it's been a while...




i really hate how you can't post a pic under text WHERE YOU WANT IT
why do the pics have to be on top?
this is gonna have to be addressed at the next blogger convention
chuck where are you?
anyway...

my mom just said to me, "you haven't updated your blog in a while"

the previous euro post was hard to top
very excited about my trip...i will be in milan 3 wks from today
some new developments...we are gonna spend a night in portofino
one of our italian "hosts" owns a home there

we are gonna drink rossinis

8 strawberries
champagne
To make the Rossini, puree 8 washed and hulled strawberries in a food processor or blender until smooth. Press through a sieve to remove seeds. Pour the strawberry puree into a coupe-style champagne glass. Fill the rest of the glass with chilled champagne. Garnish with a ripe strawberry. Serve immediately. Makes 1.

and...another fellow is gonna meet up with us in france on his big boat
he is single, from new zealand and only serves champagne on his vessel
this could be soul mate material

went over to the guttentaugh's for cinqo de mayo celebration last friday night
i was greeted by elan's screeching voice "aunt chrissy is here"
she was so excited to see me... as i was to see her
3 little princesses came running across the front yard (pic above cause i can't get it down here)

rianna, ava, and elan

they changed into nightgowns minutes later and played in the fresh cut grass
meesh was lookin at 3 loads of laundry for sure
max wanted no parts of the girly stuff and watched some blues clues
(pic way above)

goose made some yummy margaritas, spicy chicken and taquitos

got to see jojo/axel and the new tiffany bling...

went home with jojo/axel for a sleep over and stayed up till 4am
drank white wine and watched cape fear
