• Hot dog soup.

    On days where I really don't have a whole lot to blog about, I tend to start looking at my thousands of notes that I make for myself on a daily basis and today, I found this: {this was written the day we did an indoor picnic} Nathan wanted so…

  • It’s almost time….are you ready?

    Well, it’s almost time to stuff your face with turkey, stuffing, green bean casserole, pumpkin pie, and who knows what else. Are you ready? I came across some pretty interesting facts about Thanksgiving Day and here’s my fave: $3.86 billion Forecast 2007 receipts to farmers from turkey sales. This exceeds…

  • Caffeine withdrawal.

    I am having major caffeine withdrawal here. I haven’t bought a case of soda like Pepsi or Coke in over a week and our house is out of them. I just refuse to pay anything over $2.66 for a twelve-pack of soda. Not sure why $2.66 is my random cutoff…

  • Hair envy.

    I’ve always known that avocado does wonders for the skin but today during a snack, Will discovered another use for the lovely green food. I had dropped a couple of slices onto his tray along with some cheese cubes and not even ten seconds later I looked up and saw…

  • Confuscious say….

    You Are a Fortune Cookie You’re a rather normal person, except that you have extraordinary luck in life. People want to be around you (even when they’re a little sick of you), in hopes of being lucky too!  What Kind of Cookie Are You?

  • Now that’s MY kinda eatin’!

    I fixed some barbecue ribs, baked beans and baked potatoes for dinner tonight.  Saying that Will enjoyed the potatoes and beans is an understatement. I finally have a kid that likes to eat like I like to eat.  I just know this dude is going to be down for J.…
