Organizing cleaning supplies, originally uploaded by Chez Larsson.

Organizational heaven – that’s what chez larsson’s house must be from all the photos I’ve seen of it. Benita is amazing at organizing. I’d ask her to help me but I’d have to fly her in from Sweden…not gonna happen. Although she will be in NYC this year. Hmmm..

So here’s how good of a niece I am. I called a cousin to see what I could do for the family after my uncle passed away last week. She says they’re okay then get’s excited about something and requests I bring gluten-free “twinkies” from a gluten free bakery a short drive from my place for her mom (my cousin) and her grandma (my aunt).

**still following this?**

So I agree. Then find out on Sunday – the bakery is closed – and then I left too early Monday to get to the bakery before driving 90 minutes to the funeral. Turns out, my aunt and cousin were really, REALLY looking forward to those twinkies and I did not bring them any.

This story does have a happy ending though. I will get the twinkies and will drive them down to a July 4th party my cousin is hosting. So I’ll come through a week late. Better late than never?!

I’ll be a better niece/cousin..I promise.

UPDATE:  I have the “twinkies” in my possession.  AND will surprise Phyllis and Jody with a container of regular twinkies and then a container of NEW chocolate twinkies.  All gluten free.  I tasted a sample of the chocolate one and it’s soooo yummy – whether or not you need to eat gluten free.  Molly’s Gluten Free Bakery.
