My inventive husband and his obsession with Life Hacker

Phil enjoys figuring things out, trying new things, and knowing everything about it. He loves lifehacker.com a blog about tips and downloads for getting things done. He checks it every day and probably multiple times a day. Every once in a while he sends me links to tips he thinks I might like. Yesterday he sent me this link. We tried them out and they actually were pretty good. I think I still prefer them in the oven but if you are in a time crunch and have a cookie craving just put a ball of cookie dough in your waffle iron and you will get a waffle cookie in less than 90 seconds.

Notice what's on the TV? Yes we ate cookies while watching Biggest Loser... doesn't seem right does it.

Now that's a big bumble bee


Phil is such a good sport. I was so bummed about being out of town for Halloween this year because I got Rosie a costume (I'm weird I know). Sine he knew I was sad about not getting to hand out candy and get Rosie all dressed up he spent his Halloween night dressing Rosie up, taking tons of pictures for me and handing out candy to the cute trick or treaters. Too bad he ran out of candy in one hour (apparently there are lots of kids in the neighborhood)!

Meanwhile in Ocala, FL I was busy setting up this...
not an actual picture of the new store

This past week I spent long hours in Florida unpacking boxes, merchandising the store, and conducting lots and lots of training. It was such a great experience and I had lots of fun. I am exhausted though and am thankful for a thoughtful manager who gave me the weekend off! Yay that NEVER happens!
