1) Cardinals lost, sad. But they put up a good fight! Excellent performance for their first SB appearance. (Hey, sean's SB too! It can stand for so many things: superbowl, strongbad, super belly...)
2) Our washing machine (shared by the other apartments in this building) had been emitting an odor, recently, that could probably have induced vomiting. Sean discovered the source. A frog. A very dead, very thoroughly washed frog. The front-loader has some folded plastic to seal the door (see picture, by that little water puddle) and the poor little amphibian must have gotten stuck in a fold. From where did this frog come? I don't think I've ever seen one in Utah. Perhaps it was some innocent pet? Sean actually touched it before he knew it was a frog and practically flipped out from the gooeiness of it. And gave him the willies for the rest of the night (me too, and I didn't even touch it!). I know at least one of our loads must have been washed with said frog inside the machine... ugh.
3) I went to a new mother's meeting (NO I AM NOT PREGNANT) that our stake provided- since it's likely that some day in the future I'll be a mom, I thought it would be helpful. But then a nurse started talking about miscarriages and all the talk about blood made me sooo woozy and light-headed. What is WRONG with me? Why does anything blood-related pull my consciousness right out of me? It's super annoying!
4) Sean and I made a choclate strudel. It turned out... pretty good. Next time, I need to put more layers of phyllo on the outside so it'll keep it's structure. And I won't use hazelnut, it's a bit too overpowering. Some other nut perhaps...
5) We went out for sushi this weekend. Delectable! The more I have it, the more I like it. My favorite is the Philadelphia Roll. What's your favorite?
Well, I still have the willies from that frog story. Yowsers!
Here's Katie and Smokey, the LOST monster. We took this at Dillingham Ranch on Oahu, where they film the jungle scenes for LOST. Luckily, we caught Smokey out of his trailer and he was kind enough to pose for us.
One of the awesome pictures Katie took of pineapples. I don't know if she's posted this one already or not.
Flowers at the Lai'e Temple. Too cool.
I made up a campaign poster for '12. I've got trendy catchwords and an electrifying image. Vote for me...?
My magnificently smart husband was inducted into Phi Kappa Phi tonight and I accompanied him to his inaugural dinner. For a small fee. Uh, a not so small fee.
Look, I curled a strand of hair for the occasion. Special.
Interesting centerpiece: vase filled with water, a few pebbles, and a lovely little ribbon. Hmm.
A luscious salad made of lettuce and... a slice of tomato. I must admit, though, the ranch dressing was very pleasant.
The carrots and potatoes had some weird herb taste. But the chicken was glazed with an apricot sauce, I think. Tasty.
Sean stood proudly as he was inducted into the society, while I gazed adoringly. Though I gaze in the way quite often.
That's a SNOUT!
Attack!!! 
I love how this looks, what cool fur!
Sean's a curious kid.
Eye popping
Heeee! heeheehee!
I'm pretending my head's mounted on the wall too. Can't you tell?
Quite the stunt man! I mean, stunt skunk.
Ack! Run!!
