I Stole from Sur La Table

Well, I didn't actually steal this, but it was such a great bargain that it totally felt like I was stealing! I have been wanting to make my first Le Creuset purchase for quite awhile! I covet these amazing pieces of cookware everytime I watch Food Network ("hello, my name is Kristen, and I'm a Food Network addict.") and I found an awesome deal on a covered casserole dish at the most fabulous store ever, Sur La Table. The piece was on the clearance table for $49.99, then the sign said to take an extra 20% off, and then I had a coupon for $10 off my purchase! I basically got this $80 casserole dish for $30.00!!! Whoo-hoo!!!



Now, I have to decide between retirement or the covered 5.5 quart Dutch oven I would like to purchase. Watching Food Network is total peer pressure.

Freedom Journey


In December of 2006, just 2 years after Byron died in Iraq, we decided to take a "Freedom Journey." We spent 3weeks on a road trip through the eastern US - from Austin east to Savannah, then all the way north to New England, and back a little inland to Texas. We traveled over 6000 miles in an effort to see our beautiful country and understand what Byron sacrificed his life for. We drove scenic routes, through small towns and big cities, stopping at places that held history in shaping our nation. We stopped at Veteran's Memorials, National Cemeteries, historical monuments and some of the most beautiful places in America. In each place, we left a "Freedom Rock," a smooth stone that had Byron's name and KIA date on one side, and said "Freedom Isn't Free" on the other. It was our way of taking Byron with us and leaving a bit of him in each special place. This experience was so healing for us, and truly one of the most memorable and special events of our entire lives. Here are our favorite pictures from the Freedom Journey.
