They look wonderful. Cheesecake isn't so hard, IMO. It's less like baking (to this awful baker) and more like cooking (which I can do well.)

Thanks! I hope my husband is surprised and impressed. He knows I have dreaded making cheesecake for years.

I used to feel the same way. But once we got married Dh wouldn't let me use that excuse. He grew up raising his own, killing them, and eating a whole lot more of the chicken than I'm used to! So now I'll deal with bones and stuff, but I still don't eat the weird parts of the chicken!
We eat a lot of chicken (very, very little red meat and pork) so we buy (almost) everything - breasts, thighs, wings, whole, drums, ground. I get it all bone in skin on unless there is a sale on something else.
Donna - when the pic opened in a new window, all I saw was the empty pan! I thought "wow it must have been really good...and she's taunting us!" P.S. Send one of those my way!

So my 13 year old nephew was supposed to come spend the weekend with us (and his 14th birthday next week), but he's not allowed to come now because he was caught looking at porn all night.
I managed to convince his dad to let him come by here this morning. His parents at the end of their rope dealing with it. This kid has been caught looking at it by almost everyone in the family on more than one occasion and he still never learns. His parents have "tried everything they can think of."
I put that in quotations because I don't think they have tried everything. I think this is his rebellion about his parents always working and never being home. His parents both work two jobs. The thing is they choose to work. If they managed their money properly and stopped wasting it on themselves, they could probably get by on the father's one income.
From a very young age this boy has had the majority of responsibility placed on him and he has pretty much raised his three younger siblings. I know it affects him, he's alluded to it in conversation before.
Anyways, he's asleep on the couch right now. Once our other nephew leaves for school this morning I want to talk to the kid. I'm hoping I can get him to open up about why he is doing this, and how he feels about things at home. Everyone in the family can see that the parents are harming the children by working so much, except for them, and they don't listen when we try to talk to them. I think the son is afraid to say something to him. So I'm hoping that this will open things up.
Any suggestions about opening up conversation with him? He pretty much has no choice to talk to me. He's not allowed to watch tv, play video games or do anything other than sit on my couch right now. I'm going to tell him plainly that anything he doesn't want told to his parents won't be, but that I'm trying to make things work for everyone. Because even though the parents say they are going to take away all his priveleges and make him miserable over the summer, they're going to just go back to work and leave him home alone.

Thanks Sandy!
Yolanda, I always wonder how you're up so early! I come on here at what seems like a crazy time to me that no one should be up at...and you're here and an hour ahead of me!

LOL...the advert for that show slays me! The first time it heard it on tv, I wasn't paying attention, and I hear someone say "there's a party in my" and my mind automatically went the wrong way! I thought he was going to say "there's a party in my pants." (Shame on you Lexie!)

Aawww, poor baby! Diaper rash is the pits. But rocking your little precious boy back to sleep is divine! I hope he sleep long and well for you, Yolanda.
Yo Gabba - totally freaked me out the first time....I wasn't sure if it was going to make it to the approved list...but their silly songs always have a good lesson involved. Our fav is "Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, STOP!"

Sandy, I have thought of you with awe and amazement these last few days. Dave is only out of town for the week and I am so tired by the time I have to corral my 3 crazies into bed at night.
Thank-you for all your family is doing for my family's freedom. God bless you!

Hunter was kind and slept in until 8:00 this morning so maybe we are on our way to a normal schedule again. I made pancakes for breakfast, hubby is going to mow the grass, I will clean, Hunter will nap, and then maybe we will do something this evening then again maybe we will be bums all day. It is times like this I miss being near family and getting to spend the holidays with them even if it is just 4th of July.
(((Lexie))) Regarding your nephew!

my soldier! 
we were up for hours last night. I don't know what the problem is, but apparently we weren't sleeping. 
Oh my kids would soooo try that too!
