Here's a picture of some made-from-scratch ragu that Chef Monika cooked at our cooking class on the 20th. It was so good we decided to try making it again this weekend.

Here is our version. Turned out delicious!

I got an awesome quilt for my birthday made out of my old t-shirts. I've been wanting one for years! Amazing gift.

Happy birthday to me!

For my birthday this year, I drug my DH, parents and DH's "little" to Bloomsbury Farm for some fall fun. It was really windy, but we had lots of fun.
