Hubster and I had a text conversation the other day. In the quest for full honesty, I’ll tell you that we were in the same house and no one wanted to walk to the other person. I would say that we only had a text conversation in the same home due to Hubster recovering from…

It feels like Christmas morning. You get that bright blue box with the shiny blue foil wrapper that you can’t wait to open. Then you open it and take the first, blissfully delicious, bite. And you think to yourself “Why did I used to like these?!?” But you decide to try another bite and you…

Bloggers Confession: I’m not ashamed to say that many hours were blissfully wasted in this taste testing endeavor. I’m guessing my friends were just as happy to waste their time since they’ve been asking when they can be of service again.  I’ve eaten Oreos. Many Oreos. I’ve had friends and neighbors eat Oreos.

Hubster and I were text messaging each other while he was out and I was at home, dying of starvation while I waited for him. Apparently, Hubster thought he would make this situation better by sending me pictures of delicious food that I…
