thirty-two.

I give in rather easily.
Under the certain circumstances, it's normally not a big deal, but when I get stressed, I just give in. And by "give in" I think you know what I mean. D: Rawr.

Thank God that I'm home now. And, as my welcome home gift, my dad made YOGURT. :D

Yesterday's breakfast:



plain greek-style yogurt with kashi
black currant cereal, honey and mashed banana.



hello deliciousness.
and my first cup back home:
pomegranate green tea in my "georgia" tea cup.



And, my camera's all fixed up so the pictures are much clearer. That means I finally get to return to flowery picture collection:



the very last of the pear blossoms & daffodils.



Brunch today was my dad's own special creation: carrot-split pea soup. It's delicious! The carrots taste almost like sweet potatoes (my neeew obsession) and the peas have no pea-y taste.

Brunch:



and homemade bread with brie spread on.



I believe my parents are really hippies. My mom's gone to making bread (never buys any from the store!) and listens to Celtic tunes along with the Beatles. My dad's growing sprouts and making homemade yogurt. *looks up hippie in the dictionary and sees their picture* I should have known.

Meet another member of our family:



El Tigreee
He's the last surviving kitty of the household. :(

All the others have gone on into the great
kitty scratching post in the sky.

he's a bit of a loner though.
likes to kick it by himself.


The momma and I had a fun girl's day out and went shopping. What better shopping is there than the grocery kind? :) I found Snap Pea Chips. Weirdest idea ever but they are SO yummy. And another tasty junk food:




Suppa':
the madre and I hit up the chinese buffet.


one of two plates of chinese-y goodness.
so many types of delicious sushi and seafood.

Food wasn't the only goodie found today. Introducing my new cupcake bowl:





more homemade yogurt with a warm
white chocolate macadamia clif bar.

oh my goodness, best flavor ever.
I almost died.

Right now, I'm having a little late night TV time: 102 Dalmatians. Los perritos son muy monos.

Oh, and I thought I'd share a few of my other purchases of the day:



a $3.50 blue linen dress.



a $6 hot pink luella skirt.



a $15 purple free people dress.
(the color is much different- more purple-y)

Anyone ever heard of Plato's Closet? It has the best deals! I'm a huge Free People (and Juicy Couture) fan so I'm in a fantastic mood! (much better than last week's icky slump.)

Hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday night. ♥

I am so jealous of your family! (Not that my own isn't awesome, haha, but I would love a dad who makes his own yogurt ;) My mom has always made our bread, too, although sometimes we like to try breads from the bakery for fun.

Delicious eats! And gorgeous, gorgeous photos-- there's nothing that can lift one's spirit like a bouquet of fresh flowers :)
