Photo Finish!

I was finally able to catch up my photos a little tonight, but it took me a little while to get them onto the blog...

First, I have the photos of the hysterical kitchen brush and gloves I received as a gift from some friends at a dinner party back in February. Good clean fun!

I can't stand the smell of the gloves, though. I left them in my car for a day after I got them and the odor was NOXIOUS.  I have to get them all soaped up and use them a few times and that weird plastic smell will go away. :)

Here are some photos of the pages I did over the weekend:

New Friends and "Top Chef"

Recently, I have been hearing the name of someone and then I was exposed to his blog and then I finally met him in a work situation and tonight, we had a social engagement. It was so nice to have an opportunity to engage with someone socially and to be who I am now and not have to carry any old ghosts or baggage into the room with me. We went to Pho Van on 34th and Hawthorne and I had the MOST DELICIOUS Ginger chicken. Yum! 3 hours of conversation, good food and it was FRIDAY!!

Now, I am all set to watch some episodes from Season 5 of "Top Chef". I saw like 3 episodes 2 years ago and I have been looking for it on DVD since then. Finally, I found Season 5 on Amazon.com. I LOVE this show. It is so good to finally see it instead of remembering that I thought I liked it.

So, on this Friday the 13th, I am having a great day. Hopefully, I will be able to stay awake for a whole episode.
