Yummaliciousness

This dessert is the best. It’s one of those that I just can’t control myself with. Forget intuitive eating, and meet Scotcheroos.
I grew up eating Scotcheroos, a family favorite in desserts. I think I’ve mentioned before how my family is really into dessert and we have to have it at least once […]

Favorite Thing #6: Movies

While I am not an avid TV watcher, I do like movies occasionally. Movies are great for a couple reasons:

I don’t know how many times over the last several years that I have thrown up my hands in frustration over a cheap iron. No more. For Christmas this year I got a Rowenta “Effective” iron that is fabulous.
This iron is in the mid-low price range for Rowenta irons, but I think it’s […]

Favorite Thing #4: Deceptively Delicious Cookbook

My mom got my sister and I this cookbook by Jessica Seinfeld, who developed the recipes after enduring constant battles with her children to eat their vegetables.  She says in the introduction that the idea for this cookbook came about when she was making a sweet potato puree for the baby and macaroni and cheese […]

Favorite Thing #3: Ticket to Ride Board Game

We love games in our family. Both my husband and I grew up in game playing families and so we’ve carried that tradition on together.
The newest addition to our collection is Ticket to Ride, which has several different versions. I was only aware of two, but apparently there are four different versions: […]

Favorite Thing #2: Olympus FE-280 Digital Camera

We also got a digital camera for Christmas. My first digital camera was an Olympus and it took great pictures. This camera is of the same great quality but has a few more features.
This camera has a 2.5″ LCD screen on the back which is HUGE! It’s awesome for both taking and […]

Favorite Thing #1: The Complete Book of Rhymes, Songs, Poems, Fingerplays, and Chants

The name is pretty self explanatory; It’s a book of rhymes, songs, […]
