I have an obsession with granola. I love trying new flavors. We were at Whole Foods yesterday, and I was checking out the granola. The Imaginative One had to tell me to step away from the granola area because I didn’t need to buy too many of them. I just love eating them with either…

11. Hubby – He’s been a brave soul trying the new foods I’ve been cooking. A lot of them, he’s actually liked :) Yeah! 12. My favorite book series – Leslie Meier’s Lucy Stone series, Joanna Fluke’s Hannah Swenson series – I love visiting my “friends” and catching up with them. 13. Spring is almost…
