Learn Something New Every Day

Charlie to me: I like you even if the neighbors don't. 

Me: Awwww. 

Wait. What?

No, I don't know why.

What Type of New Age Crap is He Learning in Kindergarten?

Charlie, when presented with a dinner he did not like: "I don't like that. It doesn't fill my bucket."

The same new age crap, I'm teaching in Kindergarten, apparently. 

Nothing says Christmas . . .

like driving your cat nuts with the Chrustmas tree parts. 

Birthday Party!

I seriously need to up my game when it comes to birthday parties. This little girl had a bounce house, piñata, face painting, carnival games and decorate your own cupcakes.  

I'm glad I have a few months to prepare. 

Happy Thanksgiving! Love, Charlie

Is He too Big For a Shelf?

Leftovers

I tried something different this year. I usually make a turkey pot pie, but this year I made a Leftover Pot Pie. (Emphasis on Leftover) I grabbed a pie plate and turkey and added the green bean casserole, the apple sausage stuffing, some diced carrots from the veggie platter, some chicken broth, a little milk and cream of mushroom soup. Then, I added the cranberry stuff on top. It made all the difference. It might look a little weird, but it's yummy.

 And the best part is that there are no more Tupperware  containers in the fridge.
