Stayed up WAY too late

9AM-Step 1 of donut recipe (let rise), 11AM-Step 2 of donut recipe (let rise), 2PM-Beer tour and sampling at Jester King with Katie, Roel, Noah, Drew, and Evan, 6PM-Step 3 of donut recipe (let rise), 7PM-Start frying crazy food at Brooke’s Fry Party, 9PM-Eat Snickers and Nutella stuffed donuts.  11PM-Evan wins marshmallow competition, Adell wins favorite fry food competition.  I’d say it was a good day!

To celebrate the recent Toopher success, we decided to have a fancy dinner out with Josh and Kristin.  We loaded up on carbs with a side of carbs.  It was fantastic!

My center-of-Austin grocery store is constantly packed: dorm resident college students, moms with multiple toddlers on food stamps, yoga pant wearing yuppies, an occasional bearded lady (not a joke).  Anyway, in many ways I love the diversity, but certainly not the crowds.  THIS picture was taken at the new HEB Plus in the burbs.  At 5:10PM.  On a week day.  With empty, wide isles.  And NO LINES!  I’m totally coming back!

We had an ice cream party after school, but had just enough left over to take home.

And recovering quite well!

She couldn’t focus her eyes on anything, but somehow was still purring like crazy and sweet as can be.
