so frustrated, celiac's

I am so frustrated! Poor Ana, seems like any time we go somewhere she has a celiac reaction the next day. I don't know if she picked something up at church or at Mom's but she definitely got something. She's been screaming and pooping the whole day.
We're in the process of trying to find an easy rice milk to pop open and pour, that's also Feingold safe.
I've been making all of her food and I need a BREAK!

ewwww gross, it's mom and dad

From Movies

old cookbooks

You know I love old cookbooks

Making Tamales

I'm trying to post this as a video but I'm not sure if it will work straight from Picassa. If it's just a picture, come back tomorrow and I'll have it fixed

Having fun with my playlist

We found our old 40's music on a computer file that we forgot. I've been looking up songs for my playlist. It's a big adventure cause usually they're not there since it's fairly modern. But, every once in a while I find a great one.

Only the british can do this

Cake Wrecks

Copied from "Cake Wrecks" I read it all the time but some strike me as more funny than others...

But Where are the Blue Birds?

So Dawn W. was throwing a Wizard of Oz cast party, and she knew better than to order anything as complicated as a Yellow Brick Road cake. So instead, she simply asked for a cake with "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" on it.

Now, if you've read this blog for any time at all, then you're probably expecting the same thing I was - an inscription that looks like this:

"Some Wear"
The Rainbow

I'm pleased to report that's NOT what happened. No, Dawn received something far more...colorful.


At first I thought the decorator was just being clever, but then I noticed the "Somewheres". Yeah. Well, there went that theory.
