I 8 Gr8 in 2008!

December 31, 2008

Hi there! I apologize for the lack of posting yesterday, but unfortunately I was feeling a bit under the weather and my appetite was really off. I started to feel better later, but then we decided to go see the movie Marley & Me – very cute and of course, very sad at the end. [...]

Let’s Not Remember the Alamo…

December 29, 2008

I’m a bit depressed right now My Wildcats just lost in overtime at the Alamo Bowl. I’m a little (actually, a lot) emotional right now. I know it sounds silly to be upset over a football game, but I think it’s more than that. It’s really because the end of this game really solidified the [...]

Quick Turnaround

Christmas Unwrapped

December 26, 2008

Happy Friday, everyone! I am actually just waking up (it’s nearly 10:00 am) and am still a little drowsy. I guess it’s to be expected after a food day like yesterday. I’m still stuffed! It was a lot of fun to read about everyone’s Christmas celebrations. Ours started early yesterday morning, when my brother forced [...]

Twas the Night Before Christmas…

December 24, 2008

Many of you know the story I’m about to go read it with my little brother. Another Christmas tradition. I want to wish all who are celebrating a very MERRY CHRISTMAS. Or, perhaps, Happy Hanukkah. Or, more generally, Happy Holidays! I have been spending the day with my family and the festivities will continue through [...]

Chocolate Covered Spaghetti

December 24, 2008

No, not really! But I’m beginning to think it may as well have been! Is it just me, or does sugar tolerance kick into overdrive this time of year? Every night I think, “There’s no way I could eat another piece of candy or chocolate tomorrow,” only to repeat the cycle the next day! I [...]
