I was late getting dinner together tonight and was really tempted to just make pancakes, but I stuck to my plan and made an old favorite. This is one of my favorite things my mom used to make for us as kids. Unfortunately my mom always did it by "feel" and I am just not that capable so I came up with my own method :) Recipe Below...
This video is just too funny to not post
I meant to post last night about dinner but got sucked into a new book. Shocking, I know. I think I am going to have to find a "Kindle-holic" shirt for the auction this year....
Anyway, dinner last night was Baked Pasta. I would usually make this with chedder cheese because I like being different, but I didn't feel like shredding it. Oh and if you are curious why my salad dressing has a 1 on it, check out Meck Mom for a fabulous fridge organizing idea.
I managed to stumble upon an entire forum for Kindle freaks like myself: http://www.kindleboards.com/. Within that forum I found a couple of handy links that can help you decide what you would like to read next. I always figured there had to be a website out there that you could put in a favorite author and/or book and come back with suggestions...well here you go:
http://www.whatshouldireadnext.com/search
http://www.gnooks.com/
http://www.literature-map.com/ "map" your favorite author! See who else is close.
http://www.allreaders.com/ - Search for books by plot.
Additionally, free ebook sites....

Woo! Happy Reading :)
Last night no one was really in the mood to make dinner so we had "breakfast for dinner". The girls had mini chocolate chip pancakes with fruit and sausage. We had blueberry pancakes. The girls like to say that we have the best pancakes ever and I might agree with them. I don't have any big secret to them tho.... I simply use Fresh & Easy Buttermilk Pancake Mix and make it as prepared EXCEPT I replace the oil it calls for with applesauce and add a touch of cinnamon and sometimes vanilla.
It snowed like crazy here in Northwest Las Vegas yesterday. Our house isn't far enough west to get a ton of snow, but we had a light dusting of it. We picked Kyla up from school 15 minutes early and drove off towards the western part of the city and found snow galore! At one point it was coming down like it was cotton balls.... I haven't seen snow like that since living in Vermont.
Kyla was thrilled, Willow was mostly just cold. But the girls got to make their first Vegas snowman and snow angels and a fun time was had by all.
