You know the book Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day? We had one of those days yesterday. Everything went wrong and we just couldn’t get out of our funk. It wasn’t pleasant. We got takeout which made it better though. I really need to stop using food to make me feel better. Or
So, I have to admit that I was a little jealous of the crazy snow storm on the east coast. Living in Fargo for 5 years, we were used to blizzards (though not of that magnitude) and it was always kind of fun to be snowed in and have lazy days at home, eating grilled
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving!! Are you all ready or totally scrambling? I’m at my parent’s house today and we’ll be prepping whatever we can today to make tomorrow a little less stressful. And what about Black Friday? Do you guys go out at the crack of dawn to snag the deals? I don’t usually but we’re

I have to admit I don’t love marshmallows. The only time I’m down with them is when they are brown, bubbly and melty between chocolate and graham crackers. Aka the s’more.
