Babies are a great excuse to celebrate and be optimistic about the future. All the potential, the smiles, the cuddles and hugs, and uh, the sleep-deprived days....
It's totally worth it!

Congratulations Pat & Hannah!
John's cousin, Patrick, and his wife, Hannah, are new parents today! Liliana Rose came into this world about 9:30am.

A fan of Batman, Jason Bourne, Jesse Stone & Luke Skywalker, Sam Beckett (Quantum Leap) and Gary Hobson (Early Edition)
I'm a chicken when it comes to scary movies. A good mystery or story bigger than life is what's fun for me. Our nephew, Will, gave us the dvd's for "Batman Begins" and "The Dark Knight". We'd already seen (and loved) "Batman Begins", but it was Alex's dvd and he took it with him when he moved out.
We had NOT seen "The Dark Knight" yet. My kids and their cousins (including Will and his girlfriend, Rachel) went to see it opening night (at midnight) last summer during our 50th birthday party/reunion. They loved it, of course. We've watched "The Dark Knight" almost every evening since Christmas (and one night we had to have a double-feature with "Batman Begins" first).

New recipe for crunchy bread....
Fortunately, my husband likes to create in the kitchen. He makes real noodles for his chicken noodle soup (the one I request most often) and homemade bread, in several different varieties.
This is a new one, on the King Arthur Flour site so he mixed the 'starter' last night, and this evening, we had hot, fresh, crunchy, yummy bread with our supper.
He has come home from a restaurant, looked for a recipe for a 'guide' and duplicated some of the foods we have enjoyed (like Stromboli, with homemade sauce and bread) with the first attempt!
I used to cook when the kids were home, but now it doesn't seem as important as other things I want to accomplish.
Happy New Year everybody!!!
