Jai Nepal!

This evening, Katie and I are hosting the Garden Party for Nepal in the backyard. It's a welcome home from college party for Katie and a send-off to Nepal party for me. But, REALLY, it's designed to keep my heebie jeebies at bay. As I write this, I am about 54 hours away from boarding a plane for Kathmandu, and my pre-trip anxiety has started to kick in. Being the smart person I am, I have learned a thing or two about living with me and knew that I would need a distraction------PAAARTYYYYYYYY!!! So, today, instead of 'checkin' my list, checkin' it twice', I'm looking for that tequila punch recipe and thinking about what time I'll put the brownies in the oven. Smart.
