The "What's up with you?" post

It's October! It's October! It's October! I sent Mickey to school with a sweatshirt on this morning...ahhh, fall. The cool temps in the morning and the crisp evenings are almost enough to help me get over summer being over. Maybe by the end of the month I'll be okay.

First things first:

-- I've got some news that is burning a hole in my pocket but I want to wait just a few more days before divulging. Stay tuned!

-- My roommate at BlogHer '08 (Mary of Owlhaven) just completed 30 Days of Nothing, and managed to feed her family of twelve on $194 during September. Read about how she did it and see if you're not just a little inspired.

-- This week I found a new way to season my one and only healthy addiction: edamame. Sprinkle on a mixture of equal parts chili powder and Lawry's seasoning. Used it on shelled or not shelled. You shall be amazed.

-- When we went to the fair the other day, the boys (and Pete and I) were captivated by three of these guys. Even the website is fun...

That's it in the what's-up-with-you department. Don't forget, check back for some news around Friday-ish.
