These shiny new Chuck Taylor's belong to Michelle's guy, Jonathan.  

A couple of interesting facts about these funky sneaks include the following:

• they were first produced in 1917 as the "All-Star" as Converse's attempt to capture the basketball shoe market
• over 750 million pair have been sold worldwide 
• the shoe is quite popular in the sport of powerlifting, where the flat soles of the shoe make for a more stable base than normal style of sneakers

Michelle's Aura

I believe it was a couple of weeks ago that Michelle told me about her experiment with food coloring & water.  Tonight was MY night to experiment and the outcome is what I'm calling "Michelle's Aura".  I'm hoping to see something titled "Elisha's Aura" on  Michelle's Blog soon.

Minneola Tangelo

According to the research I did the Minneola Tangelo is 1/2 grapefruit and 1/2 tangerine and was described as quite handsome and a pleasure to eat.  I have to agree with the handsome part, but a pleasure to eat?  I'm not so sure.  I found this orange to be just a wee bit too sour for my taste.

Today the girls and I decided to try our luck at Bingo.  This outing kicked off the start of our Monthly Girl Event for 2009.  Although we only had 1 winner, claiming a $30 prize we still had a great time!
