A little lesson in chemistry


Question: What happens when you use your new, fabulous Williams Sonoma juicer to juice a basket of freshly picked apricots, you then put the juice in a clamp top water bottle from Ikea, take the bottle to work, forget about it sitting next to your desk for a few days including a weekend, leave it in your hot car for a day?
Answer: When you finally flip the clamp top lid up there is the loudest explosion you have ever heard, you cover your head and wait for police officers to rush to your door to investigate the gun shot coming from your house, then you look up..........


Then you make promise to never try to be healthy and bottle your own juice again and then spend the next 2 hours washing every surface in your kitchen.

Zucchini Pizza


So, I must confess I spend an unhealthy amount of time on Pintrest. Pinning all sorts of great ideas. Today I realized what is the point of all of this pinning if I don't ever do anything I pin. So I decided to start with a simple pin. I have tons of squash in my garden so the timing was perfect. It was delicious and super easy I think it will become a summer favorite for sure.

Here is a short quiz -


True or false - it is snowing outside



Or could it be in that in the 5 short minutes I left Ruby Foo alone on the balcony has she chewed a hole into a down comforter?
Reminder she has been labeled an indisciminate chewer by the vets at the critical care hospital.



So far there are no signs that I need to rush her to the SLC critical care hospital for feathers in her lungs or stuck in her nose. My savings account is grateful for that.
