I brought in Christmas decorations for the office and set up a snack table. It looks so festive and I've encouraged everyone to bring in snacks until vacation. So far my ideas for snacks are; nuts and bolts, assorted Christmas chocolates, After Eights, chocolate cherry's etc, my green onion dip, maybe chips and salsa one day. Give me your ideas for office snacks that can sit out basically all day. This stuff is addicting www.geniuskitchen.com/recipe/puppy-chow-or-monkey-munch-74048LOVE this stuff! Good idea

LOVE this stuff! Good idea I think I might try to make it with sunflower butter for my mom since she's allergic to peanut.

Ima Hog is awful. I think our last name could potentially be one to make fun of as a little kid, but people pronounce it incorrectly all the time and the mispronunciation is not funny at all. I worked with a woman whose married name was blows (spelled differently). She made a wise choice to keep her maiden name while teaching high school freshmen.

vino, any kind of trail mix, spiced chick peas, or homemade granola bars could easily sit out. I have a Better Homes and Gardens recipe for salami, pistachios, and something else as a snack mix. It was delicious . I'll search for it for you.

If there's an outlet, that's a game changer. You can do all kinds of really great dips in the crockpot – spinach artichoke, queso, meatballs, chili, even a simple soup!

I would change my name and I'm always astonished that there have been generations of women who let their husbands pass this on. Nope, we'll be using my maiden name for the kids. Thanks. Especially when you have a gem like Ima Hogg. True story. Not even kidding, one time I had to call one of our hospitals to check for discharge and I swear I had to give a disclaimer to the person in medical records because I had four patients with animal names and I didn't want them to think it was a prank: Hogg, Lamb, Fox, and Pigg.

I think the $$$$ in the Butt family makes the last name not so bad to have.

wineallthetime your LN is not that bad and let's face it, a lot of people aren't very bright. They probably don't even know what one is...

sands42 not on sale. I think they were 35. But do comfy. I felt like I was wearing pj pants. @yummy I say H-E-B tgrimes is that real or a myth. I heard it was twin girls. Ima and Youra Hogg I grew up with a girl who had the last name Krapp. We would pronounce is crop but she would always correct us. “It’s not crop, it’s crap!” How exciting mskatiep!!

Thankfully DH got home early b/c a certain someone was driving me crazy wanting to open gifts. (rookie move--I put them all out on the dining room table). After everything was opened we took him out to the driveway and opened the garage. The car was a hit and we let him do a little test drive; it's a miracle neither my nor DH's cars suffered damage in the process, but by the end he was figuring it out DH and B are currently assembling the train table...I really hope he'll enjoy it as much as he enjoys ones at libraries, the haircut place, etc. b/c this thing is HUGE. We're going out to eat tonight and will come back home for cookie cake.
