Corndogs + Avocados

I’ve been on a not-so-brief hiatus from blogging, email, my mobile phone, and the outside world in general. The end of the school year and the beginning of the school year both seem to manifest the same symptom - Liz’s disappearance from anything she does not absolutely have to do.

But I’m back! I think, anyway.

My sister blogged about our adventures at the Stockton Asparagus Festival in a timely manner. I would give her an A+. I am running at about a D- since it happened back at the end of April.

It was soooo fun! I had never really been to Stockton, so it’s cute downtown area and paddle boats were a fun surprise. The only image I had previously associated with Stockton was the hillside of windmills you drive over on the way there. Now when I think about or hear mentioned “Stockton”, the smell of deep fried monster asparagus and “I Love Rock & Roll” by the Black Hearts come to mind. Very nice.

This is where the asparagus magic all happens.

Yum!

Love food festivals!

Joan Jett and the Black Hearts were completely awesome. Holy time warp for me.

The boys were at some shoot em up action movie. Can’t remember which one now. But they missed out on some serious grub. No photos here, but just about all the food you can imagine was for sale at some booth down the line. Kim & I headed for the artisan corner of the festival and shuffled through all sorts of fabulous things I would buy if I had a house. Instead we both settled on some earrings.

I had to take a picture of Kim under this sign because it pretty much sums up any meeting of the sisters, occasionally to the annoyance of the general public. We may be goofy, but at least we keep it clean!

The Bodily’s put us up for the night in their spacious digs. Thank you thank you thank you!! We’ll be back for more soon.
