Oishi anniversary

Happy anniversary, to us. 3 years, officially, a decade unofficially. We celebrated early, with sushi madness at Oishi in Sudbury. If you haven't been privy to Josh's highly detailed account of exactly what we ate, here is a sampling: the torched toro roll, topped with waffer-thin slices of chili pepper in a mound of fancy mayo. Yum.

Too bad we didn't think to use this as a cake topper.

(yes, this photo has issues - it was dark)

Coloring

The Care Bears coloring book provides entertainment for all:

Jeni	and Terry (my stepfather)

Jeni in Two States

My niece, Jeni:

Open?

No, really, please don't.

El Diablo

Meg takes on the cayenne pepper chocolate ice cream cone.

Evil Cat

AKA Sage
+ stupid camera tricks

("night mode," which has rendered her freakishly see-through).

She's normally a sweet creature, but has lately taken to disappearing at night to prowl outdoors in the dark hours. Then, promptly at the crack of dawn - 5:30 sharp, she howls directly below the open bedroom window. Hence my calling her evil - this week.

The Office

The mundane. Where I work. It's one of those office farm type buildings, yes. As seen from where I'd rather be today, out among these fine allergens...if not sleeping...

Mini Produce

'Tis the season. Well, sort of. It has been a very slow starter, I guess thanks to our cold, wet spring. Here are a few small vegetable offerings.

Little Umbrellas

Nothing quite says "party" like a bunch of little umbrellas. From the bar at Sharona's 31st birthday party (reference: Sharona, below, in party attire).

A note of explanation: Lizzy weighs about 20 lbs and was using the help of the wall to prop her up during grooming. Poor fat kitty.
