First off school – I’m in baking and pastry class (weeks 21-23). My home work consists of piping whipped Crisco into frosting borders on a sheet of cardboard. Now we have advanced into writing Happy Birthday in chocolate on the board. When Leigh came out she referred to it as my “board of fat” for the whole weekend. My group for this class is great, Joel and Doug, my boys, so I’m happy. My Chef’s name is Stephen Durphy, and he was the original pastry chef of the French Laundry (The super fancy place where we ate dinner in the fall)
Next off Leigh!!! - My Leigh –Anna came out to Napa Jan 10-13. We had a blast hanging out, watch Gilmore Girls (sorry David) eating pizza and drinking tons of wine. We went wine tasting at a few places, one of which Sterling Vinyards, we got to ride their tram to get the tasting room. It was very fun to have her here to hang out with. We both really missed her when she left on the 13th.
In no particular order – Jelly Belly factory!!
We went to tour the Jelly Belly factory in Fairfield Jan 3rd, which was on our list of things we wanted to do before we moved. It was a fun tour watching the jellybeans being made. We bought a ton of belly flops, which are the reject jellybeans, which we are sending out to people to share.
Finally Whistler – Abby was sick and it was chilly, but was still had a great weekend. We met Wade and Ali’s friends Jason and Kaitlin at the SFO airport and flew up to BC with them. The 8 of us had a blast. We celebrated both Dad’s and Kaitlin’s Birthdays over the weekend and skied a ton.
Enjoy the Photos and love to one and all
Abby

Yes, it's true that I'm not in the Whistler picture, but I swear I'm the one taking it. No really, I was there!
