A Dry Jingle Survives the WeatherIt was very cold and wet last night (and today), but Jingle was prepared. Using A's fireman boot and X's dinosaur umbrella, Jingle made the trip to the North Pole and back just in time
Texas (Chex Mix) Trash
On Sunday, the oven, not the stove, was used all day! Once a year I make three huge aluminum roasting tins (that would each hold a large turkey) full of Texas Trash. We missed last year and there was mutiny from friends and family. I thought I even saw a small tear in one child's eye (just kidding). It takes about 7 hours to make and takes pulling out a tin and rotating the mix every 15 minutes for the entire duration to do it right. Of course that means almost nothing else can happen during that 7 hours. That means it was Harry Potter Day at our house. The kids watched 95% of both the first and second HP movies (excluding the extra scary scenes) and even got to see most of the second one a second time. HP 3 and later are too "dark" for 3 and 5-year-olds.
