Spudnuts at Gma Great's

As a child, I grew up traveling a lot as an "army brat".  Visiting my only living grandma was just about every other year for family reunions.  I don't remember doing a lot of baking with grandma.  Carl, however, grew up going to his grandma's house who lived just 15 minutes away and baking with her. 

So today, Carl, the kids and I, went to Great Gma Gloria's to make spudnuts.  It was so fun and great to make the memory.
Spudnuts are donuts made with potatoes...its an Idaho thing, I think.  I am so excited because its a secret family recipe and I don't really have any of those.  So if you want these delicious, taste better than Krispy Kreme donuts, you will have to just have me make them for you.  I am not the "chef" in my family...I cook because we have to eat.  I am a good cook, I just don't like doing it as much as other stuff.  But when I am in the mood to bake and make goodies...its quite fun.  I am mostly excited about the fact that Carl's grandma trusts me with a secret family recipe...that's cool. 

Thanks Great Gma for letting me make a "baking memory" with you.  I have plenty with my mom, but not many with a grandma.

Doesn't Carl look so cute in his grandma's apron...what a manly stud.

B.S.U. ya baby

Carl has always been a BSU fan...I am fairly new to the team.  So, for Carl's 32nd birthday, I got him tickets to the BSU vs TCU game a few weeks ago.  It was not their best game, and we lost...but it was so fun to go with Carl.  Its been awhile since I have been to a football game, I used to love going to games...so it was fun, cold, but fun.

I love that the kids get into it too.  They didn't get to go to the actual game, but they wanted to wear their gear and cheer the team on...so fun.
