Crunchy Underwear

Tonight my hubby was telling me that someone we know was talking about how their dryer isn't working properly. Guess they have a gas dryer that works but doesn't get hot so it just air dries their clothes. Apparently that makes for "crunchy underwear" so the person he was talking to said they have gone commando a few times because they didn't feel like wearing "crunchy underwear". It was just kind of funny when my hubby was telling me about this so I decided it could be my blog post topic for tonight. Not sure if you'll even find it funny or if reading it is quite as funny as being told it but hopefully it made ya smile at least a little bit!

Trash Goes Here

Whenever my hubby or I collect the trash my little boy will sometimes try to help. We go get the small trash cans from the bathroom and our room to dump them into the big trash can in the kitchen. My son will walk in front of us like he is leading us where we need to go. When we reach the kitchen he will stand there and point to the big trash can as if telling us, "Hey, it goes in here." It's just so cute to watch him try to be so helpful at just one and a half years old. If only they stayed this helpful forever!

Tomatoes

Isn't it crazy how your taste buds can change as you grow older? When I was a kid my grandpa and I would go out to my grandparent's garden, pick a tomato, and sit down with a salt shaker to eat the tomato. As I got older I thought tomatoes were gross!

I also remember my mom would make egg noodles and stewed tomatoes to eat when I was growing up. I remember pushing the tomatoes to the side and just eating the noodles with salt on them.

Now as an adult I have grown to like tomatoes again. I love them on a BLT sandwich and will also eat them on a Subway sandwich or a fast food burger. When I make egg noodles and stewed tomatoes I'll now eat all of it, not just the noodles. I also LOVE fresh made salsa with tomatoes, onions, and jalapenos. Add some salt, pepper, garlic, and grab a bag of tortilla chips for dipping then ta da, you have a tasty little snack! Mmmm mmmm good! Yummy to the tummy!

I still am not overly fond of them too much in a salad or fresh with salt over them but do eat more tomatoes now than I use to. Makes me wonder how my kids taste buds will change as they grow older? Only time will tell!

When It Was Too Cold

I remember back when it was cold and snowy! These pictures were taken back on March 21, 2010. I took them with all intentions of blogging about the snowstorm that moved through at that time but never got it posted.

I'm pretty sure that when all this snow was falling I was hoping for warmer weather. I can't stand the cold! I freeze in wintertime so I look forward to spring and summer.

Now that it is ninety degrees and smothering hot, I am not loving it quite so much! If it is super duper hot in your region right now, maybe looking at these pictures will help cool ya off!

Covering Up

My son is going through a phase right now where he wants to be covered up with a blanket when he is curling up on my lap on the couch or when I am rocking him for his nap or bedtime.

Now, you're probably thinking, what is wrong with that? Well, nothing really except for the fact that it is pretty warm in our house right now because we don't currently have our air conditioning on yet. Not quite ready for the electric bill that comes with the cold air conditioner air!

Soooo.....when it is eighty some degrees outside and my little guy wants to curl up on the couch on me with a quilt or thick blanket, it can get very warm!
