Lab work

(Fusarium)

I have volunteered to work in one of my professors labs.
Plant Pathology!
I am pretty excited-I hope it be a little like my work at
Rice Tec (in Alvin Texas-best rice in the World).
Should be a great experience-awesome for the resume.

School is going well-as always I can't wait until this semester is over
I have big plans for the summer.

Spinach Shake


About a year ago I had a friend tell me about green shakes 

but I wasn't ready for that and I didn't think I had time to make it. 

So last week I was talking to Aurora's nursery teacher 

and she gave me a really simple recipe

-Spinach a strainer full

-half a banana-the flavor

-half a cup of apple juice

put it all in the blender

and ta-da

 So I tried it a few days later and I have done it for the past 6 days

I add ice and strawberries(if I have them) 

drinking it cold makes it taste better

I also don't like odd colored things 

so I drink it in a tall mug and with a straw

this is the first time I think in my life 

that I get a full 

5 a day for fruits and vegetables

after I drink this i try to eat more vegetables 

throughout the day.

Valentines

The shadow box I made for Valentines
Tea pot and flowers gerald got for me
he also bought me a book.
-he was so sweet this year-
My *LOVE* letters I covered

Gerald and I went out to eat this year
-I think this is the very first time we have actually gone out for Valentines-
Gerald doesn't like this holiday 
But
He knows that I do and he was very good this year. 
I think a lot of it had to do with our friend Brian 
-wanted to surprise his wife-
 he got the dinner together.
afterwards we put Aurora to bed
and we all watched X-men Origins 
it was perfect.
