Favorite Things Thursday

Look at me go! Two weeks in a row for FTT...nevermind that 3-4 page memoir I need to write...or that looming Math test...or the other 47 (seriously) books I need to read for Children's Lit...or sleep...I have things I need to share!

I guess I could have waited to share my love of these until today...but I couldn't! I HAD to get the urge to buy more out of my system ASAP. My husband probably would have fainted if one more cardboard box from them showed up on our doorstep!

I made these guys for Super Bowl Sunday and oh man...yumm-o! They are pretty rich though so just a small piece did it for me!

We're teaching our children responsibilities...and of course along with responsibilities comes rewards and consequences. We had a handy dandy dry erase chore chart for them UNTIL they got a hold of the Sharpie and wrote on it. ;) So, I was looking online for a new one and found something even better. It allows the girls to log in and check off their chores and as they do this they earn "points" which in turn allows them to "buy" different things from their parents or they can set up a savings goal. It's really cool and I think the girls are going to love it. You can customize it to fit your family!

And as our little ladie's are getting older and wanting to get on the internet to play games I've found this to help protect them. Of course we are never far when they are online but we all know how easy it is to stumble across things online. Our computer is in our family room so we can always see the screen but it's nice to know that this program will block even unwanted ads! And best of all...It's totally free!!!

That's all for today! Please...tell me your favorite things!
