Hi All.... Susan and I of She's Becoming Doughmesstic decided to do a blog post swap for Super Bowl. If you want to see what I made head over to her site. Hello everyone! I’m thrilled to be here, guest posting for Miss Peabody, Queen of Sweet. Me? I’m Susan, and I have my own blog – She’s Becoming Doughmesstic. Over there you’ll find lots of sugary goodness, a few dinner worthy concoctions, breads, breakfasts…you name it. But like Peabody, I LOVE desserts, so you’ll find no lack of them there! When the two of us put this plan in motion, I had every intention of making you all something sweet. Cupcakes, brownies, cookies. But P probably has you covered there, so I opted to go a little savory, and present you with this incredible Sweet Potato Chili. After having survived a long and brutal winter, filled with lots of football and the foods that go along with it, I thought it was time to change the snacking line-up for this year’s Super Bowl. Sure, you need … [Read more...]
My little love muffin….
I was in a rare cleaning frenzy on Friday. Like dig stuff out from the back of the closet kind of cleaning. It resulted in my finding a few things. I purse I forgot I owned, always a fun find. Six dollars and seventeen cents US dollars and $5 Canadian dollars. A bag of gummy bears that were a little stale…but still edible (don’t judge). And a crumpled up wedding veil. Now I didn’t wear a wedding veil at my wedding. I actually wore it to bowl the night before. I didn’t have a rehearsal dinner, we went bowling instead…cheaper and more fun. Anyway the veil was just a cheapy one, the kind that if you had a bachelorette party of something along those lines you might buy. Anyway I was being goofy and put it on and decided I would put on a little Madonna’s like a Virgin and dance around. :) When the song was done I remembered to turn off the iPod but kept the veil on (it was a short one so it wasn’t really in the way). I got to cleaning and cleaning and the next thing you … [Read more...]
Spice, spice, baby….
Many of my friends are sad that Heidi Klum and Seal are divorcing and so very shocked as they seemed so happy (with the exception of my delusional guy friends who think they have a shot with Heidi now…hahahaha). A lot of people seem to be a lot of things. I firmly believe that people have three lives: a public life, a private life, and a secret life. People always tell me how open I am on here and what not, I can assure you that there are many a thing you don’t know, and well that’s okay. You don’t need to know everything about me. We don’t need to know everything about celebrities. I am not sure what happened along the way but it’s not our right to know what celebrities are doing at all times. I don’t care if they pump gas just like me. Or that they eat ice cream. They carry their own groceries. They aren’t like me. You know why? Because no one is following me around with a camera trying to take photos of me at the grocery store. Thank goodness too. If someone saw … [Read more...]
Snow dog…
The snow has all melted and I have a very sad and unhappy puppy. She’s more of a snow person than me…and that’s hard to do. As much as she normally hates to walk, she loves to walk in the snow. According to my pedometer we walked over 3 miles each day (which is a lot for a dog who never goes on walks) and just shy of 5 miles on the last day the snow was here. If we lived in snow country she would be the fittest dog…and I probably would be in much better shape as well. :) In case you are wondering she won’t go on walks now that the snow is gone. She’s a snot like that. Along with the snow went away the cold temperatures as well. And though 45F can’t be considered balmy, it’s not the kind of chill I go for. I like the kind of weather that once all cozy in bed you sit there a debate for a long period of time if it’s worth freezing your butt off to run to the bathroom. The kind that involves lots of layers and thick socks. The kind that invokes cooking stews or soups. … [Read more...]
