i sold the house.  keep your fingers crossed that everything goes smoothly.  i will be back in st. louis by the end of july.  i am so excited about my new neighborhood.  there is a great park within walking distance as well as a darling coffee shop with a menu that includes crepes...yum and a fantastic mexican restaurant just at the end of the block.  tucked in on a near by corner is a gourmet pizzeria that i can't wait to try.  notice i didn't make mention of the donut shop with cake donuts filled with marscapone cheese...this can not become a frequent stop (i blame leslie and will for introducing me to these).  if anyone wants to help me move feel free to sign up below :)
