It's a bomb roll: tempura fried lobster tail, cream cheese, and crunch flakes wrapped in thin sliced cucumber, served skewered in a martini glass with carrot strings and parsley.
Mom just took schlepping the boys to them off my plate. "I think you have too much on your plate. I'm done tutoring, I can go get them."
I love my mom. I wasn't going to ask.
Dang, that's a helluva dinner, Matt! Beats my two pieces of cold and lonely gefilte fish.
That's a whole lot to handle, Steph. At least some of it is happy making (if still stressful), and you and Tim can lean on each other through the rest. That is of the good.
Hee, David.
Better thing you took care of biz when they had a crisis on your first day.
Matt, that is A Dinner.
Aw, Tep, I'm sorry that you are at the overwhelming point. It must feel like a struggle just to make it through the day.
We went bowling today, where I had a mimosa and watched the kids play. It was fun-ish.
I'm scrolling through old pics of mine on flickr. I found this picture which is my proof that Noah looks Just Like I Did: [link] (Pic of Noah in front of his bug research for comparison: [link] Everytime people say that Grace looks just like me, I can't agree because Noah is my spitting image from childhood.
TWO CUTIEHEADS
Indeed.
Kat, I had one of those cakes, too.

What she said. I'm sorry it's so overwhelming right now.
I've read some forums that refer to it as "low carb flu," with brain fog and other symptoms.
And yet people eat like this for years? I don't think I could. Today we went to the farmers market and bought lots of yummy fruit for everyone else, and some yummy chili/lime pistacios for me.
