  3. I loved the into and everything!!! Glad your kidneys are okay! Have fun in the Ozarks. Haven't been there in YEARS.

    F My Life sounds soooo good! I've been on the site before, though.

    And I do believe you said "Noël" right, because in French, I learned that if it has the two dots of a letter than you pronounce those two vowels...

    I really wanna read Ballads of Suburbia! AND Boyology sounds really good! I would love to read something like that.

    :)

  4. Awesome week and glad you're feeling better!

    It wasn't just you, when you held up Gravel Queen I was wondering what KStew was doing on the cover of it, lol And I love the picture you got from Vania - her photos rock!

  5. Here's my vegetarian speech (I used to write health books), although you probably already know all this: You can get wonderfully complete protein by combining any legume (such as beans, lentils, split peas) and any grain. Like a peanut butter sandwich - of course milk helps, too. I'm not vegetarian any more (I can't eat wheat, rye, or barley, so decided my diet was too limited) but I still eat tons of brown rice and black beans - very healthy. Also wonderfully cheap, handy once you are out on your own. Buy the dry ones, soak overnight, cook, add spices, and enjoy.

    And take B vitamin supplements.

  6. Bianca: You could not possibly love the intro, but whatever. The Ozarks were pretty fun, now I am at my Noonie & Kap's right now. F My Life is pretty funny. I know that Noël is how you are taught to say it but I have heard more people say Nole, so I was confused. Oh, and I have awesome news I will be in KC this year for a weekend! My sister has a cheer competition there, but I don't know the date at the moment. I will keep you posted.

    Amber: Yep, it's K-Stew with better hair. I am just not loving the Joan Jett cut on her.

    Sara J. Henry: Thank you so much for the tips! I know most of what I need to be doing as a vegetarian, but I am just bad about doing it. I will keep those in mind though and if I ever have and questions I will be sure and ask you!
