Today I received a care package from my friend Sonja. She stuffed it full of all sorts of awesome goodies! Our cupboard is now full of Trader Joe’s snacks and deliciousness.
She also sent pretty much the best birthday card ever. If only it really came with a tampon holder knitting pattern!
Sonja is also a recovering Mormon and we share a fascination and repulsion for our family histories (polygamy). I am so excited to start reading “The 19th Wife,” a polygamist murder mystery novel!
And last, but certainly not least, she sent me delicious wine from Boa Ventura Vineyard. Shh! Don’t tell anyone I’m currently enjoying a delicious glass of contraband wine. It goes perfectly with the spicy Italian sausage tomato sauce I threw over brown rice fusilli pasta from Trader Joe’s. NOM!

I’m heading back to the land of ice & snow, at least temporarily, and TJ’s is one of the things I’m going to miss A LOT.
And when exactly is your birthday? ‘Cause mine was yesterday, the 3rd, and it would be reallyreally kewl if your’s were the same!

I am so excited to have run across your blog! I too am a blogger and an ex-Mormon. I ran across it when I ran a Google search for the song: “Saturday is a special day…” Anyhow: I appreciate your honest, well-written, and very interesting posts. This actually made my day!
