VD in review

We didn't make it to Taco Del Bus thanks to my cold that has reappeared, now with 30% more unattractiveness! Mike, Nathan and I celebrated a family Valentine's Day at Casa de Denny's. Have you ever driven by Denny's or some other chain diner and wondered, "It's Valentine's Day, who would eat there?" Let me answer that: I would. And Mike would. And Nathan would, but only because we strap him into a high chair and stuff star-shaped nuggets into his toddler maw. Our low-brow family dining preferences combined with my lifelong ambivalence toward flowers (starbucks gift card > soon to be dead roses) made for a a wonderful evening with my two favorite boys.

Also, My dear friend Deece knitted me a scarf with pockets! It is a beautiful creation that just blows my mind because now I do not have to go to Target to pick up new mittens or steal gloves from hobos (again). I wish I had some yarn or knitting vernacular because all I can say is that it is very well done.



And in addition to a fabulous pocketed scarf, she knitted matching hats for Mike and Nathan. See how much Nathan loves it?



And here's a question: Do I look Japanese? I mean, if you didn't know that I'm Chamorro and from Saipan, would you think, "Wow, she could totally be backup for Gwen Stefani and giggle whenever Gwen says, 'Super kawaii!'"



Domo, my internet tomodachis!
