  8. Man the mail in rebates!!!!!! I might have to shop there online as the store opening time is to early.
  9. I love a lot of things with cranberry. Might have to try the jello for dinner on Sunday
  10. I agree 100%.... It is nothing like searching for a toy and finally getting it a week before Christmas and to see there face when they open it. PRICELESS
  11. I undertand and have been there too, but we have to shake it and enjoy the holiday season. BF is just a bonus but the reason for the seasons is what we should focus on. Life has a way of sucking the joy out of you so I decided a long time ago to make sure I put joy in and around me everyday. I choose to be in the moment and happy. So even if you decide to shop online at least make sure you enjoy the holiday.
  12. Yes and they especially need to stop if it is not a Deal.
  13. Not bad at all. Now since they are doing early sales Friday I wonder in Walmart is going to try and get in on it. Come on Walmart dont be scared.
  14. Yes but the system and games are still good. The new game will cost more and most parents will stick to the one s or X before moving to the new system.
  15. My sister went to stein mart and got stuff for her family for there pictures this weekend. I am doing PJ's this here and still looking for the best deal. Amazon has a good set for $12 each.

Add egg yolks, 1 at a time; beat until blended after each addition. Combine coffee and molasses. Add flour mixture to the butter mixture alternately with the coffee mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Beat at low speed just until blended.
