Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey presents Barnum’s FUNundrum

My family and I went to Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey presents Barnum’s FUNundrum last night. I have one word for it: AWESOME. Okay, I may have yelled that, but my husband and I enjoyed the show just as much as the kids. Now, we did go to the show last year, and it was good. However, the show had a lot of magic in it and that isn’t something that I remember the circus having. However, this show was exactly how I remember the circus as a kid. It was awesome to see my kids faces light up with awe and delight (though Madison’s could have been from the ENTIRE bag of cotton candy she ate. She also fell asleep on the way home, so I don’t think the pound of sugar she ate affected her all that much). If this show comes to your down, seriously, you have to go. It is great.

First, there is the preshow. Madison actually got pulled out of the crowd for this!  (she’s in a red shirt!)

The opening of the show:

Some of the acts:

My own personal favorite part was when the super hero clowns pulled up:

The close of the show was an awesome celebration too!

I’d recommend every family to go see this show.  It’s that good!

I love cookies

Who wants a cookie? I know that I always could go for a cookie no matter when it is. However, I think I own one cookie recipe (actually make that two because I have a chocolate chip recipe and a Christmas cookie recipe). Bill and the kids get bored of my one chocolate chip recipe and are constantly bugging me that I should find some new cookie recipes. I think I found the site to solve all my cookie problems.

Popular Cookie Recipes is the site to go to when you are looking for the best cookie recipes. I also learned some cool facts about cookies that I am definitely going to be using in my next Trivia Pursuit game. Did you know that the first cookies were really miniature cakes used to test oven temperatures before the baker cooked the final cake? There is a long history that follows the cookie that I never would have guessed that I learned tonight. Anybody want to challenge me?

The real reason I wanted to check out the cookie site was for the recipes and I was not disappointed. All the recipes listed are super easy to make and hard to screw up. You know, my type of recipe. I looked at everything from the Chocolate Chip Recipe to Snickerdoodle Recipe to the Gingerbread Recipe. I think I could handle all of them.

The more I keep talking about cookies, the hungrier I keep getting. Needless to say, I think I am baking some cookies tonight. Anybody want to join me?
