Did you ever run away from home?
I was always running away as a child. I had a "Going To Grandma's" kids suitcase packed with travel essentials like kandy kakes, apple juice boxes, a flashlight, a bag of quarters (to call home), a babysitters club book, one of my Breyer horses, and a picture of my mom. It was all cleverly hidden under the bottom bunk bed and whenever I came home to a visibly drunk stepfather, I'd grab my bag and got walking. I can't even count the number of times I've left, mostly I'd get scared a few streets away from the house and I'd be home before anyone ever noticed. After a while I became the girl who cried "run away", my parents just ignored the fact that I left until I ran away when we were staying the summer in Virginia. I had no idea where I was and I got truly lost. Mom found me less than a mile from the house and she was a frantic mess, I felt so horrible for what I had done to her. I was nine years old and that was the last time I ran away.

This isn't a question, it's a free way to get survey data! Le sigh.
Their service is always fantastic:
A few months ago I was in the drive through and they asked me to pull forward because my food was taking a little too long to prepare, I waited maybe 3 minutes in the parking lot when my food came and they gave me a free slice of cheesecake as a thank you for waiting!
Last night Jon made a quick stop at Fazoli's on his way home and ordered two slices of pizza and two bread sticks, the total came to $4. When he got to the drive-in window and paid for his pizza the staff asked him if he wanted free food. The man in the car ahead of him ordered a bunch of dinner items but said it was too expensive and he left. The staff said they didn't want to just throw it away. So Jon came home with 2 chicken fettuccine dinners, 1 chicken penne pasta dinner, 2 strawberry fruit smoothies, an extra large soda, 2 pieces of pepperoni pizza and 2 breadsitcks... all for $4!
So if your ever in the mood for a quick Italian meal... it comes highly recommended :)
Another comical website error page from Ravelry. Apparently I'm starting a collection of creative error messages, done plum, woops, bear mauling, octopus...
We live more than 2,000 miles apart but thanks to the magic of facebook we manage to stay in touch regularly. A few weeks ago she saw one of my knitting projects online and asked if I would make something for the baby. I was so flattered by her request! I picked out my favorite organic cotton yarn and knitted a decorative flower pacifier clip and a matching baby bonnet. The pair couldn't have turned out better and I can't wait to see them in the hands of our newest family member, baby Adysen.
