Pumpkin Loaf & Brownies

Too bad we don’t have smell-o-vision! Oh it was so tasty and perfect, esp the pumpkin loaf. It had just the right combination of a toasty crust and a moist, yet fluffy middle…great job Ethan! Move over Bobby Flay and Emeril, Ethan’s in the house!

The Next Iron Chef

or the Cake Boss…except he doesn’t like Buddy Valastro very much, Ethan thinks he is mean. Besides I think he prefers cooking main dishes to desserts. The last couple of months Ethan has really taken a liking to cooking. Nothing specific, just anything we’d allow him to cook without us. I love this age where [...]

BookBook

Nice! Check out this case/cover for the MacBook by twelvesouth. Perfect for all the book nerds like me! Too bad they don’t have one for my 17″. Oooh maybe they should make one for the Kindle…ohohoh I wonder if there already is one similar to this for the Kindle? ******************************************* Dear Mr. BookBook maker, I [...]

Pomp and Circumstance

Before I could even give them ideas for people to write to, they already [...]

gratitude52: week three

gratitude52: week two

thankful for cozy fires. keeps my family warm on the coldest of Florida nights, even provides a sweet indulgence! This past week or so has been so incredibly cold! I’m afraid to see our electric bill next month, esp since we can’t keep the emergency heat from kicking in. This 20 degree weather has been [...]

As the bell rings…

So we don’t have a school bell, but our holiday slacker and vacation days are over. It’s nice to be back to our normal routine. Although I can do without our “flustered with Pre-Algebra so I flip the pages furiously” routine. This is what Lizzie does after school. She’s practicing. We should probably worry. ps. [...]
