Friday Fave Five!

1. Mom for taking over my little problem with the Christmas dress for kiddo. I should find out how that's going ... bwahaha.
2. Pumpkin muffins. I made a double batch without chocolate chips this time, and then froze them. Guess what? When kiddo has them for breakfast, I feel like less of a failure than when I tell her to make a breakfast shake (chocolate milk, really) because we're out of time in the mornings.
3. MamaBear for telling me about the inexpensive but sucky (in a good way) vacuum. I still haven't been able to vacuum the whole house but plan to when hubby gets up today.
4. DisGrace for watching baby for an hour yesterday while I went shopping with my mom. And hubby for recognizing I needed a nap yesterday and taking the baby so I could have one.
5. Getting my federal tax return filed. Fortunately, it's more than enough to cover what we owe in state taxes but not as much as we were hoping for.

yw! i'm so glad we found it - we said, hey, it's worth a $40 gamble that it will work, and if it dies in a year, who cares! but we do not vacuum often enough to kill it so soon. probably. :D

been reading seriously so blessed so i'm sounding a little Happy Valley...

Exactly -- If I have to buy another one in a year, that's okay. At least for now, the baby is safe from small objects hiding in our carpet because they are gone.

I left out the chocolate chips because dairy-free chocolate is a fortune.

I'm allergic to bananas, but oh, I miss banana bread ...
