Random thoughts...

You know how you see things that you're immediately drawn too? Like your favorite flower out of a bunch, your favorite color out of the rainbow. Or maybe your flipping through a magazine or even sales paper and spot your favorite design of clothes. I don't know why, but I'm naturally drawn to looking at little boy clothes, I just love all the blues and greens. Even before I was blessed with 4 boys of my own, I always preferred to see those cute little clothes with puppy dogs on them or sports balls. You would think it would be the opposite since that's all I see, but no, I enjoy it. So I guess it was good I had all boys, LOL!

Every time I see a new cookbook, even my old ones, I'm naturally drawn to go straight to the sweet section! Not that I have a huge sweet tooth, I just love to bake. I love to mix and create something and have it bake up in the oven while creating a scrumptious aroma in the air! Whether it be homemade rolls, cake or cookies, I love to use my oven. I hurt my back a few weeks ago (it's been hurting on and off since I was 19 and in a serious car accident) and I couldn't bake anything at all for a week. Nothing, didn't even turn my oven on! I hurt it in the middle of making Banana Muffins with Evan (my 4 yr old) I had bent down to get my mini muffin pan out and heard a pop. OUCH!! My husband had to get them out for me when they were done and I knew I had to rest my back. Bending over to get things in and out of the oven really hurts my back for some reason, no matter how I bend.
So my back healed from that, oh did I mention all 6 of us had strep throat then also? Not fun! But thankfully we healed from that also and here we are now, only another problem. A week and a half ago I re-joined Weight Watchers. Yay for me, but not so good for baking. You see, I've noticed when I'm doing WW's I don't seem to bake a lot, it's too tempting. So this is a major problem since my blog's name is Love from the Oven! So I may have to think of other things to post about, as I'm sure you don't want to read about me cleaning the house or doing laundry, LOL!

I may re-design my blog so it will be easier for me to blog. Right now I have a template where to create a link I literally have to write a computer code for it! I feel like I'm part computer programmer whenever I blog, LOL! I just need to simplify things on there so I can post quickly and smoothly.
