Today's Lesson
Skinless Souls and Parking Lot Madness
Ever seen that movie or perhaps commercial where the baby in the shopping cart goes rolling down the hill? Cut to today. That doesn't just happen in movies, folks. Today Fiona sailed 50 feet through the parking lot before I could catch her. But I did, she was laughing and it all turned out alright. But if I pick up smoking, this might be a clue as to why. On a side note, I was so intent on catching her that I didn't feel the pain in my feet. The Barbie bandaids holding the tattered skin to the bottoms of my feet came off as I had had an intense water running class at the Yeronga pool that morning.

Twice Cooked Duck
Maddie had trouble sleeping so she snuggled up on the couch with us to watch the Vietnamese cooking show. The chef was preparing duck for the sultan and it looked fantastic. Maddie watched quietly and intently, for she always enjoys cooking shows. She was especially taken with the twice cooked duck because her eyes grew large and she licked her lips. She turned to me and exclaimed enthusiastically, "Mom, you need to make that!" The she turned to Dan and gave him simple instructions in a very serious teacher-like voice. "Dad, when you go to work tomorrow, if you see a duck you need to catch it and bring it home."
