The most amazing pancakes. Ever.

I have spent way too much time trying to figure out my photo download situation.  I think I’ve finally figured out that it’s just not possible to use my Canon software to download my photos.  It sounds like Canon will release an update in October to fix the problem.  But in the meantime, I thinkContinue Reading

Fun with protein powder on a Friday night

Wild Friday night over at this house.  Let me tell you.  While Chris is off in Vegas at a Bachelor party I decided to experiment with protein powder and see what kind of semi healthy treats I could make.  I made 3 things and while all of them are delicious, I don’t know how “healthy”Continue Reading
