Product Endorsements

I've recently discovered some new things I really like, and thought I would share.

Lifesavers Orange Mints
Apparently this new flavor came out in 2006, and it is delicious. Like a giant orange tictac, without the candy shell. I decided to try them the other night at the grocery store and I'm now addicted.


Raisin Bran Crunch
Lori was giving me a hard time the other day about how all my cereals (which I eat non-stop) are sugar-coated and unhealthy. So I decided to try something new. I'm pretty sure it's still sugar-coated, but I can pretend it's healthy. If you like the idea of raisin bran but hate how it gets soggy, then this cereal is for you.

Lamb
This is a hard one for me to post, since I'm pretty sure it would be offensive to at least half of my blog readers. My Aunt once recommended this book to me- the story of the life of Christ as told by his best friend, Levi (called Biff). I loved it- it was hilarious, and it made me think long and hard about Christ as a human being. However, it's definitely a little outside of the box... if you were offended by Monty Python's Life of Brian, this book is not for you. If thinking of Jesus doing typical teenage boy stuff (swearing, curious about sex, initially unsure of his divinity...) offends you, then don't read this! Mormons are definitely not the intended audience, but I think it can do us some good to think about Christ's real day-to-day life, his sense of humor, and his ability to love sinners. That, and it was the funniest thing I've read in ages.

That's all I got for now.

I like the life savers winto-green mints, but it's been banned from our house because it's Lori-repellant

I LOVED that book, it was, as you say a bit irreverent but a typical sense, but it made Jesus so real to me and I loved it. Nice tummy!
