Salad Man made good on yet another salad tonight. This time it was the garlicky chicken, fresh mozzerella, cherry tomatoes, fancy lettuce and a balsamic vinegrette with (I’m quoting here) “a half cup of sugar in it”. I was glad to assist as sous chef – cubing cheese and chicken. Dang if it wasn’t the tastiest concoction this side of the Big Blue! Lloyd said it had the perfect lettuce-to-non-lettuce-items ratio of any salad he’s ever had.

Prototypin’
Brad is a cereal eater, and since he’s a guy, his custom is to rinse off his cereal bowl and spoon and set them by the sink to use again the next day. Since I’m a girl, I kept putting his bowl in the dishwasher every other summer. Oops! So this year, we’ve got the perfect solution! Lloyd helped with it’s construction – he’s got mad Dremel skills – and made the spoon notch just right!
It’s Summer
Brad’s back, let the fun begin.
Anyone need a place to stay for the 4th? We still have room, but beds are filling up fast.
He was here, but now he’s gone….
To prove that Brad was really here, I offer you this montage of his visit. ‘Bye, Brad. Have fun at school this week. We’ll miss you.
Bringing giant tulips from Amsterdam. (And Pepsi made with real sugar, which we forgot to sample. Dang it.)
The hard-working siblings – what a team!
We ran into two models at the airport! Wheee-whooo! (That’s a whistle.)
Happy Birthday, Brad!!
There’s no getting around it. You can’t call yourself somebody’s friend if you haven’t built a shrine to them. (Right now you’re thinking, “Well of course, but where am I going to fit in a shrine?”) In a spare closet, silly!
We began our Shrine to Brad awhile ago, and it has grown greatly thanks to Beth providing photos and confirmation bulletins, Brad conveniently forgetting things when he leaves, and also snapping up his stuff off of eBay. (Thanks, Denis.) Be sure to notice the driftwood snake – courtesy of Grandpa Hummel -and the larger-than-life portrait of Ned. I’ll be glad to field any questions, and a free-will basket will be located at the door.
