We were at the Indian store the other day to buy some masala spice mixes for my cooking. Bobo came in and was not having a good time, even though I was! Go figure. So in order to distract him while I was weighing the pros and cons of cumin and ginger to ground mango powder and chili, my mom grabbed a bunch of little cookie packets which were on special. One packet she grabbed was… CARDAMOM flavored. If you’ve ever tasted cardamom… well, I wouldn’t say exactly that it belongs in a cookie (or anything, imho), but that’s great…

So as I was pouring the last of our farm-fresh ridiculously expensive glass-bottled heavy cream (which we got while strawberry picking) into my hot cocoa, I once again pondered the various types of cream and dairy products. I could never get a straight answer as to what the difference between heavy cream and whipping cream was. I tried to look it up before and things were still unclear, and finally tonight, wikipedia cleared it up for me! Hurrah! So here in the US, this is the differences between creams: Half and Half (10.5–18% fat) Light, coffee, or table cream (18–30%…

Eww! Bobosaurus Vs. the Blue Goo from Beyond (sounds like one of those Godzilla sequels)… It’s actually just blue Go-Gurt gone awry… Bobo likes these things but you don’t get as much as you do in a yogurt cup, and I have to sit there and constantly squeeze it up for him… what a pain!

Bobo and I were dancing the other day, right before we went out somewhere and Bobo loved it! He thought dancing for the camera was the best thing ever… but most of the shots came out blurry and just deleted them in the camera… not realizing that I deleted all but one of the Bobo! So here is mostly me (following Miz Booshay’s rules of getting in the picture more often)! 🙂

Take the Quiz here! Before I started this blog I would always see fun little quizzes and memes that would go around everyone else’s blogs, and wanted to join in. Now that I am actually posting on my blog, no one I know has posted any!! But, I found this one on a site I came across and decided to do it. Especially since I haven’t been posting lately. We’ve been busy and the rain has just sucked the life out of me… three weeks now of ucky rainy days… and I LIKE rainy days. It’s just too much, we…

Ok, so not really… I’m just doing a bunch of other stuff! I have millions of Bobo photos to put up, seems once again I’ll never get around to everything. We’ve been doing a lot of projects/summer cleaning around the house and I’ve been spending a large percent of my ‘computer time’ doing stuff related to my summer class… which I’m finding pretty challenging compared to the previous two. Heaven help me come fall when I will be taking FOUR, including the super deadly horrifyingly impossible DBA III class (if I even get into it… eek). On the Bobo front…

A project I have been wanting to do for a loooooong time was to finally put all our travel photos up in one place… over time I put various trips up on various websites and that’s all fine, but I want a place where I can leave them as large as I want, and write stories about what was happening in each one if I felt like it… So finally I settled on the brilliant idea about making a new blog for my old travels. Yey. Now just comes the actual doing… That’s what this picture is from, I’m going…

When my mom came home from Mexico, she told us about this amazing french toast she had for breakfast there, and how it was to *die* for. She was going to recreate it for us, and bought a loaf of thick Texas Style bread to do so. She didn’t quite get around to it, so I decided to give it a try based on her description… so here is my Mexican Cinnamon Sugar French Toast: First start with some thick bread, my mom found this Texas Style bread at the store. Then whip up some french toast batter… throw in…
