That would be her grand piano that was forced to be abandoned in South Dakota a few years ago when she moved to Arizona. The crazy broad ((HI DEB)) secretly had it shipped here over the past few months. It apparently took quite the journey: South Dakota, Oregon, Washington, KENTUCKY (WTF?), and then finally Arizona. I have to say I first screamed obscenities, then almost fainted, then had to get confirmation that was actually it, and then resisted the urge to burst into tears. Apparently, half my family knew about it too and has shockingly been able to keep it quiet. CRAZY. They were also placing wagers on what my reaction would be... I suspect my brother is probably the closest.

Want to see something else pretty? Roasted cherry tomatoes with balsamic and fresh basil.
What you need: ((Warning: very precise measurements ahead. Write this down.))
1 big bunch of cherry tomatoes
1 sizeable drizzle of olive oil
1 sizeable drizzle of balsamic vinegar
A few cracks of pepper
A few cracks of sea salt
A handful or two of fresh basil
This couldn't be easier:
Preheat the oven to 400.
Spread the tomatoes out on a cookie sheet, and how about you use one that has sides on it? Drizzle them with olive oil and balsamic and give them a roll around. Crack on some salt and pepper.
Roast for about 15 minutes.
When done, add the basil.
THAT'S IT.
This is good warm, at room temp, or refrigerated.
