Kevin and I dressed as Alfalfa and Darla (of Our Gang and Little Rascals fame) for Halloween. While I can only pass as Darla if I’m standing next to Alfalfa, doesn’t my boyfriend make the best Alfalfa?

Starting around $99.95, you can get a personalized photo dog bed made for your furry little family member. Someday, when Lulu lives in the house, I intend to get her one of these, covered with a collage of Kevin to guarantee that she will fawn over it all day. Check out VisionBedding.com for more info!
Kevin says: oh, here is a fact for you
yesterday was the 207th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of San Ildefonso
which gave Louisiana back to France
Tell me, how can I not love him? He tells me random facts about American history and I bake him cookies.

As a small child I could never eat bologna. Ever. When I did, it did some VERY bad things to my gastrointestinal tract. So one day after I had eaten a bologna sandwich that I’d conned at kid at Vacation Bible School out of, I was lying on the couch moaning and complaining. My mom who usually told me to suck it up was looking at me intently. Something was clearly on her mind.”You know,” she began, “when I was nursing you, I ate a bologna sandwich once. And that was the worst diaper I ever changed.”
Thanks for the warning.
(And in case you were wonder, no, I do not have those issues with bologna anymore.)
