Our Growing Family

A lot has been happening around the Teahouse lately. The Rascal and I have upgraded our relationship from live-in-lovers to "Domestic Partners." I was under the impression that a domestic partnership involved a ceremony led by a witchy looking lesbian followed by some sort of fabulous hors d'œuvres. But apparently all you have to do is sign your significant other up for an employee discount card to buy groceries at the new Whole Foods Market located in the posh Mountain Brook.

That's right, the Rascal is now a proud employee of the first Whole Foods in Alabama. I took the store tour today and I finally understood why the store is sometimes referred to as whole paycheck. Good lawd I wanted to buy everything. So far I have sampled organic shampoo, chocolate tortillia chips, some sort of granola vitamin bar, beef that has never been fed hormones, preservative free sushi, "cruelty-free" soap, and organic whole foods blend coffee. I have to say- whole paycheck or not it's worth every penny.

Besides publicly proclaiming our undying committedness, we also adopted a four month old. We call him sparky. I'll be posting pictures soon.
