54 and Snow

January 29th, 2008

Today the weather read 54 degrees and Snow, I kid you not. At 7:30 a.m. it was nice and warm, and by 9:00 a.m., it had already dropped to below 40. At Noon the snow started, and it looks like it is here to stay for quite a while too. Thade is thrilled though, he loves the snow ;) I’m not so excited about the snow, its just too darn cold.

Happy 4th Birthday Thade!

I was putting together tonight’s Chili, and I needed to make a dessert to go with it. I thought about making a batch of Brownies, but then I remembered the Cookie Dough that was hanging out in the fridge. I thought I would make the Cookie Dough into Cookie Bars, and they turned out great. I even melted some Hershey Kisses on top for the icing. I used everything that I had on hand, so no last minute trip to the store. Thade and I have already split three of the tasty Cookie Bars. Oh the cookie goodness ;)

Swimming in Paperwork

I’m up to my ears in all things taxes today… I’m trying to get everything organized, and together for tax time, and it has only made me realize how unorganized I am when it comes to that time of the year. The receipts are piling up, and my noggin is starting to hurt just looking at all of the mess. I need to get back to sorting while Dylan is asleep, and I need to come up with a better filing system too ;)
