2 New Faves and A Series of Unfortunate Events....
So I have 2 new things to add to my list of "favorite things" (yes, a lot of my list consists of things that are edible...) One is BlueBell's Nonfat Banana Split Frozen Yogurt. Yum. (Note- that is not a picture of it at the top, but it was all I could find that was similar....) Any time I see the words fat-free or nonfat, I think 'Why don't they just write Gross on the label?'. But not the case with this item. Highly recommend if you are watching the waistline. The other new favorite is not so good for the dieter, but can be eaten in small portions (good luck with that). I think the Double Stuf Cool Mint Creme Oreos have been out for a while, but I am such a big fan of the regular Double Stuf that I have never ventured out to try the others. These totally rock. I could eat a whole pack. I dipped them in milk the other night and it was like mint chocolate heaven. If you're not known for your willpower, then I would not recommend these for you. I allow myself 2 at a time and I savor them and it has gone ok so far. Of course, there have not been any crisis situations that would call for eating them all in one sitting..... Now for the unfortunate events part. So, I had my 2 days and one night of freedom all planned out and was really quite "giddy" about the peace and quiet I was to experience whilst the girls and hubby were at the lake. Well, the dock guy called and said he was postponing the dock move until Monday because of the severe thunderstorms that were being called for in Elberton (where the lakehouse is). So, no need for them to go all the way there if the dock wasn't coming. I.E.- my plans were just gone. Oh, well. No use in crying over spilled milk, eh? Of course, the weather forecast has now changed to no rain until Monday in Elberton. (Sometimes it's as if God is laughing at me.....) I am still going to partake in the bubble bath here in just a minute after I get the girls put to bed. Did I mention that hubby still had to go to the lake with his uncle to get our boat off the dock and out of the water?? Yeah, funny how that worked out. ;0) He is coming back sometime tonight. Gotta love 'em. Well, here's to a hopefully good weekend. The oreos are calling......
