For months I won’t even look at bananas in the grocery store. I just don’t have a habit of eating bananas. But every once in while I get a craving for them. I don’t know why. Maybe my body is missing some of the vitamins and minerals that come in a banana. Like today, I bought a bunch of 3 ripe, medium sized bananas and couldn’t even wait to get home to bite into one. Tomorrow I will cut up one and put in on top of my Rice Krispies. I don’t have immediate plans for the last one yet. Any ideas?

Here’s hoping that Santa find your house tonight and is very, very good to you!

The day after Thanksgiving is called “Black Friday” by retailers. This is the biggest day for Christmas shoppers and lots of big bargains as retailers do everything they can think of to get you to come into their stores and spend your money there. Some people get up early and leave the house as early as 3:30 am to get the best bargains at the big stores. That is crazy! I’m staying home!

With the bad economy, we hardly ever eat out at restaurants anymore. We just can’t afford it like we used to.

The up side is that I am becoming a pretty good cook. At least I think so. And no one has refused to eat the dinners.

What is it about brothers? They love each other yet they are always competing. Or even fighting. They seem to always have something to prove.

I don’t see this same behavior in sisters. Do you think it is the testosterone?
