Waffle House Wedding

Is this sad or precious? I can't decide. Wish I'd been invited to the reception - I heart waffles!

For DKR

I still can't believe you called her!

This Is Some Silly Sheesh

Just like in the real world, Lando Calrissian is the best part ("another Colt 45, Billy Dee?").

These Are a Few of My Favorite Things (part deux)

Clap your hands everybody and everybody clap your hands.

Independence Day Amid Avocados

I spent the holiday weekend in Fallbrook (the avocado capital of the world [and, per Wikipedia, home of Tony Hawk - who knew?]).  Missy and I went to visit our friend Mel and her family.  

The road trip's highlights:

• running into an old Jamba colleague at In-N-Out Burger near Magic Mountain
• playing iPod "name that tune"
• driving through Claremont - home of my alma mater
• first visit to Chick-Fil-A (but only to use the bathroom)
• meeting Mel's three month old daughter Giovanna
• lounging on the beach in Oceanside
• sipping lots and lots of wine :)

The last stretch of freeway before reaching Fallbrook is called "Avocado Highway" - how totally dreamy is that?!  My inner Homer Simpson (don't we all have one?) envisions snacking my way through roads made of guacamole and trees of avocado slices on the Avocado Highway (but sadly it's just regular freeway and stuff...).

Two Great Tastes That Taste Great Together

The Sweet 'n' Lo's (my favorite old-timey country band) singing my favorite Loretta Lynn song. 

I think I'll put on the "Coal Miner's Daughter" DVD, curl up in my Holly Hobby sleeping bag and daydream about Tommy Lee Jones...

Lunch and Laughs

Had lunch today with two of my favorite pals:  Jessyka (aka Jessice) and Lori.  We giggled and gossiped the afternoon away - a wonderful time :)

FYI - try the pomegranate cider at Cato's.  It rocks!
