Trying Something New
Last night I took my first Nia class. It's billed as, "a sensory-based movement practice that leads to health, wellness and fitness." Think Yoga meets modern dance and throw in a healthy dose of introspection. I'm definitely interested in trying it again! If I can work up a sweat while dancing I consider that to be a well spent evening. Throw in a couple of friends and I call it victory.
"Grilling Out"
Where I'm from, cooking outside is called bar-b-queing. I've quickly learned since moving below the Mason/Dixon Line that this is an inaccurate use of the word "bar-b-que." Barbecue is a specific preparation that is NOT THE SAME as grilling over coals outside. Last weekend we had two very yummy opportunities to grill-out with friends. No barbecue sauce involved.
Twin boys & Birthday Parties & Puppet Shows
I had the pleasure of attending a birthday party for my very favorite set of twins in the whole wide world. Max and Sam just turned one. To celebrate the occasion, their incredibly talented aunt & uncle put on a puppet show! Obviously, Max & Sam were delighted and it was nearly impossible to contain the cuteness.
How do you spell BBQ? Bar-b-que or Barbecue? Please discuss...
