First of all, thank LesJouJou for participating in that fun How We Met idea I had way back in this post...
Telling the story of how Matt and I met was fun, but reading your story was even more fun! I am such a romantic sap... can't help it.
Anyone else wants to participate, feel free! Would even love it if you used that picture up there. Just be sure to let me know so I can soak up the sappyness. Love it!

Cooking Goals for
Memorial Day Weekend:
-Duo Dishes' Sweet and Spicy Meetballs
- From a North London Kitchen (who found the recipe on her friend Batter Splattered's blog)'s Double Chocolate Biscottis. Yum!
Might make some more things as well... but don't want to over-commit. This recipe blogroll idea has worked out pretty well! Plus, you've all been posting some great recipes. Can't wait to make another recipe blogroll when I've finished this one! I already know what like, half of the dishes will be!
Knitting Update:
Abby's jacket is coming along nicely!
Can't believe this pattern is actually working!
Good progress... definitely not finished
haha. Arms to come soon.. I know it looks
rough, but it's not done! Don't worry!
Baby Update:
(Sorry, still can't tell you who the proud, soon-to-have-twins Momma is yet! Soon!)
Instead of knitting her something... how about I get her this?
Hi! I'm Alien Baby, commin out of your frontjust to say hello.
No?

HAHAHHA i love the alien baby pouch, you should get it for her just for laughs! :) It kinda reminds me of the snuggy...have you heard of it? its in one of those infomercials and wearing it makes you look like you're in a cult. haha! :)
The jacket looks great so far!
I like the way you call it... 'this'.
Does that... thing... even have a name?
Yummy! The chocolate biscotti sounds great, especially with some coffee! The jacket looks so cute too!
Thanks for those kind words on my blog! Things are settling a bit and we are taking up a collection to help with funeral arrangements
The jacket is coming together nicely! That alien baby jacket is creepy. Very creepy!
i just read the story about how you met matt. its cute. very very very cute!
and , i know this is a dumb cornyish thing to say, but i feel like in real life we would be friends! although i already have waaay too many friends called sarah ;p my official nickname is `2` we all just have numbers
also - what is memorial day? :) i could google it but i am lazy
It's a baby snuggie!!!! How fun is that!!!! You'll love the meatballs. They're super easy! We want to see the biscotti though. We've yet to try a biscotti recipe, so it builds our confidence when we read others' recipes. :)
Great work on the jacket, the pattern looks like it's going really well, can't wait to see it finished.
I made the biscotti again the other day. So good with coffee, oh yes! I hope it works out for you.
Have a great weekend.
My brother and his wife just had their baby! I think in your time zone yesterday...
And, I've had that biscotti recipe marked since I saw the link on your page. I need to get an oven, first. So, probably not until September. Yum!
Glad you enjoyed our story! Everyone always freaks out about the cuteness of meeting in France.
If I ever saw someone wearing that alien baby thing, I would freak out.
That baby holder looks neither comfortable nor flattering. I think I'd prefer balancing the baby on my head.
Actually, I've read studies that show that babies who are held close to their mother's bodies all the time are more content, healthier, and more confident as adults.
That being said, OH MAN is that thing UGLY!
HA!
I'd consider getting some kind of wrap to carry my baby on my back, like mothers in Africa do, but that thing is crossing the "way too ugly" line. It looks like the baby is bursting out of the mother's chest.. yuck.
The jacket looks great so far! I'm sure Abby will LOVE it!
Found your blog through 20sb....and LOVE IT!!! Did you create your template?
I think I'll stay away from the "how we met" thing considering my situation, but I loved the "kangaroo pouch" part of your post. I say go for it! (Okay, not really, but it is hilarious)
what a cute clog you have love the concept of being the new girl will follow have a fab weekend all the best with the cooking
I love the jacket - great spring green color that will be perfect for all seasons! What a lucky bambino to receive it!
crack up of the alien suit...it would be warm, but looks....alien... you described it perfectly!!!!
That looks really hard to knit! Wow, I'm going to start harassing you with my knitting questions soon! Haha
Great cooking plans for this weekend! Enjoy the holiday!

Love biscotti's!! My mouth is watery just thinking about. In fact, I always get a watery mouth whenever i read your cooking goals!! Baby alien thingy looks scary. I'd get a backpack :p
That baby fleece thing just made me bust out laughing!
The jacket looks so cute and adorable. I love it! Thank you for sharing.
