In the laughs on me news....

Before I figured out my destiny as a Mother/Photographer, I spent quite a few years working as a server in restaurants.....At every restaurant job I ever had, the back of the house cooks...who were predominately Hispanic.... would always nick name me "Gigio". I always thought it was weird that even at different restaurants they still called me that. Because it sounded like they were saying JeJOO.... I just assumed it was a Hispanic way of saying Jenny. Finally, I asked one of the guys what it meant and he told me it was because I looked like the mouse Topo Gigio. You think all those years I would have looked it up. I never did.....flash forward to Olvera street in LA and there staring at me on a vendors cart was a mouse that I can't deny I have quite a resemblance to....
