oh lord, stuck in Lodi again

I bought a cookbook when we moved into this house and I love it. It's the Moosewood Cookbook and tonight I am having black bean soup. You know how hunters get really excited about killing deer and eating them? I get that excited about eating plants. This black bean soup has red onions and carrots and green pepper and orange juice in it. I love eating colorful soups that I have to chew.

Bobby's birthday was on Friday. We had a birthday dinner at Larry's parents' house. He smashed a cupcake everywhere. I smashed a cupcake on my face and when I leaned in to get a picture, he started eating the icing off my face. Then we had his party and it was so much fun. I officially like his birthday more than my own.

I have Creedence songs stuck in my head. Awesome. Except I don't think "Lodi" is a very good lullaby. Sorry buddy.
