Holy! This is pretty awesome.
First of all...I want to make it clear that in #25...I didn't eat the rabbits...raising them kinda makes it sound like I did. I also not eat the chickens.
Second, if it doesn't stop raining here (I mean the huge monsoon rain we have been having) I will no longer love Portland. I will move to a sunny beach soon.
And last, I think the listening to Bob Marley, was not that severe...I only has a couple of cds and fully lacked the dreads and the stinky hippy smell.
The rest of this story is true.
Thanks sisters!

Michelle is cool. I want to be a chicken farmer too. And I want you girls to play Go Local with me this summer again! Pretty please?

Michelle said...

Dear Heather,
I have a Go Local Plan. I am going to try to get a bunch of our fans from our catering company to do it and then link to you. What do you think?
I want to get started super soon.-M

ohh we forgot to mention something else:
***** Michelle has received swimming nose plugs to wear because of her shooting soda out of her nose in laughter.
and there was a time where we couldn't go into a restaurant without spilling the water, tea, soda or whatever all over the table. Oh wait, that wasn't just you... heheh..
