But it also gives you somewhat of an excuse to cook and bake some really great things. The holidays are especially the case for that between all of our church activities, my kids' Christmas party and their class holiday parties at school. I've been baking so many cookies lately, but I don't really mind it. I love baking cookies and also eating them too!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px;font-size:130%;" &gt;But I thought that maybe I could find a new recipe or two to try out for this holiday season. It never hurts to have a few extra recipes on hand. While I was online looking up some recipes, I came across some info on &lt;a href="http://hearingaids.miracle-ear.com/hearing-locations/alaska/w/wasilla/"&gt;miracle ear&lt;/a&gt;. I forwarded it to my husband and convinced him to go and get fitted with some hearing aids.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px;font-size:130%;" &gt;I found this one really cute &lt;a href="http://www.athriftymrs.com/2011/12/best-christmas-cookie-recipes.html"&gt;cute Christmas cookie&lt;/a&gt; that I really took over the top with some holiday cookie cutters.

That's why I basically just gave up on the second movie after I found out that it wasn't going to have him in it. There just aren't any good T-birds unless he's a part of the group! But as far as a play version of Grease goes, I'm find to watch one without John Travolta because I know that I have no other option!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" &gt;I got to thinking about that not too long ago when my granddaughter told me that she was going to be in a production of Grease. While I was online looking up more information for it, I ran across a lot of &lt;a href="http://hearingaids.miracle-ear.com/"&gt;hearing aids&lt;/a&gt; info. They're something I've considered getting for quite some time anyway, so i looked into them more and got fitted with some.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" &gt;She did such a great job in her &lt;a href="http://frothygirlz.com/2011/02/23/musical-review-grease-at-kansas-city-music-hall/"&gt;Grease play&lt;/a&gt; and I was so surprised that she was able to memorize all of those parts.

It was my week to bring the booze. Of course the game was on a Sunday and I forgot to pick up the beer on Saturday. Unfortunately, I live in a state that bans alcohol sales on Sunday. I realized that I had forgotten the icy beverages when we wear eating Sunday &lt;a href="http://www.realsimple.com/food-recipes/recipe-collections-favorites/seasonal/mothers-day-brunch-recipes-00000000012355/index.html"&gt;brunch&lt;/a&gt;. I freaked and new that everyone would be disappointed. The boys especially look forward to cracking open a cold one, eating pizza, and watching the game. As soon as we got home, I got started on the beer hunt. I called my parents, friends, and even co-workers that lived nearby. I explained the situation and asked if I could buy any beer than they had in their fridges. I even offered to replace and deliver what I had borrowed the next day. I was surprised what a stockpile I was able to pull out of the woodwork.
