did you know that if you melt chocolate chips with some sourcream and a touch of flavorings (sugar, coffee, whiskey, vanilla) you get a lovely, yummy dip for your green apple slices?

I just thought I'd share that, because that's been a recent happiness.

And the boy yelling "Go robot! Go robot!" as his longed for Christmas robot spins around the room.

And the girl asking for "wipstick" so I give her some lip balm, and she says "mama!" so I put some on myself, and then we kiss, tasting like pomegranate oil and beeswax.

(sorry for my long absence from the happy pages. I'm trying to play more.)
