1. Edamame (ed-uh-mom-ay) is yummy, but...you don't put the whole soy bean shell in your mouth. Very bad idea. I chewed it for about five minutes and tried not to choke. There was no way I was spitting that thing into my cloth napkin among twenty women who very likely knew the correct way to eat it (which is, by the way, bite the tip off and suck out the beans). Good thing I am a quick learner.
2. Always bring a change of clothes when you work in the church nursery. Now, I always bring my kids extra clothes, but come on, I am a grown up. One outfit is just fine. But ... no. It's not. There is nothing quite like having your shorts soaked by a random toddler who is bawling in your lap, "I miss my mommy!" Good thing I have kids and am used to getting peed and pooped on. This is how much it bothered me: after church, I went out to eat and then bought balloons for Maddox's party. Pee doesn't stop me.
Oh, how is the new house you ask? Well, the dishwasher is leaking again, I have headaches everyday and basically - this house hates me. The feeling is mutual. We might actually have lied when we said this was our last move. In a year, I might be ready to flee this place...or I might fall in love with it. Time will tell!
