i really need to start taking more picts. i wanted to change the pict of me and andy and i dont have a good pict of us since May. seriously?! i'm terrible. last night i had 17 people in my house and not a single picture. i get so mad at myself.

yummy grape salad

So, I don't usually post recipes but OMG!! I'm obsessed with this stuff. I am usually not a huge grape fan (meaning... I don't just sit around and eat them) but they are wonderful in this dish. The best part though is that this is super easy and light ingredients. It was definitely a hit at our BBQ last night. Also, the blog (skinny taste) that I got it from has some good recipes so you should check it out too.
