I received an email with a link to get the above coupon. $5 off $25 purchase Thursday and Friday (16th and 17th) only. Not the greatest coupon, but if you have to go anyway it could come in handy.

Enjoy!!

I think I am becoming a Foodie!

From Wikipedia:

Foodies are amateurs who simply love food for consumption, study, preparation, and news. Gourmets simply want to eat the best food, whereas foodies want to learn everything about food, both the best and the ordinary, and about the science, industry, and personalities surrounding food. For this reason, foodies are sometimes viewed as obsessively interested in all things culinary.

I started my blog to follow blogs about deals...and saving money. And I do follow those and love them! Thanks all!

But lately I have notice that a lot of the blogs I am finding and following are food related. I have found delicious sounding recipes and pictures that are almost food porn! Yes, I said it.....food porn.

Like thes:

Blueberry Crumb Cake at Amiyrah's....Yummy!

How to make jam at Debby's...I have been making jam for years, but still read every word with great interest!

Baked Ziti at Callista's...My family will love this!

Cinnamon Raisin Walnut Bread at Frieda's...How did I never think to add roasted walnuts to my raisin bread!

And that is just afew of them!! I want to make all the food on all the blogs I have found... seriously.

Of course, I still love all my bloggy buddies that I found before I started heading into this food blog addiction! Hopefully, some of you will find yummy recipes that you want to make as well!!

Do you think this is weird?

A friend sent me this video and I cannot decide if it is disturbing or entertaining. Please let me know what you think. Normally, I don't depend on other people to form my opinion, but I just don't know what to think about this.

Don't be jealous.

I have to brag that one night last week, I lived many a woman's fantasy! Don't worry, this is PG rated. LOL!

I got home from work and was beat...long, busy day. Hubby handed me a cold beverage...peach tea...and told me to take it easy. While dinner was finishing on the stove, I got to live that fantasy. Get ready for it.....my sexy hubby vacuumed, while wearing only his walking boots and boxer shorts. LOL! Okay, so the walking boots aren't sexy, but the boxer-clad vacuuming sure was! Hubby doesn't get it, but I know all the women will!

Have a great week all!

Someone is doing crack on Facebook!!

Yes, I am on Facebook. I registered and set it up to keep in touch with my kids. I am also on MySpace for the same reason. I thought MySpace was enough, but Samantha..our college student....wanted Hubby and me to both get on Facebook. So, we did.

It has been pretty cool, since some of my family in Tennessee is also on there, as well as some friends and we keep up with what each other is up to. A really cool thing is that I have gotten back in contact with people from high school and most especially, I have gotten together with my best friend from jr. high. We became "not friends" our Sophomore year in high school. But we are friends again and I am very happy about that!

Why do I say someone is doing crack? Because, last night I got a friend request from Hubby's EX-WIFE!! What is up with THAT?! We have 2 mutual friends.....2 of our kids. (Meredith is not on Facebook.) I don't know why Hubby's ex thinks I would want to be her friend, or her be mine. Well, besides the fact that she is a little Jeckyll/Hydish. Sometimes she is really nice to me and sometimes she is pure evil. Fortunately, since the kids are grown, we have almost no contact with each other. Thank God! I told Hubby about the request and he is equally baffled. (Hmmm... maybe she misses me!)

I am choosing to ignore the request, since there is no option to respond, "What the hell were you thinking?"

Hubby is on the mend!

Hubby is out of the wheelchair! He was officially given the go ahead to walk, so now his feet look like this:
(SonyaAnn, sorry you can't see his knees in this pic!) The wheelchair has been relegated to the spare room.

The doc said that Hubby's right foot is totally healed, but wants to keep him in the walking boot for a while to "build tension" where the incision was. The left foot is almost there and most of the staple have been removed. We are hoping it will be totally healed by the next visit to the doctor next week.

Hubby's first question when we went to the doc last week was, "When can I drive?" LOL! It has been killing him that he cannot get out and drive. Doc said Hubby can drive as long as he doesn't get somewhere and "walk all over the place."

So, Sunday, when we went across town to meet our son, daughter-in-law and grandson for lunch, I let Hubby drive. He was so HAPPY! Silly boy. (I will post pics from our visit in another post.)

But Hubby is still behaving, since he wants both feet to be totally healed and not to have a setback. So, there's the update. Thanks for all the well wishes!!
