we feel blessed with our families and the people who love us.

mmm.

fresh salsa, baby.
the most delicious dinner to have on a day you don't feel much like cooking.
or a hot day.
or for a snack.
or any day, really.

absolutely delicious.

one can of black beans
one can of corn kernals
two tomatoes
one or two avocados
one lemon, freshly squeezed
some salt
fresh cilantro

rinse, chop up, squeeze, sprinkle and mix those up.
eat on tortilla chips or on thinly sliced zucchini.

enjoy!

in memory

in memory of my dear red bike.

we bought you second hand.
you had rust on your body and you squeaked when i went too fast.
you had a bell that i rung and brian put a basket on you so i could go to the grocery store.

i went outside to take you for a ride this morning and you were gone.
i'm sad and i'll miss you.

sincerely,
-lauren

p.s. to whoever stole it?

....you're a jerk.

its hilarious!
