It’s that time of year again… Halloween! As I mentioned yesterday, I’m not a big Halloween person. It’s just not something that I usually get really into, and I really haven’t posted too many Halloween recipes. I don’t want to leave you in the dark searching for recipes, though, so I thought it would only…
Last week was one of those busy weeks where we had to be somewhere every night of the week. Some people enjoy being busy like that, but I am not one of those people. This week, I was happy to have a bit of down time to get some things done around the house, in the…

I am happy to announce that I have not let my RSS reader get out of control again this week. In fact, for about 5 minutes during the middle of the week I achieved the ultimate RSS reader goal – ZERO unread items. It was very short-lived, but I enjoyed it while it lasted. So,…
