Hello, Mountain Man. What's with the beard -- a little Mose-Schrute-esque, no?
ReplyDeleteI don't know who Mose Schrute is, but I do sometimes talk to Colin in an Amy Poehler voice when he looks like a "mountain man."
ReplyDeleteThe beard is gone now, but was replaced for about a week with an interesting mustache. You'll see when I get around to posting Xmas tree pictures.
Yeah, the beard's a little much. But your hair looks awesome! And if you want to make any of that pasta when you're in DC... I won't stop you :)
ReplyDeleteDude I will cook whatever you want while I'm in DC. Gotta pay my way, right?
ReplyDeleteThe hair was an experiment with hot rollers and I guess it was a success?
OMG lady! My clothes got tighter just LOOKING at that! Yuuum.
ReplyDeleteThat bruschetta and chocolate cake look amazing.!
ReplyDeleteeverything looks yummy, esp the cake!
ReplyDeleteOMG! I am so hungry now!!Can I have the recipe for the pasta? Everything looks so tastey, but the pasta sounds divine.
