Yippie skippie! Please stay tuned for new recipes, new adorable animal+veggie photos, and happy plant-related stories from other veggie addicts. Also, we still want to hear from YOU!

Happy Birthday Louie.
Girls, if you're ears are craving some nice sappy rainy day music, go here: http://myspace.com/futureofforestry and listen to "If you find her". It's pretty. I can't say much for the rest of the songs though.
Tomorrow is monday. I'm learning to avoid sinking into depression on Sunday nights. It's not easy. I don't like the close of a weekend.
I've been laughing a lot lately. Mainly because life has been testing my will, and laughter seems to be the easiest way out of certain situations:
- My curling iron broke in my hands, while I was curling my hair at 6 in the morning. It litterally fell into pieces in my right hand.
- Lola got outside, and ran around the house as D and I chased her, yelling at each other, the neighbors all the while thinking we're insane (welcome to the neighborhood).
- I almost got into a big wreck with huge truck that didn't want to use it's blinker but wanted to take over my lane.
- I've stepped in cat vomit so many times over the last few months. Now I'm making sure to put my glasses on before I step out of bed, and look down constantly.
- My phone charger for my car decided to die, so I took it to Verizon and got a new one - covered under warranty (yay!). Then the new one broke, a piece of it snapped off while it was in my phone. Go figure, that situation wasn't covered under warranty.
At the moment I'm enjoying the sound of the rain, and watching all of the cats sleep. I am surrounded by love. In so many beautiful forms.
D went to bed early, but he got up early too. So I tucked him in and plopped back down on the couch in the living room, in front of our tree. I love our home. I love knowing that my bed is his bed. I love kissing him when he walks through the door, and kissing him goodnight.
I am blessed.
It looks as though I'll be acompanying Strix Vega with some harmonies on their next ep. I can't say no to friends, and I can't say no to singing with Colin.
The little brother is coming home to visit on the 20th. I cry when I think about how far he's come. I just can't wait to see him - to see him in his uniform. and how thankful I am that he's alive and healthy.
Happy Birthday Louie.

"i like a sleigh ride"
Nov. 24th, 2007 08:13 pmThanksgiving was a complete hit - minus the stress of food/party prep. It was wonderful having a mix of family and friends, lots of laughter, and even a few happy tears.
I think that D and I pulled off being quite the domestically blissful Thanksgiving husband and wife. And we've got the leftovers to prove it. If anyony wants to come over for a snack this weekend there's still a plethora of vegan and non-vegan eats.
At the moment I'm sitting on my couch, listening to Nat King Cole sing "Mrs. Santa Claus", sipping on a cold beverage, and starring at our Christmas tree (I named him George).
Yep.
D and I couldn't wait to get our tree, so we spent all day ringing in the Yule-tide cheer - while creating a couple of our own holiday traditions. George sits right in front of our huge living room window, so people can see the tree as they drive by our house...a silly thing I've always wanted to have since I was small.
My little snowy village is set up on the piano, the candles are a glow - and before we decorated the tree we both danced in the kitchen, took a shot of our hard alcohol of choice, I strung the lights (white ones this year - my fav), and D put the star on the top. We finished decorating the tree together and listened to Christmas music - the old timey kind...my favorite.
Thank you to Andrew, Jess and Jude for our first "Foster's" Christmas tree ornament. We love it - and it fits our home perfectly.
Now we get to plan our house-warming/holiday party!!!! I am really excited about this - and so is D!! The theme will guarantee fun for all, I promise!
Time to get ready for a night out.
