Do you remember when I told you about the Lafayette Boathouse that was destroyed by arson. It was a big loss for our community. The boathouse at Waneka Lake was a nice little gem in our town. Children and adults enjoyed what it had to offer, and in 2007, it was senselessly burned to the ground.
The boathouse will be finished soon. The fleet will be back in the water this summer. There will be a ribbon cutting ceremony and grand opening next month - details to follow.
I had a fun time dying Easter eggs with my girls last night. It's something I did with my mom each year, even after I was in college. Even after I was married, Jeremy and I would go to Mom's house and spend a fun evening over dinner and dying eggs. Much of it was spent laughing over who could make the most crazy or unique egg, or who could develop the most interesting method of dying the egg.

I think my husband had a lot of fun dying his Easter eggs, but he may have some holiday confusion.
Deviled Egg
You know I love coffee. I love all types of coffee, but my favorite is a non-fat Latte, no flavor. I occasionally order this small indulgence from a local Starbucks. I usually order "Grande Skinny Latte."
This is all wrong!
A friend recently told me, as a little trivia tidbit, "Did you know that if you order a Grande Skinny Latte instead of a Grande Non-Fat Latte, you will pay 30 cents more for your coffee?" I was horrified! Skinny, Non-Fat, what's the difference? 30 cents for a word that has been ingrained in us by all those Starbucks baristas: Skinny.
