Anyone know what kind of mug that is?

We make potato latkes - I'm Jewish and my husbands family has been nice enough to add this to the Christmas morning tradition. Yum.

We make a feta/spinach casserole every year. So easy and delicious (and healthier I think...) Frozen Chopped Spinach (4 boxes - thawed and slightly drained), crumbled feta, bread crumbs, eggs in the oven and voila - so good!!'

Watched my parents make toddy all the time as a kid...now I watch my husband put it together once a week and am enjoying a sip of it's delicious results right now.

Three cheese fondue - first time trying it out. Dipping broccoli, asparagus, fresh baked herb bread, and granny smith apple. Hope it's good! (How could it not be, cheese is involved!)

We make a version of your chocolate toffee matzoh recipe - make extra so you can freeze it and snack long after Passover is over. So yummy.

Also on the menu will be my favorite farfel muffins along with our other usual favorites. And I make a veg friendly matzoh ball soup! I love Passover food!

BAKING galore. Cut out sugar cookies with various frostings and in many different shapes for a gathering to meet my newborn nephew...and a banana bread is just finishing up in the oven.

It's not about having a TV in EVERY room, or even that it's a look I'm completely in love with. However, my living room is 10.5' by 10' and I don't have floor space to put an entertainment center or shelf for the TV. I love the fireplace. I enjoy watching TV. I am happy to have them both in my living room and when the TV is off and the fireplace is roaring I don't feel that my teeny living room is centered around a television set. The day we mounted the TV above the fireplace was a happy one in our household.

Working in the TV industry and being a part of one of the few 'caring' crews - I would still not open up my home for a shoot. Think about a crew of people using your bathroom all day, possibly ruining your hardword floors, scratching your walls, etc. If you agree to do it, make sure you get a good fee and that the production company insures you. Even ask for certain conditions (perhaps port a potty on site, parking not in your neighborhood, no food in your bedroom, etc.) While the company is required to return your home back to the original condition - the fee, even 5k, isn't always worth the aggravation and possible state your home could be left in. Plus your neighbors will hate you.

weight watchers has a recipe for something similar that I have made before with much success.
