Lately... {5.9.12}

...I've been loving this cookbook.  Current favorite.  It's one of those I checked out from the library and then immediately ordered from Amazon.

...my hold on this book finally came through at the library.  I need to finish it and two that follow before the other two movies come out.  My son read them when they first came out.  I wish I'd followed suit sooner.

...the whole family saw this movie over opening weekend.  Loved it - it was so fun!  Finally a good Hulk.

...I bawled my eyes out while my heart broke for Channing Tatum's character in this movie.  And why is Rachel McAdams so stinking cute?

...I'm eating avocado fries dipped in anything I can get my hands on.  Yup. Still using and enjoying this cookbook.
...I found this fun questionnaire at mi amiga Leslie's "other" blog and thought I'd join in the fun!  A little more about me from A to Z...

    Wait! Did you steal my cat and snap a photo of him? Fun learning more about the woman behind the delicious food.

    Your avocado fries look amazing, I had bookmarked those in the book. Now I need to make them. My newest obsession is Minute Maid Light Lemonade. I'll have to look for the mango, sounds so good.

    Okay, it's getting dangerous visiting you! Every time I come here I end up buying another cookbook - my Amazon habit is getting so much worse :-) You have a great eye for them though - every one I've bought on your recommendation is one that I actually use. They never just sit on the shelf! So I'm thanking you, although my cookbook budget is not :-) Actually I'm not sure we even have a cookbook budget.... I enjoyed reading 'a little more about you' too!

    Honestly, I'm not sure. Aside from several bookshelves, I have numerous plastic tubs lining the basement with "older" ones. One of these days I'll get them all out and organize and count them. Not sure which day that will be, but... I rarely get rid of a cookbook. I mean, the minute I do, I'll surely need it!

    That is a fun game. I might have to get in on that! I hate cleaning toilets too. By far the worst job.
