Show and Tell


World, meet my roommate Michelle. She is my fellow upstairs dweller and as of late takes any opportunity she can to force me to be in pictures with her. For example, our home teachers came over this week and brought us some homemade bread. Michelle insisted that the four of us take a picture together with the bread. Another example is the above photo, please notice the closeness/naturalness of our pose. This is she and I at the Museum of Art for FHE a few mondays ago. As I stood in front of this piece by Dan Steinhilber, I heard her say she wanted a picture so I promptly volunteered to take one of her. Much to my dismay she wanted me to be in the picture with her.


If you are one who has asked me about my roommate/living situation recently, then you have surely heard about her unique personality and there is no need for me to expound here.


This is another gem of a picture from the same night. Michelle accosted us and instructed us to pose for a picture in front of this awesome piece that looks an awful lot like a mosaic. Instead of tesserae, the little orange rectangles are packages of duck sauce.....pretty ingenuous. I digress. These are two girls in my ward whose names I know not. The one on my left gave an excellent talk the other week. The one on my right is a vetranarian and has an obvious penchant for animals, please enlarge the picture and enjoy her facial expression.

Her expression is hilarious! I love that you've been included in so many pictures with random aquaintances.
I love that scarf by the way. I think if I could steal anyone's wardrobe it would be yours. I can't wait to have you up here so I can shop with you, you can be my personal Stacy.
