5 Things California Has Done To Me

1. Learned to recycle (no, we don't recycle in Tetonia, Idaho).
2. Now say "Dude" on the phone to my Mom almost every call.
3. Eat granola and yogurt by choice for lunch frequently(weird I know).
4. Actually enjoy a California Roll every so often (Sushi without the raw fish).
5. Due to the awesome weather I now shave my legs a LOT more frequently.

Things Idaho has done to me:
1) I don't technically recycle, but in my house it's that saying about use it up, wear it out, something something or do without. We reuse everything before throwing it away. Except of course gross stuff like dental floss. Eww.
2) I call my hubby dude. It earned me raised eyebrows when we first got married, now it doesn't faze him. But I must admit, he's a dude, so it's not as bold as calling your mom dude.
3) I use to eat yogurt and granola by choice, then I moved to Idaho.
4) I LOVE sushi! The kind without raw fish of course. And I totally knew what you were talking about when you said a California roll.
5) I need as much heat as I can get for winter! I don't shave my legs - unless I'm about to eat tacos. And that's a joke that you'll have to ask Jake and his younger brother about.

I'm glad California is so good to you. It's amazing you can come from somewhere so small to somewhere so big and feel right at home both places!

PS. When are you coming home for Christmas? We'll be going to NV, so you need to make sure you're here while we are;)

Yougurt and granola in not weird! It's one of my favorites, always haas been!

The recycling thing in Idaho does need to improve. Growing up in Seattle we recycled, but they made it easy to recycle. Giving each house special recycling bins and then the garbage man would pick it up with the rest of your garbage. I miss that. Now we have to drive to I.F. to dispose of it!!
