Time for a little housekeeping here.

Our friends in Vancouver also asked us to share 6 Random Things about ourselves.

1. Matt can't taste rosemary or so he says. I have no way of testing this.

2. Stanley Clarke once told Kat she should play bass because of her long hands.

3. Matt, yes the all things pork loving Matt, was a vegetarian for a couple of years. He gave it up because of the lack of good vegetarian options at the University of Michigan.

4. Kat once drove Radiohead around Minneapolis in her car. Thom Yorke had the flu but was still very nice.

5. Matt's second & third toe on his left foot are joined together. I never noticed until he showed me today.

6. Kat doesn't eat syrup on pancakes or french toast. She also doesn't eat jelly or jam on toast or bread. Just bring on the butter.

Here's 5 blogs I'd pass these awards along to...

    Thanks everyone for your comments. To answer the Radiohead question, I worked in the music industry for about 17 years for a distribution company & then a label. So often it was my job to get bands to various places. Ah, the stories I could tell ;)

    Why thank you Kat :) I *bet* you've got some marvelous music industry tales to tell! Somehow you'll have to spill them interspersed with these marvelous recipes. :)

    RADIOHEAD!!!

    Although, in my head, I think that's being eclipsed by the toes stuck together. Joined together?! How does *that* work!?

Thanks for your comments! Matt & I love to read them but if you link to online drugs or real estate or such in anyway we will delete you. Due to the amount of spam we are now moderating all comments.
