I bet

these words are never spoken in YOUR home...

"Guess who's the most irresponsible?  SHE is. SHE lost the prayer chicken."

Hoollava: industrious or hard-working

Katharine to her friend, during carpool:
"My mom gave me her old ipod. It has this black case on it, but if you take it off, there's engraving on the back that has her name and the words 'a helluva engineer'. Its what type of engineer she is in Swedish."

Zimtsterne

Dear Santa Claus,

If you do not like these cookies, I do not want to hear about it. They were incredibly hard to make because the recipes I found were incredibly terrible recipes. I am in the process of writing my own so I never ever have to go through this pain again. Aren't they pretty though?

Love,
The Fox Family

Merry Christmas!

Our Chef

Katharine made a wonderful dinner for us tonight. She has a DS game (America's Test Kitchen) and she picked two recipes and made them (with a SMALL amount of help from me, mostly in picking recipes that did not require a knife). I am very proud of her, it tasted GREAT. We enjoyed molasses spice cookies, tomato cream soup and turkey bacon club sandwiches. The soup was fantastic - made from scratch (cause it took forever) but worth the wait.

Now daddy is doing the dishes :)

Your Birthday Suit

Girl, Aged 8: Just think, when I'm in high school, I bet people will be wearing their birthday suits to school!
Dad:  You've been mentioning your birthday suit a lot lately.  Do you even know what that is?
G: Yeah... it's an extra nice set of clothes you wear on your birthday.  I keep reading it in different books.  Like that old book I'm reading, the dad said, all we have is the birthday suit God gave us. 
Mom: Umm. No. not exactly
D: What were you wearing on your first birthday?
G: I don't know, I wasn't there.
M: When you were first born...
G: But I was naked!
D: Exactly.  THAT is your birthday suit.
G: Oh.  huh.  Well I can't wear that to school.
M: Yeah, so we'd appreciate it if you'd stop referencing your birthday suit all of the time.
