Highlights From This Week

Things I learned this week:

Don't wash all the oven mitts in one load....and then think it will be okay to use a tea towel to get cornbread out of the oven, since all the oven mitts are in the dryer.

Babies teething isn't that bad....at least one adorable baby getting one tiny tooth and soaking everything in a ten mile radius with drool, isn't that bad. And, more importantly, drool doesn't smell as bad as spit-up.

I can take a video on my phone and then email that video to people.

Avocados taste good.

MMD is a baby whisperer.

Mexican Train Dominos is a fun game. And our friends are still talking to me after I enforced our household rule of no cell phones at the table.

John Adams defended (as in, he was their lawyer during the trials) the British soliders involved in the Boston Massacre. And he won. And it seems (journals, letters, David McCullough) he did it because he thought everyone deserved the right to a trial.

Target sells things, like waffle makers, that make donut holes, donuts, and items called cake pops.
