Mark makes me laugh
Last night Mark and I decided to go to dinner and then a movie. I suggested that we go to Red Robin since we had a gift card, and also because it is right next to the movie theater. We each ordered a burger. When the waitress brought our food, Mark asked for some A-1 sauce. The waitress brought Mark a tiny cup of A-1. Mark took a bite of his burger and then had a sip of A-1, and then swished it around to savor the vintage. It was so funny, I was cracking up. He only did it a couple of times, but is made me laugh just the same.
For the movie, we went to see Julie and Julia, it was a good movie. We liked it because it was about two couples that were already in love, not a meet-cute or cheesy falling in love story.

Strawberries, Skunks, and Arianne
What a crazy title.
Strawberries
Yesterday I was able to pick eight strawberries from my garden. This was very exciting because usually the birds eat them before I have a chance to pick them. I had two daycare kids at the time of harvest, so I felt like I needed to share with them. We each had two, and then I saved two for Mark. They tasted so good. They were not as big as the ones we get in the store but they had so much more flavor.
Skunks
Last night about 10:00 Mark and I were driving home from Target. As we were driving we started to smell a skunk. I don't think there are very many skunks around where we live because we rarely smell them. We both commented on how strange it is to smell a skunk, and how long it had been since we smelled one. We then commented on how often we would smell them in Sonoma County, and that in a weird way the smell was sort of comforting. The stinky smell of a skunk did not seem so bad, and it made us think of home. Totally crazy :-)
Arianne
Tonight we were able to spend some time with Arianne. She was in town for a court date. After court Mark took her to the social security office, and then we all went to Ruby Tuesday's for dinner. It was good to see her. It seems that she has grown up a lot since living on her own. We have a nice time wtih her.
