Bites Around the Blogosphere




Been a while, hasn't it?

I'll get to this week's Bites in just a second. First, I thought I'd share a bit of what I've been up to. First of all, here comes Christmas, charging full speed ahead. Are you almost done shopping? I have just a few things to pick up and I'm finished. Hubs and I are really scaling back this year on our purchases. I like it this way. Less stress. Less financial strain. More enjoyment. What could be better?

Also, as if I haven't mentioned it enough, WE'RE MOVING TO GERMANY! We report to Grafenwoehr in September. I've been using Rosetta Stone to learn the language, and I've been looking at pictures and stories about Bavaria. I'm so excited. Wouldn't you be? Look at what I have to look forward to (photos found @ google.com):




...and that's just in Grafenwoehr! As time passes, I'll share more about Europe and what I learn. So far, I can tell you, in German, all about my small, white dog, my sandwiches and eggs and milk, numbers through six, and a little about men, women, kids, and clothing.

On we go....today's Bites:

Pumpkin Cranberry Pecan Upside-Down Cake at Beantown Baker

Grilled Chicken with Bacon Balsamic Glaze at Jenn's Food Journey

Spicy Corn Cakes with Black Beans at Lucy's Soup Can

See you tomorrow for the week's menu plan!
