They got their mother's lips

I was at Macey's today and couldn't resist

these treasures from days of yore.

I thought for sure the kids would get a kick out of them.

Not so much...

The lips were met with "uncontrollable" gagging

and intense dislike.

The funny part is -

I MADE them pose for a pic anyway, because,

Hey - I like those lips and I'm the mom!!

(p.s. Dallin liked them too. He all but ate them.)

Research

At 7:30 in the morning,

this is our version of America's Test Kitchen.

Dallin's Findings:

Yes, they really do snap, crackle and pop!

My Findings:

Those little dry puffs of air are hard

to catch with a vaccuum or a broom.

But, I don't mind.

I wasn't doing anything else this morning.

The Skeleton In My Closet

Autumn is my favorite season.

I love the fresh chill in the air.

It makes me want to snuggle up in a sweater

and slipper socks and read cookbooks all day.

BUT, I only got as far as the slipper socks -

my little skeleton wants full time entertainment.

Oh well, maybe another day.

Happy October Everyone!
