It is so nice to have a relaxing Saturday!
Yesterday I made a really great banana ice cream from scratch! Was so very proud of myself. My PapaJoe made banana ice cream all the time during the hot summers at the lake. He used a wooden ice cream maker and it was a staple of 4th of July. I can just hear the sound of the handles churning away outside my grandparents lake house...it was what I looked forward to at the end of every school year. Although I used my Cuisinart ice cream maker, I think PapaJoe is still impressed. Katie is going to try some tonight...I'll post about that on Sunday!

Katie and I went to the Farmers Market, another one of the precious moments every Saturday. Saw my good friend Glenn from Mason Creek farm; they have the best, organic meat! Here is their site. I did my final package for TV 2 on the flood that had a tremendous impact on their farm. It was devastating. The package wasn't my best...I just got off my IV steroid treatment for an MS flare up, but I was proud to tell their story.
Painting the UATV studio today! Here are some of the colors we are looking to use!
Sweet Chloe Mae Simpson's birthday was Tuesday! We got her these precious TOM's! Paisley is going to look great on her!

Monday night John, Randy, Stephanie and I went to this place called 51st just a block or two from our dorm. Get this! This place had 50 cent tacos after you bought a drink - either beer or any kind of drink. Then, the whole restaurant plays TRIVIA!!! Our team was called the Okies...but after we started losing, we called ourselves the Texans. Even a better on Monday.... this man!
We were both walking to the metro and I commented on how pretty his flower were. I could smell the lillies :) - mind you all the flowers were in a box. So, when I commented on these, he said " Would you like some?" Of course!
Tuesday was the best day! I listenend in on a lot of conference calls, got some really good ideas about how I can make objectives about what I want to get out of the internship...I GOT MY OWN OFFICE. Then I read an article in the Express about this new pilates place called FUSE Pilates.
http://fusepilates.com/Such a God thing. Went in, running late, obviously. At the end of the class I introduce myself to the instructor who happens to be the owner. I proceed to tell her how I have MS, so I may not be able to balance like everyone else. Come to find out---she has MS too! That's why she started the company! Hey, God!
Today, I spoke with a lot of health LA's about getting support for a bill before it gets introduced. Congressman Burgess wants support befoore he introduces it- which I totally understand. Plus, for it to be a bipartisan piece of legislation it is smart to get the GOP on board first, then the Dems who are most likely to get onboard, anyways. It was so awesome when I finally (after listening to voice mails....) talked to a Health LA and she said, "Yes, my boss is totally behind that! My mom is on the neurology board so I totally understand!" Awesome!
The Foggy Bottom farmers market is right outside our dorm so I just happened to stroll through---and get some fresh, organic and non pesticided fruits! Cherries, strawberries and apples!
These are the cherries I bought today! Edited on Instagram on my Iphone.
Please pray for Max's soul...
