Favorites along the way

So I know I'll never catch up on my favorites and I am not going to try. I'll probably start over when I go to France. We'll see.

This picture, and a sympathetic French teacher during my oral exam, is what I have to show for it :) Mom brought me some jello when I had the stomach flu a week or so ago so she could make some blender jello for me.
