Hey Everyone Well.. Today got away from me in a hurry. I get in a flurry of emails and pitches and following up and next thing I know it is almost time for David to be home! I had a really awesome Sandwich for lunch. I bought some really over priced quality roast beef yesterday lol. I just can't do cheap meat after my little experience with that corned beef was expired. I am still not quite over it. I know beef is expensive but honestly usually the only lunch meat I can find is either turkey (I HATE turkey) or pork (which we all know I don't eat ) so.. I had to kick it up a notch! Anyways I had some left over scallions and I had a roast beef/mayo/scallion sandwich and it was darn good :) I found a recipe for pepper steak in the crockpot and I was going to make it but then I changed my mind because I only have one pack of steak meat left right now .. + I wasn't really sure David would eat it. I also needed it a bit more thawed so.. yeah. I am not really sure what I am going to … [Read more...]

Groupon Makes online shopping with Amazon (and others) a great deal! #sponsored
2 things I have came to love are online shopping and how to get the best deals when doing so! I of course always am about ways to save money and everything but when it comes to shopping online it can be a little bit more tedious to find valid promo codes and what not - unlike when you shop out in the real world and have coupons that you can get out of a newspaper or even online that you print at home! I know that in my experience by the time I find a code if I find a code for wherever it is that I am looking that a lot of time they are expired or invalid. There is no need to fret though, because GROUPON can help with that! One of my absolute favorite sites to shop on is probably one that is the most common and that is Amazon! Amazon has really became a favorite of mine for many reasons over the years - I love the 2 day shipping with prime and the amazing deals that I have found there on many items including my tanning lotions and potions and like up to 75% or so in savings … [Read more...]
Channeled my Kitchen Goddess= Copy Cat Lettuce Wraps & Soup with Pics!
Hey Everyone!! Well.. My weekend was pretty good believe it or not! It wasn't like OMG special or anything but I got a lot of random things done and even got a little creative in the kitchen so that was fun and different at the same time. I kinda channeled the inner 50's housewife /domestic goddess inside lol. Saturday I got up and immediately was in the I have got to accomplish something mode...so I started cleaning out the deep freezer. I really just wondered what was hiding in there I might not know about and really just wanted to straighten it up but I started in on it and David said why don't we just defrost it while you are at it so.. I hadn't planned on going all the way to the bottom but I did and cleaned out a considerable amount of things that were a little bit too old. I also hit up the freezer in the fridge but there wasn't too much there. Then we carried all the stuff down to the dumpster including sam's scratch post. He has had that thing for 7 years and … [Read more...]
Friday & a few rambles about my RPG/Fanfic Character (Kayla)
Hey Everyone Well.. I haven't got a whole heck of a lot done today but it is o.k. I didn't have so much that I planned to get done - plus there is a whole weekend to do stuff if I choose ha ha. We as always see how it goes. It is going to be more cacti outside so I will def. be in this house with the air blasting and perhaps cleaning out something/blogging/relaxing/drinking wine /watching tv or some combination of the above! If you wonder what I have been doing today- Mostly listening to music and singing my heart out :) I usually do that in the evening for a little while but haven't in a while so that was fun. I don't sing very well but it is a favorite past time of mine to listen/sing along with songs on spotify/cd/ipod /youtube :) I woke up this morning in the best mood- even though it was like 445 when I woke up! I had one of my dreams where I am the Character that I made up for my AW RPG that I still write the stories about every now and then (just for me) and I LOVE … [Read more...]
Cacti Days are here again!
Hey Everyone! Well Today was pretty hodge podge... we are in the middle of what I always call cacti days- which is when the weather app shows cacti beside the temps! We are supposed to be having this through the weekend so I am def. sitting in front of my fans and watching lots of tv and working on this and that! I have actually been holed up with my crappy laptop a lot more than usual lately because I am preferring to watch tv while sitting on the bed and working because it is easier this way. Otherwise I can only listen to the tv if I am on the big mac,and then I have to use our crappy computer stick too so.. yeah ha ha. I hope one day I can either make up a office in the guest room (david says I can get a roku tv, a marker board and a trash can and whatever else I want for in there) He doesn't really like it where I have it in the dining room for some reason- I think because he's just used to having the bar stools , the blanket box and the deep freezer. My computer desk is … [Read more...]
Holiday Gift Guide 2017: I had to share my Graphic!
I got distracted early this morning and wanted to create my Holiday Gift Guide image and get my in search of/contact form up (I am still working on that part!) but I wanted to share the image because I really like it and think it matches my new look so well :) I made it in photofy on the computer- I didn't know you could do photofy on the computer, I had been using the app and purchased the platinum pack with some of my google play credit that I get for doing surveys! I don't even think I realized there was a database of stock images there until yesterday but none the less.. voila! and stay tuned for the actual post at some point today or tomorrow hopefully! I started a regular post this morning early on but never quite got anywhere with it- I made this and have been working on some pitching and such - I just found out that my email from gmail must be hitting peoples spam folder pretty hard so I have been trying to go back and do some re pitching! No luck just quite yet - but it … [Read more...]
