I spent almost all of yesterday in the kitchen. Getting ready for VFT with a St. Patty's/last week of winter/almost spring theme, took a lot of preparing, but it was exactly what I wanted to do. Dinner started with homemade hummus and pita triangles while the troops gathered. James, Jane, Derek, Peter and special mystery guest, Lauren were all in attendance.

What we lost in an hour, we make up EVERY SINGLE day when the sun is still shining in the evening, giving us much more of a day....especially for the 9-5ers.
