!i! The Thief At The Grocery Store !i!

It was a day like any other. I was grocery shopping with my mom, gathering the things that we would need for the upcoming week.

Nobody knew he was there. Nobody knew he had come right through the front door.

He caught my eye as he headed over the the cracker aisle. There were lots of treats in the cracker aisle. He was in heaven.

And then...he began to eat. Without even paying...he began to eat right in the middle of that cracker aisle!

I dared not approach him...for he seemed...busy. So I carefully pulled out my camera phone and snapped a picture so I could later show authorities.

I will share that photo with you now...so you can be on the lookout for this grocery store thief!

!i! February's Day of Love !i!

For Valentine's Day, we decided to keep it simple. After all, our real Valentine's day present is coming next month with a week in Hawaii. We celebrated Valentine's Day on the 13th because A.J. had to work on Valentine's Day.

There was really only one thing I wanted for Valentine's Day. And AJ, being the attentive husband that he is, picked up on my many hints. I did not want flowers because flowers die. I wanted something more sweet. I wanted...

PEANUT BUTTER M&Ms!

A.J. had also made dinner for us. I was very impressed. This was no small feat. He made Chicken Alfredo Pizza from scratch! This included making the pizza dough! Yeast intimidates me, but he did a great job! It was delicious!!

For A.J's present, he wanted me to make him a dessert. After I got home from work, I whipped up some Pumpkin Chocolate Chip cookies! (I have posted the recipe on the food blog).

I really enjoyed keeping things simple this year. Valentine's Day is about spending time with the people that you love and showing them how much you love them. You don't need much money for that.
