    Congratulations to Valeria! I had my confirmation in 8th grade. We had 1st communion in 2nd grade.

    I'm afraid I'm going to need a little bit more info on how to make those tacos. They look delicious.

    Fun family occasion. In 2001, we moved away from a large family in the Bay Area and I really miss all the family celebrations (that everyone has continued without me). In Feb I'll be going down for my mom and her twin's 85th birthday, so I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone then.
