It's good to be back home... 
) I'd be lying if I said I wasn't yelling at the TV for Rachel to say FROZEN PIZZA!! That has to be the most obvious answer! But, I don't know what she was feeling or thinking under all the lights and cameras. Maybe we can turn it around tomorrow. A skunk week is never good, but especially not for Christmas!
