The Cole's: The Little Things

I have been missing my home like crazy, seriously, I just want my house back. I want my kitchen, my washer and dryer, my back yard, my driveway, my garage, my junk, my neighbors. All of it. I want it all back. I miss my family, both mine and Daves, I miss my friends. Everything. I miss it. But, I like it here too. I love the birds, armadillos, turtles, possums, I love being this close to Dave's oldest sister and her family and her in-laws, I love staying home with my Owen, I love Panera Bakery, I love the weather- heat, hail, rain, humidity, and as long as the tornado's stay a safe distance away I love them too.

I was really wanting a rootbeer float yesterday. Like super bad. But unlike my husband who is "so glad he can eat whatever he wants and not gain any weight" That doesn't work for me as good as it used to. Darn, I know. So I was at the store and heard people talking about making rootbeer floats. Are you serious? Now I want one extra bad! While I was in the check out line I knew I could get a pack of my favorite gum to 'satisfy' that itch for SUGAR, I reached in to the Extra Dessert Delights Apple Pie Box and threw a pack of gum on my pile of 'stuff'. When I got home I needed a piece of gum and I needed it ~~now~~ then!! So I found it in the bag and looked at it..........

ROOT BEER FLOAT!!!

You have to be freaking kidding me!!!!!!!!!! Literally an answered prayer- I know most people might think thats dumb but its the little things ;) I had no idea this flavor even existed, I thought they only had chocolate mint ice cream, apple pie, strawberry shortcake, and orange cream. It is delish by the way! I scratched my itch for sugar with 5 calories and 0 sugar ..mmmmmm :) !!
