Well I just couldn’t pass this up. I have never done this before but I figured why not give it a shot! It is my blog afterall :) I don’t particularly like black-eyed peas but a $25 gift certificate sounds good or even the home-made corn bread… If you would like to enter the cornbread and black-eyed peas contest contest as well then you better hurry up because it ends tomorrow.

My cookies are gone…
Well, today I went to eat a couple of cookies that I made the other day and to my surprise they were almost all gone!!! Could it be that I have a mouse? Hmmm, it seems like I might have 2 mice namely my children :) I started out with 60 cookies and do admit I had a few, but this is all that is left… I guess it is time to make one more batch until next holiday season.

Logoff for new years ;)
I just saw this and thought it was pretty funny so I had to share with everyone. I remember a time when I would just click the “remind me button” and go about my work, but lately I have been taking more time away from the computer so I can maintain some of my sanity. :) Read more »

Basketball season is now on!
If you remember from last years post when I exclaimed that I finally thought about sports as being fun because my Daughter had joined her schools basketball team. Well they are back in action as the season just started. We had not one but two games today and both were extremely edge of the seat exciting. We won the first and lost the second but it was basket for basket all the way through the game. I don’t know what it is that makes it so exciting, perhaps it is that my Daughter is playing on the team or because [...] Read more »

“Upstate New Yorkers”
This was emailed to me today and I just had to post it… Too funny… “Upstate New Yorkers” If the speed limit on the highway is 55 — your going 80 — and everybody is passing you, you may live in upstate New York! If you have switched from heat to AC and back again in the same day, you may live in upstate New York. If your local Dairy Queen is closed from September to the end of May, you could live in upstate New York ! If you install security lights to your house and garage, [...] Read more »
