Thank you @Graceonline. They do almost look like stained glass. Definitely an eye-catching cookie for Valentine's Day :)

Its a clever system - i'm guessing that visitors have to pay to enter parks in Fl? I in fact would need my passport to visit - as I live in NZ - but I'd like to get to Florida - obviously to see Cape Canaveral (sp) and Epicott but this would be a cool contrast. Not sure about the canoeing though - don't you guys have crocs?

@caniwi - one of the advantages of working from home is that its easy to have good breakfast, the disadvantage is the bloody fridge - but at least its out of sight and downstairs!

@beth - well done you! Yeah 200lbs - now that I know its 90kg sounds pretty good to me too!

@tssfacts - thanks for the idea! I have found having public goals for my writing does help so no reason why it shouldn't work for weight loss either!

@ohcaroline - the sweets aren' the boss? REALLY!!! You mean I can control them? Hmm i'll have to work on that!

That's great Dustytoes that you live in an area with lots of trees. I once lived in a part of Kansas where there were hardly any trees at all so I certainly learned to appreciate them a lot more!

Too true, it can definitely burn a home in one's bank account. Even without children, constantly eating out is an expensive concept.

I used the OAMC method when I was teaching full time and working on my master's degree at night. It was the only way we could have a decent meal on the table. Eating out is not only unhealthy but expensive.

Love this idea. Birthdays don't have to be Disney focused. They can be centered on the wonders of science and learning.

Hi Sheri and Dustytoes. Thank you for commenting.

Yes, the Celtic men can be romantic, if they want to be.

Dustytoes - LOL Then you'll have to hand it straight back with a 'could do better' look on your face!

@Sam Kids love that a brain jello mold freaks out adults!
@Paula Excellent. Kids learn really well when they're having fun. And we need more kids growing up knowledgeable about science.

I have been trying to decide why I need an iPad, so this is good reference in my favor. Love the ideas on this.

My nephew is very much into science, and I just sent him a science kit for Chanukah. Great ideas here.

Well, I love trees, but don't need to plant any where I live in NH. I am surrounded by them. That opening photo is awesome!

Goodness, you read my mind. I always get all my good ideas in the shower then when I think about it later, I can never remember! Very cool article and solution.

What a nice tradition, except I'd be the one who got the "sloppy, worm-ridden twig"!
I also love Laura's spoons - very nice!

Thanks for sharing. I'm on my own journey to fitness and healthy size right now myself. I'm walking and riding most days and trying to cut down on those darned sweets that think they own me. I'm trying to show them who's boss. Best to you on your journey.
