You can reach her at laura.gentry@thenewstribune.com, but it’s in your best interest not to.

I just returned from a week in Hawaii and wanted you all to know I thought about you fondly briefly while I was away.
Over the course of Hawaii's history, many countries have tried to claim the islands for themselves. So I thought I'd give it a try and acquire it for the GritCitizens. You know, because there's a lot of gritty sand there.
So you see, I imprinted our identity into the ground to let everyone know it's ours now...

...then the ocean washed away my proclamation. So I scowled and went back to my cabana to sip over-priced drinks with liquor and ice cream in them.
Today in SoundLife, you can learn how to make a great cup of tea.
Tonight at the Tacoma Dome, you can attend the World's Biggest Tea Party.
With ponies.

I can think of no better Wednesday. Especially if you're 4 years old, in age or spirit. If I had a little one to borrow for the show, dress in some variety of tulle, and get hopped up on Hello, Cupcakes and hot chocolate, life indeed would be sweet.
Instead I'll be at work, thinking of how my dear Dad humored me by judging my painstakingly put-together My Little Pony fashion shows. (Happy birthday, Dad!)
You can read more about the pony shindig here. Other bloggers are talking about ponies here.
