Holy Cannolli!
Ohhhh myyyy.
I just want to say--it is difficult to live with someone who doesn't have to eat healthy. While Daniel is enjoying his chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream I'm trying to control my sugar cravings with a glass of skim milk (which actually works, surprisingly). I'm not a total stickler. Usually on the weekends I'll allow myself to a few treats or a drink or two. But I'm determined to live a healthy life. For the children.
I've never been a huge fan of vegetables, but I have actually found some fun recipes. For example: two nights ago I sliced some green and yellow squash length-wise (a julienne slice), spread it on a cookie sheet, sprinkled a bit of salt and pepper on it, and stuck it in the oven for a few minutes at 300. It was a hit! Daniel and our guests ate every last one of them.
Baked squash fries?
Tonight I'm having a couple of girls over to bake and decorate some cupcakes. We are having a little farewell party for one of our co-workers who is moving away. Hopefully I'll be able to manage the temptation of cake and frosting that I will have before me. But...I have to taste-test everything right??
In other news: there was a solar eclipse in Hong Kong yesterday! There are a few people on Flickr that posted photos. Neat.

Something New
This evening I tagged along with my friend Cassidy as she had her bridal portraits done.
I took a few pictures myself--from a distance. I didn't want to get in the photographer's way. I don't want to spoil the surprise of her wedding day, but she posted a couple on Facebook, so I think it's ok to post them here!
Obviously, I edited the photos a little. And I don't have Photoshop, so I did what I could with iPhoto. The evening sun was so beautiful and I wanted to give them a little "ethereal" boost.
It was really fun. And Cassidy is like, the most gorgeous person alive. And she takes good pictures.
It's disgusting.
In other news, we are puppy-sitting for the weekend. A friend from work left town and needed a place for her little dog Chewy to stay. So here he is.
He's normally an only child, so it's taking him some time to adjust to my crazy, retarded, rambunctious Yorkies. They don't quite know what to make of him.
They're so retarded.

But I love them.
Oh, how I love them.
I think it's a disorder.
