  • Well, the pumpkin pie flavored yogurt was on clearance for a very good reason! That stuff is nasty!!!   Oh well, half the pack was vanilla, so we'll still use that, and the value is still good for that amount of only vanilla.  So, I'm still happy with the deal!

    The church sermon was very good today.  The pastor talked about the gifts from the Magi, and the history behind that story.  It was good and he was very passionate about what he was saying. 

    This afternoon I made a new recipe- Apple Raisin Oven Pancake.  It was ok=it had more of an egg taste that I expected, which was a little odd.  I won't make it again, but I probably will eat all of it without having any go to waste, so that is good.  Here is a picture of it-the raisins sink to the bottom so you can't see them, but they are in there!

     

    I am reading Toxic People.  This is a book my sister gave to me.  She read it and wanted me to read it, so I am, and then I'll return it to her.  It is about different types of personalities and how to deal with each one.  I find some of the stories hard to believe, and I haven't yet gotten to the part of how to deal with each personality-I am still in the section where the writer (Lillian Glass) is describing each type of personality that she feels she has identified.  I'm not sure how I'll end up liking the book as far as using the suggestions it offers, but it is interesting to read.

    Off I go-working on a few last loads of laundry and cleaning up a few things before going back to the work week.

    Hope that everyone here has had a great Sunday!

  • At first I thought this was a pie!

    Seems like "toxic" was the buzz word for 2012! :)

  • The apple raisin oven pancake looks good....surprised it was so eggy.  Did you put syrup on it?

    Don't know about that book.  If I was still working; I'd probably be more interested.

  • This looks really good! At first I thought it was peaches. I bet you could have thrown the pumpkin yogurt in some pumpkin bread to get rid of it. Anyway, enjoy your pancake!

  • Well I know not to buy any pumpkin flavoured yogurt, but then again I hate pumpkin to begin with and I never buy yoghurt so I won't have to worry about it to begin with ! It's good that there is passion with what is being talked about in those services. If the passion isn't there a lot of people will tune out and the message won't be reaching many people and that is never a good thing with those sort of sermons. It's always interesting to try out new recipes as you never know what to expect. And of course if its not something you don't like you certainly don't have to blame your cooking, but the recipe itself !

    That sounds like a fascinating book that you are reading. I'm sure you will get a lot out of it, though I can imagine there are similar books that base people and their personalities in different ways. The joys of reading however will give you the opportunity to read the ones you want and you will decide which one you like best. Take care and have a great start to the week, bye for now.

  • I was thinking of the same thing with the pumpkin yogurt     I also thought it was a pie until you said "pancake".
