Indiana Idylls

Alex and I were playing in the living room this afternoon, and  -- feeling munchy and magnanimous -- I reached over for two chocolates, even thinking as I did that Alex deserved a little treat. I had them both in my hand before my folly was apparent. It's the thought that counts?

My new favorite treat: Dipping OREOs in Chocolate Cool Whip. It's easy to eat with one hand and oh, so tasty! Like a mini cookies 'n' cream sundae. If only we could work some cherries in there somehow. P.S . The organic OREOs are sort of a waste -- you get maybe half the regular number of OREOs, and they're packaged like Samoas instead of Thin Mints. They're tasty, and organic, so they've got that going for them. They were also the ONLY OREOs left last Monday when we went to the store -- they had a special going, where one could buy two OREOs and get a gallon of milk free.

I just learned that Tonya started a blog on Eli's behalf . We're still waiting to hear how his hernia operation went on Monday. I've left two messages and am starting to worry. Anyway, since I don't think anyone's met her, I thought you might enjoy the pictures, if nothing else. There's an especially funny story about our BSU picnic last week that I completely forgot to mention to anyone.
