I was sitting at my computer, wanting to catch up on some blogging, when my dh calls from the other room: “Honey — I think you might want to watch this movie!” Not wanting to pass up time with my beloved, and knowing that HE knows my taste in movies, I stopped what I was … [Read more…]
Isn’t it amazing how entertaining little things can be? Take oatmeal, for example. [not cooked… that would be gross… eeewww].
