It has begun...
The 2010 Utah legislative session starts today...
the next 45 days are going to be exciting and crazy for me! I will be up at the Capitol almost everyday so if anyone has an issue they would like to address with their senator or representative let me know and I can arrange it!
Check out www.le.utah.gov for lots of good info and to track any bills you may be interested in.
ps - you can catch a glimpse of me on the news here
(don't blink or you'll miss me :)
and you can read about what our coalition has been working on here.

Aloe Vera Dessert
A few weeks ago we stopped by the Southeast Asian Market to pick up a couple of cans of green curry (makes a quick yummy meal with brown rice, chopped carrots, and low fat coconut milk!) and Nate brings this to the register. He says it looks kind of good, it's pineapple flavored, and it even comes with a spoon! All this deliciousness for a mere 89 cents.
Well, the taste wasn't as bad as I expected, a little odd, but the pineapple flavor really hides things well. The texture, however, was what I imagine nibbling on a dead jellyfish would be like. Bleh.

And that is why I love the Southeast Asian Market - you never know what adventure is waiting for you.
Remembering...
Martin Luther King, Jr. states,
“Through nonviolence and service to one another,
problems such as hunger and homelessness,
prejudice and discrimination can be overcome.”

Strep Throat
Thursday: Woke up with a mild sore throat, drank some throat coat tea and went to work, internship, & school as usual.
Friday: Woke up with fire breathing dragon attached to my right tonsil and major body aches. Guessed it might be Strep and stayed in bed all day.
Saturday 1am: Nate goes to Walgreens to get numbing throat spray because I can't swallow without crying.
Saturday 9am: We are at Urgent Care when it opens. Strep test comes back positive and Swiss doctor looks in my throat and says, "You poor woman." We get an antibiotic, pain meds, and Nate continues to be the best nurse ever. I sleep pretty much all day.
Sunday 6pm: Lots of sleep, tea, soup, and back rubs from Nate and I feel so much better. I can actually swallow without wincing and I'm no longer contagious. After being a big sick blob all weekend I finally had a bit of energy and decided to bake a thank you for Nate while he was at church. I made his favorite, peanut butter cookies, but added chocolate chips & coconut to the recipe. He was in love.
I will never take swallowing for granted again.
