Happy Independence Day!
The kids tested out some of our fireworks the other night. Here’s some photos:
I hope everyone has a happy and SAFE 4th of July!

The kids did a bunch of cleanup & yardwork today in the backyard and
earned some fireworks money. They were so excited they attacked each
other. Goofballs. From left to right: Sissa, Codeman, Mo, Lil Miss.
Edited to fix a bunch of typos. Apparently my typos get even worse when posting from an iPhone.

Want a side of E. Coli with that?
If you follow me on Twitter, you likely saw this update:
Pretty sure I just got over a touch of food poisoning. Blech. Feeling a bit better now. #fb8:15 PM Jun 3rd from TwitterFon
Then I posted the next Friday about it:
Wednesday I got some sort of food poisoning or a strange 8 hour bug or something. Around 1 PM or so, I started feeling like crap, continued to feel like crap while spending lots of time in the bathroom until about 8 PM. Then I miraculously felt better and ate some soup. I’m leaning toward food poisoning.
Then I hear about this: Toll House cookie dough recalled, linked to E. coli
Guess what I was nibbling on the prior Tuesday night and Wednesday morning?

If you guessed Nestle Toll House refrigerated cookie dough… you’re 100% accurate. Jack and Sissa bought a tub of it the day before and we had a few nibbles off it before cookies were baked that night. Wednesday morning I ate a spoonful right out of the tub. As a diabetic I know that’s a no-no but it was only a spoonful. Or maybe it was two? I love chocolate chip cookie dough.
But really? E. Coli?? Did I get a touch of E. Coli? I was sick for about 8 hours… Can someone even get a “touch” of something like that? I was the only one who got sick… and it didn’t last days like many with E. Coli symptoms do.. but still. That’s a weird coincidence.
