I know no one checks this blog anymore now that Jonny's taken over the Block Family blog with his political satire, but I wanted to mention something food related that I've discovered that I LOVE.
I have found cranberries! Obviously, it's the season for them, etc, but I've never used them besides cranberry sauce from a can or cranberry juice. Anyway, the other day, I bought a bag of regular cranberries, followed the directions on the back (which consists of boiling and adding sugar; really easy!), and voila! I had instant cranberry sauce to add to whatever I wanted! I used it on oatmeal, mixed it with applesauce for both Caleb and Matthew, and as a side at dinner (although John refused it--big surprise--because it was too bitter). Next time, I'd probably add more sugar when I boil it to make it just a little sweeter and more palatable. I'm loooking forward to buying more, boiling them, and using them in breads and muffins.
Today, both boys have been having diarrhea and vomiting, so I went and voted early, but then canceled everything else (Caleb's school, I was supposed to pick up 2 hrs at work, and have a friend over for lunch..). We're all home today instead, and the house is airing out from that lovely smell of vomit. :) They're both FINE now....
And, one more thing--it's GORGEOUS WEATHER! So while we're home today, maybe we'll go for a bike ride or something--we've got to take advantage of this weather while we can!
love you guys...

YAY! I'm so glad someone is actually using this blog again, 'cuz I love it! I know I don't enter too much on it due to my un-affinity with emailing from home, but I love reading it. Sarah, I'm still waiting for thee to enter some of those delicious soups we made during Sept!
