JJ: What is your favorite food? Why? What food will you never eat? Why?

My favorite food is easily lasagna. But not just any lasagna. Only my mom's recipe. I have become a bit of a lasagna snob; having been spoiled by my mom for so many years. It is beyond delicious! 

My second favorite is Tim's red enchilada's. That man can cook! And, really, it's a good thing or my kids would live on spaghetti, mac & cheese, and baked goods.

And anyone that knows me at all knows the food I will never eat. Mayo! It is dis.gust.ing! I really can't stand it. If it is on a sandwich or burger then I just can't eat it. And I don't like anything it's in either. Potato salad, ranch dressing, fry sauce, you get the picture. It is nasty, nasty stuff.

Cookies With Grandma

Every year sometime before Christmas we get together with my mom and sister and make cookies. It has become a tradition and it's one that I love.

All the kids get a turn to stir, roll, and cut out cookies. Plus, we also make hand shaped cookies for each child. I did this as a kid also. Here are some of my favorite pics.

Beckett used the cookie cutter to make his cookie and then got VERY upset that he didn't get to eat it right then. In the end we just gave him the star shaped dough to eat. He was just as happy with that as he would have been with the cookie.

Making hand shaped cookies. My kids really look forward to this part.

And the best part? It's Tim in the Santa suit! Priceless.
