Hello friends, a few random thoughts for today.
Saturday was my husband Chris' birthday. He turned 41. As I will be 43 in a few weeks I can't mock him for his age. I'll have a birthday post coming once I get all of the pictures uploaded.
Also, today is Oskar's 5th birthday.

Chris got a book on Michigan architecture & I think I really dig architecture. I could't design it, because I can't draw and my brain doesn't work that way, but I like looking at it. Random, huh?

My son Jack went to the orthodontist and got his bands replaced on his braces. He got the rainbow colored bands & they look awesomely cool! I tried to take a picture, but he didn't like how his hair looked in it. *boys*

I placed a ton of short book reviews on my book review site, Mimi's Year In Books. If you're a reader there's some really good choices there. I would LOVE it if you would follow me there too.

I just found out that my Diet Sunkist orange soda has caffeine in it. No wonder I haven't been able to sleep. Since when has Orange pop had caffeine? Is this one of those situations where everyone else knows this but me?

In an article this weekend I saw mention of Steve Martin. You know the guy who revolutionized comedy in the 70's? It said & I quote, "Martin, best known for his role opposite Queen Latifah, in Bringing Down The House..." Yeah, movies like The Jerk, Planes, Trains & Automobiles, Pennies From Heaven, Three Amigos, and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, pale in comparison to a bad collaboration with Queen Latifah. *insert eye roll*

If the rule is 'i' before 'e' except after 'c' then why is caffEIne spelled that way?

One last Jack story. I took a casserole out of the fridge that I made yesterday. Jack asked what was in it. I said chicken & artichoke hearts. Jack said, "I though artichokes were plants!! You mean their not?" Since they have hearts he thought they were some creature. I couldn't make this stuff up.
BTW this casserole is delicious. It's at my friend Emily's site Marvelous Recipes. Here's a link to the Chicken & Artichoke dinner recipe.

Happy Birthday Chris and Oskar! Pam, you and Chris both look waaaay too young to be anywhere near 40!!! I will check out your book review site. I seem to always forget that you have more than one site!

I love how your mind works - I totally "get" you. Orange pop has caffeine??? I didn't know!. . .and that is the cutest dog! Awwwww.
Happy birthday to you, your husband and the dog!
You're such a good mom... most wouldnt care & put up the picture BECAUSE the kiddo didnt like their hair. Its all about embarassement! :)
Happy Birthday to everyone in your home... a busy birthday time!
Ooowooo, you have a toyboy ;-)
Happy birthday to everyone. And Rebecca Jo is right about the embarrassment and you being a good mom for respecting that.
;-)
I didn't think orange pop had caffeine either! Happy birthday to your hubs!
I find it so hilarious that your son was worried about his hair!
Oh my...my husband is going to have a fit about the orange pop...NO way.
Happy Birthday to Oskar and Chris.
