Happy List that is LONG and Covers the Last Few Weeks.

I wish everyone could see me right now.  I am doing the happy dance while easily typing this post on my.......

NEW COMPUTER!!!!!  Yes, HP finally did the right thing and replaced my 2/3 month old computer that never worked right and finally wouldn't work.  After a HUGE, long ordeal with the company, which is a story in and of its self, they finally took my old piece of s*** and give me sometime that will work for a long time (fingers crossed) hopefully.

So now I have a lot of work to do on my blog since I can get it done in a timely fashion with this new computer - compared to the tiny, sloooooow notebook computer I had been borrowing from a friend.

I can't wait to start sharing recipes that I have been making and documenting with photos with all my followers, while I have been having computer issues. 

My Mom's Meat Spaghetti Sauce

 

Homemade Nachos



Happy to say that my Lindt Chocolate Giveaway is going better than expected (which ends today 02-19-11 at 11:59pm MST).  I have had more entries than I ever have on a Giveaway!

 

I have found a new candy love.  I don't know if that is good or bad (good because it tastes awesome, but bad for the waist line).  It is from Blair Candy.  They are now carrying a new way to create a huge candy assortment for a great price.  It is called the Custom Candybar Box.  I think it should be called "A little piece of heaven".  I ordered one of course and I am not disappointed!

 

My son's 7th Birthday Party was a hit!  Thank God for Pizza Hut as everything was thawing outside and a HUGE mess - couldn't imagine the children in our small house.

It's makes me smile looking at how much fun they all had.  It was a Good Mom Day that day.

 

After a Facebook comment to Aunt Nellies - "My boys and I are so disappointed and going through withdrawals..we can no longer find the sweet and sour red cabbage. I think I feel a blog entry coming on...would love to do a giveaway and a review."

I am excited to say they contacted me and are sending us some Sweet and Sour Red Cabbage to review on my blog.  My boys are very excited and ask daily if it has arrived in the mail yet.

 

And Last but not Least...Rubbermaid has selected me to test out a new pantry item before it is being sold in the stores.  Very excited and can't wait for it to arrive.

 

Okay enough typing - I think my new computer is smoking.....

Great Week

It has been a great week so far. Let me explain... 1st of all my hair continues to grow - everyday is getting me closer to donating to Locks of Love!!! Work has (I am scared to say this and jinx myself) leveled off. I actually have closed out two cases this week - Yah!

I continue to run, run, run - I have improved my 3.5 mile run by 4 minutes this week - my new shoes - have made a huge difference. My knees actually don't hurt - Thank you NIKE!! Work even allowed me to take my lunch at the end of my shift today - so I could get a wonderful and relaxing run in before picking up my boys. It is great when I get the opportunity to take a little me time - especially when the me time is productive but enjoyable.

And one of the best parts of the week and today is.... I was on twitter - like usual and one of my favorite companies - Blair Candy - CandyPam sent out a tweet -"Love candy, and have a website or blog? We'll send you a box, if you'd review us!" Of course I responded because one of my biggest down falls is I LOVE CANDY! I am an Candy-o-holic and proud of it. I don't think there is a day that goes by that I don't at least have one piece. They are going to contact me in the morning to work out the details. I am so excited! I can't wait to see what I find out.

I had better get some much needed sleep. I am planning on taking my boys for a beauty detour tommorrow after I pick them up from daycare - a lake near by - that I ran by today is full of baby ducks. They will love the experience and so will I. It is fantastic to experience life through my children and help to make them well rounded. If you want to learn more about beauty detours check out FishfulThinking.com - excellent site to learn about positive parenting.
