Fun weekend ahead!

I've been watching a cute, feel-good Korean show and there was a quote I liked today.  I have no idea if it's a true saying or if it is one in Korea or what, but the main girl character said something like: "It is said that if you share your worries, they are cut in half.  If you share your joys, they are doubled".  I like that.

I am getting ready for my parent's 40th anniversary bash we're having here on Saturday.  It's going to be so much fun!  I made a 3 tiered cake.  The smaller 2 are allergy free, while the bottom is a plain white cake. I filled it with fresh strawberries and just frosted it plainly.  I went to the grocery store and got some nice flowers on clearance to put on it.  I hope it turns out well.

I've been settling more in to the gluten/dairy/egg/soy free life more.  Soy is most definitely the hardest to avoid.  It's in a lot of thing's, even grilled meat!  Which is scary, because an over-consumption of the stuff can lead to breast cancer in women and infertility in men.  But it's cheap to grow and so sneaked in to a lot of our food.

I wish Brent was more supportive.  He acts like it's this huge pain in the bum and an inconvenience for him.  It's aggravating.  Like tonight, I was trying to feed Audrey and myself some dinner since he was going to eat with a friend.  I was hoping that he would get together Audrey's so that I could get mine and make it easier.  But since I am trying to keep Audrey off of gluten as well (several reasons for this), he kept complaining about he didn't know what to feed her because she can't have Ritz or bread.  Finally I had to stop what I was doing and make a pb&j on a corn tortilla. How freaking hard was that?!

Complaint over.

Anyway, I am really looking forward to seeing family and friends this weekend.  My 1st friend I ever had (seriously, we were babies) is coming along with her little boy who is a few weeks younger than Audrey.  I just have to do some cleaning tomorrow.  We aren't dirty people, so it's not hard.  Just doing the mopping and vacuuming and dusting.  Shouldn't take long.  I haven't seen my big brother in a few months, so I am excited!  He's the one who planned the whole thing.
