Lil Roo (herein referred to as Chef Roo, lol) and I had a great New Year’s Eve.  Daddy was working, so it was just the two of us.  We ordered pizza (technically a pizza, oven roasted sandwich, and pasta bread bowl - and the smorgasbord was yum-o! lol!), watched Handy Manny’s Motorcycle Adventure, made banana bread, then watched Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure.  HAPPY NEW YEAR SWEET PEA!  We found our recipe for banana bread HERE. 

I evidently need a little practice recording & handling video, but this is a start for me and he’s cute even with my faulty video skills, lol.
