Well, it's official. Winter is here. Jack Frost has nipped at my nose. That jerk. I just took the dogs out for their last potty trip of the night, and I could see my breath. Baby, it's cold outside!

The weather forecast is calling for a big snow storm tomorrow night and all day Tuesday. You know what that means...time to unpack the winter sweaters!

Guest Blogger....My hysterical sister Jennifer sent me this text today.

Dear Sour Patch kids,
Why do you tempt me with your tangy yumminess? Are you sweet or are you sour? Who cares, you are great either way!

Love,
Jen

A letter to...

Dear Blog,

I love you, and I feel I must apologize to you for this horrendous new Halloween background. I have done you an injustice. I will not rest until a new background is found. Oh, and dearest blog, I must also apologize for lying to you. I will rest tonight....but I will be thinking about nothing except finding you a suitable background tomorrow while I'm at work and can get paid for my creativity.

Thank you for never judging me.
Love,
Me

A letter to...



Dear Socks,

We meet again. I am once again reminded of how much I hate you. And apparently you hate me as well. I decided to try looking at some knee socks today like April suggested last year and I started sneezing as soon as I walked in to the sock section. Stupid wool. Now I itch all over and am using my back scratcher to scratch my face, hands, head, feet...you get the picture.

You are dead to me.

Insincerely,
Stacy

Dear Dunkin Donuts

I have been a fan...neigh, an obsessed admirer...of yours since birth. Growing up on the East Coast, where there is a cute little white building with pink roof on practically every corner, I was spoiled by the abundance of vanilla creme filled powder sugar covered deliciousness. Oh..and Boston Cremes and crispy coconut coating. Oooh... and don't even get me STARTED on the Munchkin donut holes! And the creamy goodness of your hot chocolate!

Sadly, I moved to Utah 15 years ago where there is no Dunkin Donuts in existence. Nor is there one within a 1500 mile radius...give or take a few hundred miles. I have learned to make do with buying a few dozen of your ooey gooeyness when I've traveled to New York, Connecticut and Boston over the years, smuggling them back in my suit case. I had resigned myself to this and had even felt like I'd moved on from the tears and tantrums over not having one of your perfectly powerdery smelling stores near me.

And then Dunkin Donuts...just as I'd accepted the delicious donuts at the neighborhood Harmons as my new faves, and pretty much gotten you out of my mind, you started selling your coffee in the local grocery stores. As if THAT alone was not enough, you started advertising on tv your donuts and breakfast sandwhiches. Taunting me with pictures of my past love. I feel that this is cruel and unusual punishment. No one (namely me) should be subjected to this kind of torture.

I stand up for all Dunkin Donut lovers out there shouting "You should not advertise in areas that you don't have a damn donut stand"! There! I 've said it. And you even made me swear. Way to go Dunkin Donuts. WAY. TO. GO. I hope you're proud of yourself.

Let's play the Fortunately Unfortunately game.

Unfortunately I found an unopened package of Halloween Oreos in the cupboard yesterday. This is an unfortunately because usually I am crippled by the powers of the Oreo. I have been known to eat an entire package in one day. Yikes!

Fortunately we have jr. fat boys in the freezer and after eating 1 of those (ok, 2) I was able to resist the Oreos and only eat about 10. or was it 15?

Wait a minute...maybe those are both unfortunately's. I'll have to think about this while I eat another Oreo.
