Time Out Monday - The Secret Life of Bees and a Treat


A few weeks ago I got to watch a movie. All! By! Myself! I didn't have to get a kid movie, which is a once in a blue moon experience for me. I chose The Secret Life of Bees. I have had book on my bedside table now for many moons and haven't had motivation to start it. The movie was great so now I am starting the book. The book is always better than the movie so if the movie is great, the book must be wonderful :) I'm not going to tell you about it - go to a movie review site for that.

And to go along with the movie.....In the mail I received a free Betty Crocker Warm Delights Mini treat. Nice mail day that day! It was small - perfect portion for someone (me) who tends to take huge portions. It was also like making something for my Easy Bake Oven when I was 8. Add water to the mix, microwave for 30 seconds, and the treat is done. Same type of thing but without waiting for that little light bulb to cook it. Ah, how we have evolved :)




Time Out Monday is a new weekly feature over at My Charmed Life and she'd love for you to participate. Go check it out!

  1. i've always wanted to try those warm delights. they look great! my new snack thing i found this weekend and LOVE is the Laughing Cow cheese wedges. only 35 calories and its the perfect size with a few crackers to tide you over to the next meal.

  2. That sounds great! It's been a good while since I watched a movie that *I* wanted to see, I'll have to find time for that soon. I was so skeptical of the Warm Delights, cake in 30 seconds? But they are quite good!
