1. Bachelor Pad. Knowing that I get to plop down on the couch and watch people embarrass themselves on national television for money makes Mondays SO much better. I'm hoping that Ed has one too many glasses of wine again this week. It makes for GREAT tv.
2. Smarter Than A 5th Grader App. This might be the most addicting game on my phone that I've ever played. It makes work go by so much faster. Wait, you actually thought I did work at work? Oh no!...are you crazy?!
3. Fried Pickles. I was literally fantasizing about making these pickles ALL day today. Notice the quotation marks in the title. These babies look fried and taste fried, but they aren't fried! They are actually baked! Yummy! They most certainly were just as delicious as I imagined.

I have to admit fried pickles sounds so bizarre and that's why I have to try these.
ReplyDeleteWell i've never tried fried pickles, but to be healthy i guess the best way to go would be to try them baked first! :)
