I Didn't Know My Husband Has a Blog!

...Well, his blog only has two postings, much like mine to date. (Of course his posts are about his personal thoughts and ideas on current American politics, while mine are about...dessert, potty-training, pyrotechnics, mental health and the like.) It kind of made Chris seem somewhat mysterious to me to find this out, like when we were dating nine years ago and we were just getting to know each other. We easily amuse each other/ easily find the other amusing. I think it is mainly because we have three beautiful children under the age of four and are thus sleep deprived. (Think: seeing things sleep-deprived. And on the verge of cracking sleep-deprived. Sigh.)
He is sleeping at the other end of the couch with my feet in his lap as I write. I had been looking for a recipe for ooey gooey butter bars just like Mom used to make~ when upon finding it on one of those "I-heart-butter-Southern-cooking-caramelized-everything-with-some-mo-butter-on-the-side" sites~ was saddened by the fact that I have few of the necessary ingredients on hand to make the ooey gooey butter bars. How can this be?
The sad fate of dessert-from-scratch-wanton housewives everywhere who do not have the necessary ingredients on hand, is that we are also too weary at the end of the day to make a special trip to the grocery store to pick up a few nutritiously questionable ingredients. (In my case: a yellow cake mix, corn syrup, sweetened condensed milk~ hence the words ooey gooey in recipe title.)
Chris has now moved from the couch to the floor and is asleep again.
Post.
