Holy Cow-it's been a month! "Holy cow" what does that mean anyways? Is it a phrase we somehow adopted from the Hindu religion? If so, what does that mean about "holy guacamole"?

For now, I'll give a quick preview of some topics and fun! Cody is still the cutest dog ever, though his tail may be the death of me (and my computer!) I'm cleaning out my cupboards, so there's some interesting/creative recipes (Velveeta is the Great Equalizer-processed cheese makes everything a little better.) And this......
