We were visited by royalty (happens frequently), this time by the Queen of (and I kid you not) “Chenaeiouyrda” [that’s pronounced chi-na-ra, sort of]
Went to the local Rescue Squad open house and got to pretend we had broken our leg at a football game!
Got dressed up to go worship and eat a fantastic meal
at the local Hindu temple.
Celebrated a birthday – OMG Faith is 12!!
(and, yes, that IS a chemistry set she’s so excited to receive;
apparently my “nerd gene” is dominant – YES!!!!!)
Had a homemade brownie & lemonade stand
…and ate some profits
…and donated a snack to the renovation efforts at a
neighborhood arts camp.
FINALLY cleaned some space in the garage to unleash our creative spirit.
I missed Mrs. G’s open house (boo hoo), though I did bake some bread for the event (actually cheated and bought “par-baked” bread from Whole Foods and just gave it the last 12 minutes of baking for crispiness).
Had a great time eating watermelon at the Race Unity Picnic.
Went to an AMAZING gospel choir concert and got spiritually refreshed (I’m still floating!)
Had a momenatry lapse of sanity and adopted two guinea pigs – whaaaa!!
I could never be trusted to man a brownie and lemonade stand. I’d be all, nothing to see here people just a lady having a large snack.

Lemonade stands will never go out of style, thank God 🙂
