I love the big unsweetened biscuits (classic-reminds me of Christmas), the small frosted (malt o' meal-standard), and my most recent addition: Kashi Autumn Wheat and Kashi Cinnamon Harvest. THEY ARE THE BEST!!!! Perfect amount of sweetness and flavor. Oh my they are so good. They were only $2/box at walmart! I should have stocked up...

Celia,
Crazy. I somehow came across your blog. It has been a LONG time. I'm loving your blog entries. Your #36 what is your favorite toy, brought back a memory. I remember your many back flips in a row on your super bouncy trampoline. You taught me how to do a back flip and then after I landed on my head I could never do it again. I've missed all my Snowflake friends... great years, great memories!! ~Wendy (Peterson)
Holy Smokes! Wendy Peterson. Welcome. It's been a long time. When I saw your name the first thing I thought of was a slumber party we had at your house. I vaguely remember the trampoline incident, and I am sad you were scarred for life. Yes, our tramp was super bouncy.
What a fun tag! I, too, like learning random facts about people, but I have the hardest time writing them up about myself.
You didn't like Dan in Real Life? I totally loved it! Funny. It reminded me a ton of my family.
You've gotta try the Cafe Rio pork salad with vinagrette. Oh, so, yummo.
I still think of you with red hair (even though it hasn't been red for years :)
I LOVE the cosby shows too! maybe for the trip out we will get them. I think the kids would love it.
Lindsay: I don't know why, but I find it easy to talk about myself. You're more than welcome to take this tag. It would be fun to read.
Jacqui: the short (and probably least offensive) answer is no, I didn't care for it. And I've tried C.R.'s pork in the salad, as well as their vinaigrette, and I'm not a real fan of either. There's just something about their tomatillo dressing that I looooove. I have a pretty decent copy cat recipe that I use when I miss it too much.
Juls, you ought to own them. Never a better show made. The humor appeals to such a range of ages because 1. Cosby is so silly and 2. the ages of the characters span from 4yr old to grandparents. Even listening to it from the front seat it will bring back memories and make you laugh.
so fun to read your responses to these! i totally agree about the cafe rio salad. that is one thing i miss about Utah.
