My neighborhood has never done the Boo-ing thing so I thought I’d get it started this year. (At least I don’t think we have. Know one has ever booed me so they better not be doing it without me.) Because, have I mentioned that I love Halloween??? I’m not sure if I have mentioned that […]

I don’t know about you but I love the taste of white chocolate and raspberries together. It’s heaven in my mouth. Except for one small problem. I don’t like raspberries. The seeds get stuck in my teeth and then I have to pick them out and I feel like Gramma from The Beverly Hillbillies. It’s […]
