We live in the country, and since DH has the car duing the day, the boys and I can get pretty bored. With heat creeping up to 105 today, I forsee the need for a Plan KK! Thanks for stopping by!

I agree that cooking/baking is a great distraction for kids. My daughter loves to cook/bake with me :) Those cookies look great! Since I probably don't live that far from you (I'm in Louisiana too)...I totally understand what you mean about the heat! Since I've injured my knee, I haven't been out much these past few weeks, but I'm not complaining because of the heat...lol. Stoppy by from HHWC :) Yummm!

I am the only person in my family who sends them. After my girl's birthday and Christmas, people were asking me why I was sending them cards...manners, people. Proper etiquette. Just because we live in Louisiana doesn't mean we are backward...LOL Great blog! That’s awesome you are teaching your kids about thank you notes. I am the only person in my family who sends them.

I still don't know if I can make the switch. There is nothing like holding a book in your hand and hearing the spine creak as you turn the page. I even like the smell of a new book. I am a sick, sick puppy!! I may have to make the switch though because I am literally drowning in my book collection. Or better yet...maybe its time for a bigger house.

It's a little bit of an adjustment from regular books, but it saves space, and you can download the books instantly, anywhere, which is a big plus for me, as I like instant gratification. Also, the fact that Amazon keeps your books backed up means that you will always be able to re-download them if you ever needed to. The Kindle DX won't be available until summer,and the only difference is that the screen size is 21/2 times the size of Kindle 2. I actually prefer Kindle 2, because it fits better in my hand, and is a bit more portable. The Kindle DX is really aimed at people who want it mainly for newspapers and magazines. It's more magazine size, while Kindle 2 is book size. For me, it is awesome, because I literally am out of room in this house. I could not buy more books without selling some or giving them away, which I hate to do. Now, I don't have to worry about that! Let me know how it turns out! Hey Libby,
