Are you there blog gods?...Its me Angela...

Since MTV so nicely commented on my last blog, and Nancy got free Rhodes Rolls for blogging about them, I have now decided that the blog is a very powerful thing. I am going to put this magic power to the test and see what happens...
For many years I have held a little seed of an idea in my head, dreaming of a day when it might come to fruition. I was hoping that those with power would think of it on their own, but they seem to be struggling so I thought I might send out my plea to the blog gods and see what happens. Why does the Starburst corporation, or Mars co., refuse to create a Starburst pack with only pinks in it? Honestly I only know of one person who likes the oranges and yellows, ahem Nancy, everyone else fights over the pinks and reds. If nothing else they should at least get rid of the yellows, honestly they taste like lemon pledge to me and thats not just because my taste buds are still wrecked (tragedy). I've gone so far as to actually just throw them out rather than eat them, and I know I'm not the only one who "randomly" finds the yellow next in line when someone asks for one from my pack. It hurts my heart to waste candy so that is a testament to how much I hate them.
The Starburst people have come close. One summer they had a mystery flavor instead of lemon (it was raspberry if you are wondering) and it was the best summer of my life. Much to my dismay, much like summer love, it ended too soon. The newest creation is the Fave Reds pack, which replaces the oranges and yellows with watermelon and fruit punch. This is close, but we all know that fruit punch is just one notch up from lemon.
So Starburst people and blog gods hear my plea! Make a starburst pack of only delicious pinks! Pinks, reds, and oranges if you must, but I beg of you leave out the yellows!
Sorry Nancy, it must be done...

A List of...

Things I am currently obsessed with:

1. baked potatoes-perhaps I am finally settling into my Idaho surroundings but not likely. More likely it is the sour cream that is catching my fancy.

2. popcorn made in our whirly pop-mmm delicious, I may never go back to microwave popcorn.

3. checking out books from our tiny local library/reading/goodreads-I find myself reading books as fast as possible because I want to put them on my goodreads lists. I have read 5 books since last thursday (yes I am in between semesters and I live in the most boring town in America, if you are wondering why I have copious amounts of time to read). Any good book suggestions are appreciated.

4. The Hills-who isn't obsessed really...

5. Taking the Stage-modern reality version of Fame on MTV

6. Staying up super late-I hate it, but I can't go to sleep early anymore.

7. Finding healthy recipes to make on the internet

8. Laying on the couch instead of actually making said healthy recipes

9. The sun! It is FINALLY starting to warm up a bit here, however it will probably snow tomorrow because I have now jinxed it.
