Are they slowly cooking us?

So the other day I filled up the van and it came up to 50$ and I thought"only 50$ " What the heck A few years ago i would have sat down and cried. So I was thinking about that story you hear about the frog in the pot. You know the one. Something about slowly cooking the frog without it being aware. In a few years will we even blink at a 90 $ tank of gas. Or maybe will run on corn by then.

Be proud of your burnt toast!

That is what I got from the relief society Broadcast this year. It was a great eye opener for me. We are too tough on ourselves. Sure there is room for improvement but we women need to chill. I loved the broadcast and the company I went with. Thanks for a fun day.(yes, in Korea it took us all day, most of that day in the car. The time went pretty fast because we were solving all the worlds problems) So my sisters,next time you serve up slop for dinner, be proud. It is good enough.

p.s. mom wants me to clear up that those boys in the back are NOT our dates, they just brought all of us flowers they are like our bros!!

Improper use of chopsticks!

So this is how my kids use chopsticks. Does this mean we watch to much Harry Potter? Or is it just common sense that a chopstick looks more like a wand the an eating utensil? I don't know.
I m also sad to say that I heard them shouting at least two of the unforgivable curses. Is nothing sacred? Man I love these kids but if I got a letter from Hogwarts tomorrow I would pack their trunks and put them on a train.
