Just Returning...

From a trip home to NC.  Now there is laundry to wash, suitcases to empty, and groceries to buy.  Now if I can just muster up the energy to get started!  That three hour time difference is a doozy!  (Not to mention traveling alone with a three year old and a one year old!  Elon did wonderfully, but Asher, well-- that's a different story!)


Unfortunately, Elon, Asher and I all had a stomach virus for half of our time in NC.  No matter, we still had a lot of fun and managed to squeeze in a trip to the coast!  Sigh, one day on the beach is just never enough!  I am so glad I was still able to eat with the virus, because one of the best things about the South is the food!  And I definitely ate my share-- fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, buttermilk buscuits, hushpuppies, sweet potato casserole-- just to name a few!  Oh I already wish I would've eaten more....

I'm guessing the princess has moved along?

Sounds like a good trip! If you find some energy, pass it along my way, would you?

HOW do you stay so skinny? I think I'm gaining weight just reading about that good food! :)

I'm glad you had a great time, and I hope the settling-in/adjusting-to-different-time-zone goes well.
