Tiki Cake for Josh's Halfway Party

Couldn't resist showing off the tiki cake I did for Josh's 40th birthday, complete with torches and tiki font.
Take that Trader Vic's!

Berry heaven and blue poop

If you have an (almost) two year and a blog, you really have to talk about poop, right?

We spent an amazing couple of days in Oregon and in the company of wonderful friends, seeing new places and eating dozens of times a day. We made our pilgramage to Powell's Books, which I will go into in another post. Miss A weathered the trip like a trooper, always happy when she's moving forward whether by plane or car or boat or train. She romped in their garden, in the playgrounds, Oregon State's campus, on the beach in Newport and up and down Rich and Tani's stairs. Oregon is berry heaven and she completely devoured several pints of fresh organic local berries on Friday, literally cleaning out the fridge. On Saturday everything turned blue, her diaper, her poop, the contents of the bathwater... everything. It's an image that uh... lingers, I promise you. Miss A wasn't detered and didn't complain, mind you, just strongly resembled Violet Beauregarde.

Juicing room, anyone?
