Ham


Brian traded some work for a neighbor in exchange for a pig. Hence the ham for Sunday dinner. Lauren Mae said it was the best ham she'd ever eaten.

I was off from work all last week, so when I was finally well enough to return to my windowless office I was pleasantly surprised to find how well my plant was doing.
