Quick Update

Happy 4th, everyone! Currently stuffed to the MAX on good fourth of July food — oysters (yum yum!), corn on the cob, bruschetta, tri tip, chicken, chips n' salsa, you name it, we ate it. I'm going to explode.

Family tradition has us at the Trinity River at a friends' house enjoying the sun, water and, inevitably, food. The running joke there is "oh my god, it's been ten minutes since we last ate. Who's hungry?" and "'I'm full' is no excuse for not eating." Sad but true — catering to the nation's obesity, but tempered with river rafting, racing up and down a rather impressive hill for beer, water and food, volleyball, frisbee, snake, and horseshoes.

So not much to fill you in on here, but I did want to mention — pictures taken of last night's sumptuous meal and final wine selection (neither zin nor dream weaver), along with a rather risky chocolate avocado cake recommended to me. If you can get past the booger-green frosting, it's delicious. My boyfriend kept repeating that it looked like the Hulk had exploded all over it. Pictures will be put up tomorrow, because today's revelry has me too tired to upload them :)

Ciao for now.
