I'm not a baker!
One of my visiting teaching gals dresses her whole family like they just stepped out of a GAP commercial. Always sylin'. So naturally I went straight to her to borrow some shirts for our family pictures. Naughty me...I took forever to return them so it was only proper that I brought along a peace offering. Her favorite cookies are Mother's brand called "Taffy." Thank goodness because I'm not a baker. (Thanks again Harmony for lending us your shirts...hope you got them. You weren't home so I left them on your front door in a bag.)

Our morning Cup of Joe...
This is our morning fruit smoothie that we drink 6 days a week. (On Sunday we cook bacon, eggs and waffles smothered in maple syrup). It's delicious! Here the recipe:
1. 1 scoop of protein powder.
2. Handful of fresh baby spinach (Sounds gross, I know, but you can't even taste it and it's great way to get in a serving of veggies. Not even Matani knows that I secretly stuff spinach in his shake either and he can detect vegies a mile away).
3. Half a banana. Fill the cup up to the brim with frozen berries of your choice.
4. Fill half way up with Pomegranate Juice (or juice of your choice) and the other half with soy milk (or milk of your choice).
Blend and enjoy! I use my Magic Bullet Blender. The container holds approx. 2 cups.
P.S. I accomplished nothing on my list except eating Ben & Jerry's. I came down with the sniffles so I'll try that list again next weekend. Sorry, no fun hair-do to reveal.

Weekend plans (and blogging out loud).
Note to self: "Remember to arrive 15 min early because it's always packed on Sat mornings. As soon as the 7am class lets out run like heck to get a spot. Shove and push if you have to just make it to the front! You must work off the Ben & Jerry's that you're planning on rewarding yourself with on Friday night."
2. Indulge in a L-I-T-T-L-E Ben & Jerry's for "Friday Family Movie Night".
3. Get a haircut!
Note to self: "Just go for it and don't look back! It's time to chop those lovely locks. Try not to cry when they make the first cut. Yeah, your man loves your long hair but he doesn't have to comb through it for 15 min when it's wet. Come on, you only style it on Sunday, the rest of the time it's in a ponytail. Maybe something like..."

4. Take the fam to play in the stream at Catalina Nat'l Park. Note to self: "Go buy some Pepper Spray just in case a bear comes charging out of the bushes. Where would I even go to buy Pepper Spray?"5. Plan Tani's BELATED 4 year old birthday party.
Note to self: "Get it done before he turns 5."
Have a nice weekend!

Pray for NieNie and family...
Several of my favorite blogs have been talking about Stephanie Nielson and her husband Christian who were in a private plane crash on August 16, 2008 in Arizona. The two of them were accompanied by flight instructor Doug Kinneard who later died. They are still in critical condition. Christian suffered burns over 30% of his body and Nie over 80% of her body. They have not seen their children or each other as they are in the burn unit in an Arizona hospital. They are in for months of recovery. 9.07.2008
