We had a great time at Sandi’s last Saturday! It was fun seeing everyone and eating, eating, eating… Sandi really does have a great house – and it’s perfect for parties! Plus, she’s the perfect hostess! What a good time!

So… as we were getting ready to leave, Kevin was making up a horserace pool – $5.00 a square. Now, I’ve never met a pool I didn’t like, but I walked out of the house without the money-clip. No cash in the pocket. Kevin offered to spot me five bucks for a square. Of course, I accepted. I figured we were going to lose, and I planned on just mailing Kevin the five bucks when we got home. But not just a five dollar bill. Oh no. Mr Lincoln was going to be sent, but he was going in the form of pennies. Mr Washington, FDR, all of them were going to be included. A nice, vacuum-packed bag of change.

There was no reason to do this, other than a desire to do something silly. (I know, you’re all shocked that I would do something silly, right?!?)

So you can only imagine my dismay – after actually getting this all together – to find out we actually WON third place! I was actually kind of bummed. I came close to mailing the change off anyway, and then decided hell – he owes ME money, I’m not sending HIM any! So here’s a picture, instead.
