Ryan’s. Veggie Tales. Love them both. Though I thought that ne’er the twain shall meet, I was WRONG!
If you darken the doors at Ryan’s, HomeTown Buffet, and Old Country Buffet in the early part of 2015, you’ll be greeted with this awesome poster:

Normally this thread centers around books that you should read this weekend, but today I want to share an amazing movie with you. Coming out on February 10, 2015, you can watch 23 Blast on Amazon instant video. Consider getting it as a Valentine’s Day gift, because it’s a movie you’ll likely keep as a favorite. We immediately liked the movie because of the opening scenes; Pee Wee sports and Fred Thompson rank right up there with our favorites! It also won me over right away because the story takes place in Corbin, KY, where I’ve traveled dozens of times on my way to visit my mom. Soon the rest of this true story caught fire in our hearts. It’s a movie that I’ll suggest to people time and again.

Since my mom wasn’t native to the US, she didn’t know how to make many American foods. Mom had to work hard to learn to prepare “normal” dishes that my friends loved. I remember the first time I tried french toast at a sleepover! I came home to tell my mom about it, so she asked my friend’s mom for the recipe. As far as I knew, pancakes came from a just-add-water Bisquick box. It never occurred to me that pancakes could be prepared from scratch. He loves pancakes the way that bears love honey. When I’m too tired to decide what to cook, we have “Brinner.” Breakfast for dinner is always popular with my kids! We try lots of different recipes, including sour cream pancakes and fruit-topped goodness. Unfortunately, the first pancakes of the batch always had to be thrown away because they were burned to a crisp. The griddle was never quite hot enough, then it was too hot, then it scorched the pancakes. Finally, FINALLY, I learned a special trick. No more burnt pancakes! [Read more…]

My favorite thing about my new van is the hands-free Bluetooth option for my phone. It makes things so much easier and safer! I can easily talk with my husband without putting my kids’ lives at risk. My husband has an older vehicle that doesn’t have the Bluetooth option. I never realized that it was so easy to get this set up with a Bluetooth hands-free car kit from Kinivo! It just requires a 3.5mm audio input in your car, which many cars have these days. They sent us a kit to try out, plus one lucky reader will win the headphones in this giveaway!
