This is what we're flaming about today.

Seriously, could we worry about more important stuff in our schools, please?   Looks like the food police have laid down the law at yet another school in the U.S.(Read the article here.) Now, I don't believe in sending my kids a bag of chips and a soda for lunch and call it good, but really?  Banning Flaming Cheetos?  Not plain Cheetos, those are, apparently, fair game.  Are they against gay chips? Just kidding. Which is, in all seriousness, what I thought the argument against them was going to be about.  But no, they don't want orange cheese dust on their walls, and they're nutritional devoid.  I can think of several products that are messier and just as void of nutrients as Cheetos.

The Prodigal Blogger Returns

I have a Swagbucks widget at the bottom of this blog which I check from time to time to see if there are any Swagcodes to be found.   I looked at the date on my last post.  It was in August of 2011.  Guess I've been a tad lazy keeping this thing up!  Ahem.  Instead of just jumping in like I've never left I'm going to use this time to say "I'm baaaaaaack!!!!"  Did ya miss me?  All 2 of you who read this?(my sister and some person from Russia.....)   I'm just going to start fresh.   I renamed this blog a while back to better reflect what it's about, and this is what I never got around to say:

I would really like to get into blogging more but what in the world do I write about?  I'm not crafty, so I have nothing there.   I'm an OK cook but I don't Iron Chef anything too earth-shattering.  I bake, but it's always something that I've stolen from  discovered on Pinterest.  I'm a mom, but I wouldn't take advice from a parent who lets her kids watch Family Guy.  So what do I really have to offer?  Well, nothing really.  But.  I do have a lot of weird random thoughts that pop up from time to time(In the shower, at work, at 3 am when the craziest ideas make sense) and I need a place to put them all down.  I can't even count the number of million dollar ideas that have just fallen out of my head because I didn't take the time to get it all down.  That, to me, is tragic.   So I'm going to blog at least every other day and if it gets read, fabulous!  And if not, then I have a place to put down my ideas that are going to make me MILLIONS.(Next time you see a Roomba snowblower, think of me.)
