[pseudo] california rolls

another PioneerWoman adventure.  I modified these tutorials by using brown rice instead of white rice and cucumber, avocado, and cream cheese as filling instead of all the various options presented.

they tasted great (well – I thought so, but Joel wouldn’t touch them), but the presentation…well, you can see how that turned out!

friday eve funnies

I’m just sorting through some old files and came across this beautiful drawing…A friend of mine from college drew this picture for us way back (in 2006) when we announced that Joel and I were engaged.  For some reason he thought we were joking….not sure why he would have thought that ;-)

katy and joel 

Thanks Loren!  We miss you!

Happy Mother’s Day Mom!  We’re sad we couldn’t spend the day with you, but Christy and I decided to spend the day together (and I promise – there was no arguing….it was Mother’s Day after all!)  Christy and Ian came down to Seattle to join us for the LA Galaxy v. Sounders SC.
