Mushroom Galette

Mushrooms, red wine, fresh oregano, cheddar cheese, pastry crust, what could be better?

The guts, pre-assembly.

Can't figure out why this one is sideways, I'll fix it and re-upload.

The galette, assembled and waiting for the oven to finish heating.

Inspired by the SmittenKitchen, I love her.

Dinner

I'm on a bit of a pizza kick.

Heirloom tomatoes, goat cheese, and bacon. Yum.

Feet

Also for Danilo, although he'll have to grow a bit.

Another awesome pattern from Knitty.com.

July Cleaning

Our living room.

Not anymore though, just for one day.

We cleaned out our closet, we pared down our boxes, our apartment looked like hell, and then we got it all back into the closet (including several new boxes). We took a lot to the dumpster, and a carful to Goodwill.

It sucked but it feels good to have done it.

Pee Pee Teepees

Because it's a funny name, and because Maria was having a baby boy.

Two pee pee teepees.

And Danilo obligingly peeing on one.

Elephant Update

A few gratuitous shots of the pair.

Kaufman Stadium

Josh, trying not to look too excited.

Me, not trying to look anyway but happy.

And two attempts to take our own picture with my cell.

Beachathon

Sandy and I made tropical cocktail costumes for the Beachathon.

I was a Mai Tai and she was a Blue Hawaiian.

(We decided to put our "names" on our backs as our costumes might be a little obscure)

Mai Tai in progress.

Cocktail umbrella hat prototype.

Mai Tai try on (it ended up being shorter to accommodate running).

Cut out fruit, and the Blue Hawaiian.

The race ended up being a little lame, but we had fun getting the costumes up.
