Genetically speaking, a large portion of me is Welch.
Which is why we try to support all things Welch when we can.
This summer it was the Wales National Soccer Team! They played in the EuroCup and did really well! They made it to the semi-finals where they were beat by Portugal.
To celebrate, we went over to my sister's house and made Wales-themed ice cream floats. They were beautiful. Pretty much everything my sister makes is beautiful.
Garry also bought me a Wales jersey. It's the only red thing in my closet as we are devout BYU fans. At Target the young man at the check-out station narrowed his eyes and looked at my jersey incredulously. "Is that a -- a Wales jersey?" he asked.
"Yep!" I said.
They had a good run. Hope they can make it all the way next time.

Hi, Lisa Robbins Anderson here. Have you ever read this blog?

She's Welsh and so creative and fun. She hasn't updated in a while, but there's lots of good stuff in the archives. For instance, I learned that leeks are the Welsh national vegetable and people wear one pinned to their shirt on a particular holiday. True story!
