My husband puts up with a lot. Like coming home to find me wielding a hammer and trying to smash Jolly Ranchers to dust on our brand new wood floor.
There are some things you folks can learn from SECOND hand experience, one of those being- Jolly Ranchers cannot be crushed with a hammer, mallet, rolling pin, food processor, or other sharp, heavy, or intimidating object- unless already altered from their original state! Seriously,...

Reeses Peanut Butter Cup Brownies

After the Twix Brownies, how could we not, really? Twix is still my favorite, but these are pretty high on the list.

Carrot Patch Dirt Cups

I've been having issues lately. First was the death of my memory stick adapter which I use to move pictures from my camera to my computer. Then we went on vacation (that's not so much an issue as just a super fun time). Next came the death of my laptop charger resulting in a looong "5-10 days delivery" without a computer.
By the way, I kid you not, that charger went out with a bang. I woke up in the middle of the night to...
