This is the place where I write about Mai family's struggles, challenges, and adventures. Mai family was created in 1992 in Minneapolis, MN, after meeting each other in 1988, and then officially in 1996 when we received our marriage certificate, We have three children and live in central Florida. Welcome to our world, we're glad you're in it!

Yellow Dog Eats
Yellow Dog Eats and so do I! My friend Kim introduced me to this cafe and I LOVE it. We have gone a few times and I could continue going back once a week. I'm surprise I haven't gotten sick of it but their food is THAT good.
It also helps that I have the wonderful company of Kim. When we moved, I realized that I didn't take enough time to spend with friends. I did a lot with friends but I could have done better so I vowed that I would not let life take over and when a friend was able to get together, I would take advantage of it. I always have a "to do" list but I won't regret time spent with a friend, I will regret not seizing the moment. My "to do" list will always be there and that's just fine. It took me a lot to get to this point because I was driven by my lists for years but I have been able to let that go a bit.
I feel like I've known Kim much longer than I have - we share our lives, we've shed tears, and we've laughed. We laugh about the silliest things and I appreciate having a friend who I can feel comfortable with even after such a short time.
The first time Lane and I met Kim at the cafe, Lane threw a fit on the floor in front of the door because the cafe didn't sell chocolate milk. It was quite a scene too. All I can say is thank goodness I think she's cute. No one there made a big deal about it and simply stepped over her.
The second time Lane and I met Kim at Yellow Dog Eats, I brought chocolate milk for Lane. Lane pooped up her back and down her legs. I am positive she got poo on the cafe carpet. Oh well, I can't do much about that but hope it isn't as nasty as I think it is but man, I wish I had a hose attached to the van to hose the child off. What a valuable invention idea!
The third time Lane and I met Kim at the cafe, we took chocolate milk and everything needed for a poopy blow-out. Everything went well and Lane even met a little friend to entertain while we were there. Third time is a charm! I think we have this cafe dining thing figured out finally.
