Spaghetti-Os and Apple Pie

Yucky combination, right? Kaitlin and Kaleb worked 11-8 today, so their lunch was at 3. She fixed spaghetti-o's. PHEW-EEE! I can't stand them, but Leeker's had them on sale, and Kaitlin begged me to buy some. She loves those things. For a girl who likes "real" food, it surprises me!

Corby made this awesome apple pie today.
When we ran to Sam's this morning, he saw the Granny Smith apples, and made the spur-of-the-moment decision to make a pie. Now all of you out there reading this blog, and I know there are two or three of you, Corby does not cook and bake like this all the time. He goes through spurts where sweets sound good to him, and that's when he bakes. Most of the time he doesn't eat many sweets (that's my job). It's a good thing he doesn't bake like this all the time. I'd weigh even more than the considerable poundage I already carry around!

And I had to take a picture of Frisbee-head Corby.
We were cleaning out the hall closet this afternoon and found a couple of frisbees. Makes a cute hat, doesn't it?

My current book: Killer Smile by Lisa Scottoline. I read my first Scottoline book last week, and promptly checked out two more from the library. So far, I am enjoying her writing.

And the quote for Sunday 1/6/08 is: "When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us." -- Helen Keller

Margaritaville!

We had a wonderful get-together at On the Border this afternoon. The margaritas were great! Of course, I was the only one drinking - and I'm not even much of a drinker. It was great seeing my niece, Lenore and my nephew, Nick. Even though Nick lives here, I don't get to see him much, as his work hours prevent us from seeing much of each other. We did make a pact to get together and see a movie over the Thankgiving holiday. We will be going to Oklahoma on Thanksgiving to spend it with Charles, but I'll have to come back Thanksgiving night as I have to work on Friday. Here are some pictures from our afternoon out. Kaleb with Nick (Brandon provided Kaleb's rabbit ears)... Kaitlin and Brandon Mom, Terry, Sandy and Lenore Lenore and Mike Ryan and Diana Diana in her Garth t-shirt (I can't wait until tomorrow night!) Me with my sister Rhonda Mom and Lenore THE WHOLE CREW minus me - I'd rather be taking the picture! We are childless tonight, as Brandon went to a concert...
