Pie Night

So Melanie Bassett has whats called Pie Night, she has everyone over for a night of all-you-can- possibly-eat pies! Everyone brings one and we all eat pie the Sunday before Thanksgiving, because on Thanksgiving you are too stuffed to actually eat, or at least enjoy the pie. So here is pic of some of the pies and people!

Its Snowing!

It's Pie Day (The Sunday before Thanksgiving) and we had our first snow in Hershey this year. We maybe have had a couple of flurries here and there, but we walked out of the Bassett's house and WOW- Snow, so here is a pic.

Eeeewwww!

Steve hurt his foot running the other day. Here is a look at it just to see how bad it really is. He has a follow up with Ortho today. He really messed it up.

Two Chefs in the kitchen

Amber and I decided to make a recipe she saw in the Cooking Light magazine. We make Pumpkin ravioli with Gorgonzola sauce. This picture hardly does it justice. It was TJ and Ambers first experience with Gorgonzola, pretty strong cheese! We all liked it and next time it will even be better. Way to go Us!

Why Mommy?

Ok, so today is the day! It happened, Bennett was stepping on a box that I have to send to his Grandma and I asked him to not stand on it. He thought for about 5 WHOLE seconds (That can really be a while) and (its like slow motion to me) asks..............."Why?" Now, not a big deal right? Well those of you who know Bennett, KNOW! He can repeat the same word like a million times! For example, "eat Mommy, eat Mommy, eat Mommy, eat Mommy" or "Mommy home?, Mommy Home? Mommy Home? (His is asking this in the car, he wonders if we are going home)" or "Sick, sick, Mommy, Sick, sick, Mommy Sick, Mommy sick," Ok so you get it! But- I am now awaiting more "Why Mommy?, Why?.....Mommy? Why?" So today is the day it starts...............anyone know when it ends? Did I mention he has asked "why?" about ten times in the last 3 minutes while I was typing this post?
