I’m cheating today. I have cookies and potato salad to make for a party tomorrow.

Considering I co-author Your Cre8tivity and decided to start posting recipes there on Fridays I thought I would link back to the first one of the series and will continue to link to the recipes I post. After all, what is cooking but time very well wasted?

Today I started with Peanut Butter Fudge Refrigerator Cookies which I swiped from my dad and added notes for diabetics. I made these with Splenda recently and they turned out very good, at least Sloane and I thought so.

I may, eventually, post a variation of enchiladas that runs in the family. The absolute original I’m forsworn not to share.

If cooking isn’t your thing then I have another distraction for you.

As good as the graphics on today’s games are I still find myself longing for the good ol days when I was in the single digits of age and the Nintendo came out. The fact that Pong turned 40 this month made that need for nostalgia all the more powerful and I’ve been spending time more and more on vNES.

vNES offers over 500 hundred titles for your pleasure and memory of the 8 bit Nintendo games and I’ve been drowning myself in Solomon’s Key lately. Hellfire I still remember sitting for hours on end with my mom playing that game.

Go cook or go play but above everything else, enjoy what you do.
