So I got to spend yesterday crafty scrappin' and card makin' with my mama and her friend Sue.  

What a great time we had!  Of course, when my mama comes, we always put together some sort of pot lucky kind of dinner.  Sue brought this awesome salad that she got at Costco (baggged salad) that had kale (which I don't eat on a regular basis), broccoli, thinly sliced brussel sprouts, cranberries, pumpkin seeds a few other green lettucy items and poppyseed dressing.  If you can't tell by me describing everything in it, it was FABULOUSLY YUMMY!!!  

Can you guess what my midnight snack was last night?  =)
