What's your latest addiction?

Mine's pomegranate molasses drizzled over freshly sliced fruit.

11. Once you get beyond the training levels

it becomes odd - perhaps it's my keyboard, but holding the spacebar to jump higher just doesn't work. Also, you can't see where the next jump is as you're approaching, there is only an arrow, and it's easy to miss.

If you knock more than 3 rails down, you get a sign that says "press the space bar to jump higher" - right smack in the middle of the screen. I can't see my distance to the fences! x(

Not the best designed game. Nonetheless, it's still fun. :D

4. Regular trips to the library and trying new recipes are my two newest

addictions.
I've always loved to read, and to bake, and I've been trying to read a good variety of stuff this year, and to learn to make all kinds of new things, so those are good addictions!

It's a blast to spend time in the kitchen with my daughter or with my grandkids.

9. Those are great addictions!

I've always loved libraries, and am lucky that my city has a great one. A huge catalogue, and lots going on, from book clubs and discussion groups about current issues, to free movie screenings and workshops of every topic you can imagine.

You sound like a great grandma! :toast:

New recipes, huh? Would you like another grandkid, even if she is middle aged? :7

And we're reading Obama's "The Audacity of Hope" and Carter's "Palestine: Peace, Not Apartheid" and "The Middle East for Dummies" right now at our house.

Great books! I've got so many out that I can't name them all. I tend to flit from book to book, depending on my mood.
