Stateside Update!

Hello friends! So sorry I have been slacking on the blog, we've only had a few life changing moments over the last month! We are settling into our temporary place in Virginia. And readjusting to the glorious luxuries of being home.

Thanks to everyone who has been checking up on us and on Dom's health. He is doing better since we are back in the states. We have had a serious change in lifestyle since our arrival, namely a super duper elimination diet that cuts wheat, gluten, dairy, red meat, coffee, alcohol, etc. Initially this sounded super scary! However, it honestly hasn't been too bad and it forces some creativity in the kitchen.

I must say though, I have learned a whole new style of grocery shopping. Thank goodness for Trader Joes and Whole Foods! And we know have a cabinet full of weird, expensive food items. And I have learned how to make some strange, yet delish dishes! You should know that Dom is loving all the experimentation in the kitchen, and loves even more that for the first time ever I make sure he's got lunch prior to work. Who knew we were capable of such gender roles?

Anyhow life is almost perfect, we're just waiting for Grace to join us stateside. Apparently she has mad kitty survival skills as she escaped the vets office after attacking the vet's assistant, and sought refuge on the roof. They did manage to wrangle her back in her cage, but not until she'd missed her flight by a good four hours. Needless to say mission "send grace to civilization" was a bust. We hear that they plan on sedation next time. Lets hope she doesn't remember a thing!
