Ummm, can't you do that when you are coming to my house, I mean really :P
Perhaps.  Perhaps I just could.  And might.
And perhaps this was my first attempt, and now that I'm assured I can do it well in this here country, I can now confidently make them for my friends. ;)
God bless Tollhouse.

Just got off the phone with a dear, dear friend that I'd lost touch with several years ago.  He and his wife have two boys just older than my two girls...at one point my job transferred me to Boise and we ended up staying with them for a bit until we found a place of our own.  Anyway, he and his family are staying in the area for a few days and decided to call my folks to see if they could track me down, and I happen to be visiting with my parents at the moment...so we're only about 20 miles apart.  We'll be getting together tomorrow afternoon....yahoo!!!  ;D
When I am grown-up I will understand how BEAUTIFUL it feels to administrate my life effectively.

Until then I will continue to TORCH all correspondence that bores me and to dance NAKED over the remnants of its still glowing embers.

I found a really decent sour pickle yesterday at Tesco's worthy of putting in tuna salad! You don't know how many jars of pickles I have gone thru trying to find a sour pickle...

OH! and also saw Miracle Whip in Tesco's as well for the first time...for all you heathans out there that don't like King Mayo!

Hubby graduates college in eight months, just had the realization this weekend of how close it really is, that is the first time I have felt like that.  Money has been tight, but we have been blessed so I'm not complaining. He has a job offer with the company he interns with part time now, we are planning on buying a house after years of condo/apartment living, and will be purchasing a newer car, we are very excited.  ;D
