When I was in England I ate heavenly cupcakes from Marks & Spencers. Raspberry and white chocolate, and lemon meringue. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that I have thought about them every. single. day. since. Who says I'm an obsessi...

We have five versions of Trivial Pursuit. I remember a time when Todd and I used to play Trivial Pursuit every. single. day. We had a brand-new baby and a toddler. Todd was finishing his Bachelor's degree and that was our entertainment. Good tim...
