Hi there, first things first.. Last week I forgot to announce the winner of this month's 6 month gift subscription. The winner is: Hope Orbits. Congratulations! Please e-mail me and I will let you know how to claim your prize.

This is coming out late today, as we took the day off and went to the town about an hour away for some shopping. We had a nice time, but wow, it was humid today! Every time I tried on clothes I was sweating like crazy. Apparently we are supposed to get quite the rain storm tomorrow. After our shopping we enjoyed dinner at one of our favorite places - the Chinese Buffet. My two older boys ate and ate and ate. I couldn't believe how much they ate. Matt and I were ready to leave and I think Ryan went back three more times before he would let us leave. They must be growing....

Speaking of growing....our kitty's belly is really growing. It seems that every day it is noticeably larger. She is starting to waddle and have a hard time jumping up very high. I am thinking those kittens are going to pop out any day now.

FYI: My menu planning service is going to have a small price increase next month. Therefore, if you have been considering becoming a subscriber, now would be a good time. If you join the monthly subscription program before the prices are raised you will be locked in at the current price for as long as you are a member.

Mom CEO is a great new book by Jodie Lynn. I am happy to announce that I was a contributor to the book. Therefore, Dine Without Whine recipes are featured throughout the publication. If you click on the picture above it will take you to Amazon where you can learn more about it.
