Baking for Bogie (Woo-hoo, RECIPE!)

Sometimes mama gets it SO DAMN RIGHT. Normally I wouldn’t let her anywhere near the stove, she’s just not terribly domestically-inclined, and has a bad habit of setting off smoke alarms with her, ahem, “cooking”.  Apparently, she bought “ingredients” to make some cookies for me awhile ago, and they have been taunting her ever since. …

THE WIENERMOBILE!!!

Occasionally I think that my mama and dad are a little, well, crazy.  Sometimes I cannot understand the things they do.  I’ve always chalked that up to being just a well-that’s-another-species kind of thing, and I sometimes get a nice chuckle at their expense.  But tonight they did something SO spectacular and semi-crazy, that I…
