"Grapples"...more like "CRAPples"

So I went grocery shopping earlier today and while looking through the fruit, I saw something called 'Grapples'. They looked interesting enough, so I bought them to see what they would taste like...

I tried one and yes, it tasted like an apple...BUT, with a grape jolly rancher somehow twisted into it. Strange. VERY strange. I really like apples, and any candy that is grape flavored...but definitely not a grape-flavored apple. It was like biting into a regular Fugi apple and then -BAM- strong artificial grape flavoring. Needless to say I am disappointed that I spent money on them. Maybe since there are three apples (CRAPples) left, I can figure out something to make with them...for some reason i think they would taste good frozen...hmmm...maybe I'll try it.

On a better note, here is a picture of my lovely daughter's smiling "cheesy" face. She's such a nutball...

Oh...and I almost forgot...here is my 2nd photo for my Flickr 52 week photo project! Let me know what you think...I will be uploading week 3 on Monday :)

More than halfway done with this deployment...hubby can't come home soon enough...I miss him...he did get the heart-shaped brownies and cookies that I made him. Said they were really good. I am so happy they didn't spoil en route. :)

Fun day looking for Waldo...

So I was at a friend's house tonight for a party and she brought out one of these "Where's Waldo Glitter Wands". Talk about addicting, challenging and frustrating! I decided I wanted to look them up to see how much it would cost, because they have had theirs for about 11 years...and the LOWEST price I found them for was starting bid at $50 on Ebay! Guess I'm not getting one of those, but it sure was fun! After a long time of searching with lower lights, brighter lights and an insane amount of eye-squinting...we found Waldo!!

Can YOU find him?

Horrible quality because I took it on my cellphone, but omg it is definitely harder than it looks to find him. I miss "Where's Waldo", and all of the other games I had as a kid- like "I Spy". I think my parents still have the I Spy books from when I was younger, I think I may have to ask them to send one of them to me so my daughter can play with it when she gets old enough!

One thing I really love about having a daughter is all of the memories it brings back from my childhood, especially the nostalgia of all the fun games I used to play, cartoons I used to watch, places I used to go...and she is turning ONE on November 2nd, then there is Christmas, so maybe I can spoil her with some fun old-time games and toys (that of course I will be playing with as well)!! :)
