    Weekend Recap

    This weekend was one for the books. I wish I could rewind and do it all over again because it was that great. Friday night was my work’s annual Trivia for Autism event. I’m proud to announce that team Trivia Newton John took 3rd place, we think. Only 1st and 2nd place were announced but we felt confident about our final score 🙂

There was a variety of apples and homemade applesauce the kids made that morning. The real favorite though was the apple flavored licorice. After school it was haircut time followed by frozen yogurt. Although we had cooler temperatures the day before, it was back into the upper 80’s this weekend. I tried out a new salsa recipe for dinner that tasted just like something you’d find in a restaurant. I hope to post the recipe later this week. That night we headed to…
