2 more days...

I have a child with bronchitis, another with what sounds like the beginning of the same, and company arriving in two hours.

I WILL make my goal of posting everyday in February, but don't expect anything brilliant.

In other news, I was at Target filling prescriptions and what did I buy? Three bags of mini candy bars. I couldn't choose. Yesterday's post did me in. But mmmm...100 Grand, Twix and Snickers. Also Red Vines. I must be sugar deficient or something.

Off to get the beans on the stove for dinner. Hey, family is Catholic, which translates to no meat on Fridays. Now that I can do! And I can't remember who asked, but I'd say it'll take me a couple months to get through 32 lbs of beans. I don't eat them every day. I'd like to, but the family would protest.

Happy Friday, all!

Snickers are my favorite. Yesterday, I reached an all time mothering low. I was having a chocolate craving and all I could find in the cabinet was my daughter's valentine heart lollipop. So, I ATE IT!

She is still not talking to me.

I think I survived my entire sophomore year on pretty much nothing but Snickers. I can only eat them sparingly now.

It's malted milk egg season in our house!

I'm all for Snickers! I could eat them all day long! :-)

Crystal Cook said...

Oh, poor kiddos and you too! Hope all is well soon. You should post your favorite bean recipes I'm curious how you're going to use all those up.

During Halloween when those combo bags line the shelves at Walmart....I buy a years supply of that stuff. Candy has a shelf-life of something like a decade...right?

Yeah, I'm on a kitkat thing, lately. ;)

Hope everyone feels better and that your Friday night goes excellently!

Snickers! Aw man, I haven't had one of those in a while... thanks a lot for infecting me. :) My OTC (one true candy), however, has been and always will be Reese's. Peanut butter AND milk chocolate! Two thumbs up!

Oh man, I could totally eat beans every day!!

Hope the kiddo gets better soon. Hang in there! You're doing a great job! Can't believe you've been posting every day...super woman!

Aww, hope your kiddos feel better soon. That's the worst, that bronchitis cough in the nighttime.

I am definitely a chocoholic but Twix are my favorite. Yum! Except that right now I am eating some insane mint brownie ice cream that my hubby bought. It's gooooood. And I don't even like ice cream!

ps - What are red vines? Is that like red licorice?

Alex said...

I hope your kiddies feel better fast. Hang in there!

I usually go for the 100 Grand, Twix and Mounds bars.

I'm intrigued by all these beans. What kind of magic beans are you eating and is this an odd hobby or something? 32 lbs?!??!

I think you need to post some bean recipes. :) I have no idea what I'd do with beans other than throw them in a burrito
