My Current Obsessions

Special K Chocolatey Delight
I seriously could eat this instead of ice cream. Try it, you'll love it!
Caffeine Free Dr Pepper
I have found this gem in two places: Payson, AZ Walmart and the Walmart down the street from me now. Thank goodness too, because I was really starting to envy Jon whenever he got a Dr Pepper.
Paxton's Baby Einstein Jumperoo
Pax LOVES this thing. He bounces in it for the longest time and it plays music. He just found out that if he yells while he's bouncing, his voice sounds funny so he does that now too :)
My ERGO baby carrier
This carrier blows the Bjorn out of the water! (for me at least) Pax seriously thinks Im holding him in this thing and the thicker waste strap means that my back and shoulders never hurt. Its a big help when Im doing things around the house and my baby wants to be held.
Mod Podge
Can a glue-type product win a Nobel Prize? Because this thing has changed my life. Soon I will post pictures of my latest projects Ive completed but for now, I give a round of applause for this wonder in a bottle.
I Heart Naptime with Chocolate Sundaes (best blog ever)
Need I say more? Im working on a project to add to one of the craft parties but for now I am really enjoying all the ideas and links to other amazing blogs.
My rice cooker
Did you know you can cook salmon in this thing? Thanks to the convenient little steamer basket it came with, I not only can cook rice but also steam veggies and fish. I recently used it to melt chocolate and maintain a perfect temp for dipping AND I cook my steel cut oats in it as well. I got this as a wedding gift, tried it once and couldnt figure it out, put it in my cupboard and havent used it until just recently. Oh my, am I glad I have this now!
Thats all for now :)

We love our rice cooker too, I do not like everyone trying to use it for chocolate dipping, hot cereal, whatever, so I have officially banned it from anything but rice!!!
