I just learned that the correct spelling of barbecue is barbecue not barbeque, its a very common mistake. I have been learning a lot while I have been organizing my recipes.

Thanksgiving
We spent Thanksgiving this year in Idaho. We ate lots of food. Went shopping. Decorated the tree (Wes was enchanted with all the lights). Watched movies. Ate more food. Played games. Watched the BYU game. Played video games (the boys). The usual fun vacation stuff, it was a blast, and now we are a few pounds heavier.

The Mormon Way
We were reading US News today and found this article with Elder M. Russell Ballard. It's pretty interesting, I like how the church came off sounding real.

Puddin
I just wanted to remind everyone about pudding. I was feeling like I needed some chocolate last night after dinner and I found a box of chocolate pudding in the cupboard. Well for $.50 (it may have been a little more, I can't remember) it's a pretty good dessert. That's probably why we had it all the time growing up. You can always make your own from bakers chocolate and real cream and vanilla, yum, or make the powdered kind which takes about 30 seconds.
