Friday:
We spent Friday night shopping for a new mailbox as ours has been dying a slow death for the past 3 years & finally tipped completely over on Friday, never to stand upright again. My friend Delaney has mentioned this mango sticky rice at Ginger Thai a few times. We had never eaten there, but we were right by it, so we went in. Via text, Delaney told me what to order & as usual, she was 110% right. That mango sticky rice was one of the best desserts I've ever eaten. My blurry picture doesn't do it justice.

Saturday:
On Saturday morning, my friend Jaime & I walked the Richland Creek Greenway, then had brunch in Hillsboro Village. That night, I made the trek to Smyrna for a "Sugar & Spice" party my sister was hosting... Not my thing, but I took one for the team & managed to make it through the 3 hour sales pitch with only a modicum of giggling.

Sunday:
Yesterday, I went to yoga & the grocery store while John installed our new mailbox. Our neighborhood friends made 2 beer-butt chickens, so they invited us over to help them eat them. Who are we to turn down free food? So we went & had a blast. Those chickens were so good! Thanks, Bairs!

Love the orange flower in the entree. What was that made out of and did you eat it?

Renee! Long time, no comment. Welcome back! That orange flower was made out of one big carrot. It was all one piece. I actually didn't eat it because I didn't want to ruin it, but it was totally edible.
