Formal Introductions

Allow me to introduce you to our cast of crazy characters:

First we have Extra Savoir-Faire. (Click here for further explanation.)


He's mysterious. He's brilliant. He knows it all--even that he knows it all. He's a snappy dresser and likes fine automobiles. And he has been know to be a Supertaster.

Then we come to me--Bangs. I recently cut bangs. I haven't had them since junior high. I'm trying to give them a chance.


I'm also the mom and wife to ESF. I have many responsibilities. And actually, I am the boss of this whole operation we call our family. Also, I can cook. Just a little bit.


This is me with ESF. For me is was BB (Before Bangs), and for ESF, it was before he shaved his facial hair.

Moving along to our offspring...

This is our first born daughter. Her name is Au Contraire. (For obvious reasons...and sometimes we call her Boss of Me.) She zany. And only naughty sometimes.


Never a dull moment with AC.


This little guy below is Mr. Xcitement. He's full of energy and loves chocolate.


He's also very naughty. But because we like him, we keep him around.

This little red-head is Number Three. She's darling in every way.

She's not naughty yet. But she is very observant of her siblings, so she will be before too long.

Number Three loves, loves, loves her mom. And food. The end.


The photo cred goes to our beloved Au Contraire (the first born), who discovered she also has a penchant for photography like I do.

And sometimes she even likes me as much as Number Three does.
