My fear and The Megas

About 6 years ago I had a huge, I mean huge fear. I feared one day I would loose my best-guy-friend to stardom. See at the time he was living in Southern California, going to school at Cal State, Long Beach, making movies, playing in bands and being beautiful. One night I told him (I actually think I was crying), that I was so afraid that one day he would be famous and he would forget about me. That we might pass on the streets and not even know each other. I couldn't stand the thought of that and thankfully nor could he. See, our lives had gone different directions, he was working on becoming famous in LA and I had gotten married and was having a baby. Honestly our lives couldn't have been more different.

There is a happy ending to this story! The Megas have released their first album and are on their way to becoming famous and Eric and I are still friends. We still live pretty different lives, but we get to talk (not as much as I would like) and we are still friends. He hasn't forgotten about me, well not yet anyway. So here is my plug for The Megas. Check them out, support them, for all of you Humboldt folk, LOVE them so they have to come here and play.

My favorite gift.

The day after Christmas my best friend Kristy, her husband Greg and their two boys Luke and Peter came to stay with us.  The visit was a little crazy, good crazy, but how could it not have been, we had 10 people staying in our one and a half bedroom, one bathroom, 1000sq ft house.  There were people sleeping everywhere.  I will do anything to spend time with the Campbell's and would have them back in a second.

Kristy and I have amazingly odd connections.  (We think they are normal, they are odd to other people, hehe.)  She lives four hours from me, yet I know what she does each day of the week and if she isn't home I can most likely tell you where she is.  We talk daily and not just once or twice, I would say an average of five to seven times a day.  Usually they are not long talks, but quick check-ins, had a minute in the car, I just had to tell you something, calls.  Anyway, moving on.  I was so excited to give Kristy her Christmas gift, it was so perfect for her, I had bought it atleast a month prior to Christmas and had even considered buying it for myself it was so perfect.  So they were here and it was time to exchange gifts, I handed her the gift and she handed me mine.  I held mine, it felt, well oddly familiar.  I began to open, she began to open, we started laughing, almost to the point of crying.  We had gotten eachother the same gift.


I am having so much fun cooking and baking things out of this cookbook.  We are very healthy eaters, but this cookbook allows you to make foods even healthier with added fruits and vegetables (the greatest part the kids don't even know it).  Applesauce Muffins w/Butternut Squash, Pancakes w/Sweet Potatoes, Mac and Cheese w/ Cauliflower and many, ,many more.
