Butter

Does anyone remember the line from Julie and Julia when Juile Powell says, "If we only had 10 days to live I'd spend them eating butter."  Well I do and I think its the best line of the movie by the way but in all seriousness that's pretty much what we're going to be doing around here for the next month.  I just bought EIGHT pounds of butter at the store today.  Yup 8.  It was on the best deal I've ever seen for that brand and cheaper than Costco so I had to stock up and honestly part of me is worried I'll need more before the month is over.  Shawn, Devin, and my sister Poodle have birthdays this month and Thanksgiving so I feel pretty justified in the quantity I bought.  In fact I'm really excited about this month, its going to be awesome.  In fact I think I need to go watch Julie and Julia to channel my inner baker.  I know totally nerdy but instead of judging me for 1)being a dork or 2)buying that much saturated fat in one trip to the store, think really hard about how great butter is and and how if anything tastes good it usually means butter is high on the ingredient list then maybe you'll come to your senses and realize you should actually be jealous that we get to eat all the yummy cakes, pies, and various savory goods and you don't.  I LOVE NOVEMBER!!!

And I"m doing a good deed for Caroline's school, because those little box tops just got her school 80 cents.  My purchase is now totally justified.
