*Last night some girls from my moms' group table got together for dinner. We had such a nice time and believe it or not, I didn't leave their house until almost 10:00 (gasp!!). :)

*Any of you who think this is the way to make brownies cannot be my friend. A brownie should be doughy and without edges. :)



*Easter plans:

Saturday: Head out to Chris' brother's place and celebrate with them and his parents.
Meal: Taco salad, a dessert I'm bringing that will hopefully be good enough to blog about later :)

Sunday: Church, hike with my parents then back to our house for lunch
Meal: Crockpot shredded beef for tacos, same dessert as Saturday

*Kids new favorite show: Doc McStuffins

*Chris' parents spent the night a couple nights ago. They gave me an early birthday present of some cute clothes and an Ebelskiver pan. I've seen these things for a while and they look very fun. They are basically a pancake you can stuff with either sweet or savory fillings. I'm excited to use it!!

*While the kids were looking at books at the library, I was browsing the magazines and started reading Consumer Reports. They did a huge super market/bulk store comparison and out of all our local stores, Trader Joes came out on top (meaning lowest prices). Trader Joes isn't THAT convenient for us, plus it's always sooo crowded, but maybe I should try a little harder to make it work. :)

You can't be my friend because you like nasty gooey brownies ;-) I've been wanting that pan forever.

I have things I buy at Traders for price. I usually have matt stop in for me on his way home from work. I hate taking both my kids there.

I agree with you about the brownies! I will take my piece from the center and go from there, it drives my hubby crazy!
