Have Hoop Will Travel

Sergio ordered a hula hoop for me and it finally arrived last weekend. Sparkly, purple, sprinkled with the moon and the stars -- it's beautiful. And it's collapsible.

Up to speed...

It's a new to me computer.



I'm so happy!! It's a hand-me-down from Sergio. He cleaned it up, installed stuff he thought I would want, and gave it to me. Yep. He's the best.



Now I feel like I'm moderately hip with the times. Seriously, my old machine REQUIRED at least one system crash before I was able to continue using it EVERY TIME I started it up.

Green Fairy

Fresh picked presents on our doorstep today!



The note:

Hi Guys! The garden is growin'. You will start to benefit...now. Mixed lettuc (and a few chives)

Garden Pesto: Arugula, parsley, basil, lemon, garlic, evoo, s&p, parm & pine nuts.

All should be consumed with alcohol.

xx Jen.

Yes ma'am and THANK YOU!

P.S. I realize now that Green Fairy has many connotations, one refers to a special herb. I tweeted about this post and picked up a new follower who is probably quite disappointed that I'm merely referring to benign lettuce, chives, and pesto. sorry guy!

I suppose, if I had stayed home and actually rested instead of gone out and partied just as I was getting better, I wouldn't be home from work now. I was on my way to work when one of my cough attacks happened and I almost caused an accident. So, I promptly pulled off the freeway and came home to make an appointment with my doctor. Let's see...we calculate that it's been just shy of two weeks now that I've been sick. Very irritating.

Thanks to Quynh though, I get to wear these wonderful slippers while I'm at home, waiting to go to my appointment:



Love. No actual lamb is in these slippers. All man-made materials so I think they're even vegan! The most wonderful, cozy slippers ever!!! I had never heard of this line but Alpna apparently already has the pajamas that match. I've been wearing them sparingly because I don't want to muss them up too quickly. But, I think a sick day is a perfectly acceptable occasion to wear then ALL day.

Best. Husband. Ever.

We said no presents. So he got me this for Christmas.

For those of you who do not reside in L.A., Burke Williams is a delicious SoCal based chain of day spas. This little flat burgundy box is perhaps one of the best gifts you could ever receive. @ least IMO.
