JAVA MAMA

Let's see. I don't post for like over a week and then now I'm all over it. Guess that's my ADD kicking in AGAIN. So, purchased the cookbook and read it cover to cover. Seems like a great concept to get the kiddos to eat more veggies but frankly, I don't know if I would eat half of the recipes that are in there. I'm going to try a few while my hubby's out of town for over TWO WHOLE WEEKS so I'll post and let y'all know if any of them actually taste good. It just seems like the kids would be able to taste the beets and carrots and spinach that you can add to the brownies. I don't know, maybe it's ME. I'm looking for a new steamer for the veggies because basically you need a steamer, a food processor and freezer bags. It really seems that simple! Now back to the fact that my best friend and confidante is going on a temporary assignment for training and will be gone for two weeks makes the boys and I very sad. Ian started crying when I told him after school yesterday and would not let go of his daddy last night while we we out doing the Halloween festivities. He is attached to his daddy at the hip. I'm not happy but like we say "you gotta do what you gotta do." Plus, it'll be good for his career advancements to have all this under his belt now. He just received a monetary award as recognition for his hard work so it's really paying off. He'll be back the Monday before Thanksgiving so that will make this year even more special because he'll be off all week with the boys. OK, so how many of you have big plans to see The Bee Movie this weekend. EWWW me too Can't WAIT! not. Anyway, I do have some adult movies I want to see but I guess that's on the backburner until Brent gets back home. My heart already hurts. I'll stay busy and I've got a lot going on at the school with our Thanksgiving activities and our Fall Festival is November 9th so my little one is looking forward to that. Well, Ciao for now. Take a long, hot, bubbly bath, drink a glass of wine, light the candles, turn on the radio/cd/ipod, and REPLENISH the soul. You know you need it.

Oh, and wish me luck. I'm going to call CALGON and tell them I'm suing for FALSE ADVERTISEMENT. I tried it, it didn't work. It didn't freakin take me away.... they were still passing me notes and broken pencils under the door!!!
