Just because

I liked the way this photo came out.

13 pounds of zucchini & yellow squash $12
15 disposable plastic containers: $20
15 pounds chicken: $25
15 cans of coconut milk $33
Trip to Sam's: $200
Having a home-made answer to the daily question of "What's for dinner?" Priceless

A silver Lining

So the past few days have been kind of a wash. Hazel has been sick with a cold and a little cranky. She is feeling better though. But I was thinking that the nice thing about this little cough/cold that she has had is that her voice is a lot quieter. And that is nice when she is throwing a tantrum: the screaming is a bit easier on the ears. Kind of sad, I know, but you've got to take the good where is comes. (She is better. She didn't want anything to eat when she was really sick. So wanting a cookie was a good sign. Just not before dinner.) For Erika: This is the original of the above photo.
