Super Hero powers

Now that we've gotten a chance to get to know each other better, I thought I'd let you in on a little secret.  Come closer to the screen.
Closer.                   Closer.                           Closer.

Ok, too close, back up.  (I need my personal space.)

You alone?
Good.
Here's my secret:

I have amazing superhero powers.
Really.  Why are you rolling your eyes?  

Just for that, I won't let you know all my superhero powers. I'll just share one super power with you.

I am a SUPER COOKIE EATER!  It's true.  I can eat dozens of cookies in a single bite.

See these?

Bam.  Gone.

 Poor delicious, sweet, buttery, and slightly crumbly treats.  They didn't stand a chance against my mega mouth and super sharp cookie death chompers.

What are your super powers?  Come on... everyone's got at least one....

Congratsusagna

I recently heard some great news from two people.  One good friend recently was offered 2 jobs in California and a cousin just passed the final part of his ordination exam.  I was so happy I baked them a congratsusagna.

What, dear reader?  You've never heard of a congratsusagna?   Well, let me educate you.

Official Pink Stripey Socks definition:

Congratulations guys.  I'm so happy for you both.  :)

Thrifty professor

I love seeing my hubby dress up for work.  He's got a great eye for fashion and seamlessly mixes second-hand and new items.  Here are four of my favorite looks: 
 

(A) Stripes Galore

(B) Classy Nerd

(C) Preppy Quirk

(D) Autumn Ready

Can you tell which items are second-hand?
