Move over Paula…

deep fried cinnamon roll

**Screw Zombies, I am afraid of a spider apocalypse. Last night while having a bit of insomnia I upgraded my toe nails to Domestic Goddess by OPI from the chipped whatever color that was on them. While calmly doing my nails just trying to avoid dog hair...dropped from the F&*$ing sky was a spider that landed in my wet nail polish on my big toe. I’m not sure why a blood curdling scream did not spew from my mouth. I think I was past screaming. I mean here was a tiny to most/huge to me black with now a touch of purple spider squirming on my freaking toenail. I hyperventilated while the dog watched me strangely flail around and freak out. With the world’s largest wad of toilet paper I removed the spider but spent the rest of the night on the lookout for the spider paratroopers. **If you want to hear me squeal then you should have been at the grocery store yesterday when my favorite bacon was on sale…and then there was a coupon on top of that. The freezer is FULL of bacon. … [Read more...]

Gut check…

One can talk a good talk but in all honesty my talk was put to the test on Super Bowl Sunday. While scrolling through my Facebook page on the way back from the party (no I was not driving) I noticed that my ex-husband had changed his profile picture as well as posted photos of him and a girl hiking. This was it. This was my gut check moment. The moment where you can say all you want oh gee I want them to find someone, but what is your real feeling? So what did I feel? Happiness. He looked happy. Genuine in the moment happy. And I was happy for him. She looked nice. I didn’t pick her to pieces like women like to do. I texted him and asked about her. When I found out she wasn’t with him in a romantic capacity I was disappointed as he seemed so happy in the photos. But then I kindly reminded myself that as long as he looked that happy I should just be thankful for that. I passed my gut check. I passed my real test so to speak…or what I thought was going to be my real test. It … [Read more...]

Monday, Monday…

Survived Super Bowl...I didn't even really watch the commercials. Except the David Beckham one not because of why you are thinking but because a room full of hockey playing guys were less than thrilled it was on. Vodka Gummy Bears are very dangerous. There are a lot of snacks that have dairy or peppers in them at a Super Bowl Party. I got flowers, I am loved.  :) Crazy Cocker Spaniel keeps getting dragged out on walks. She is the worst walker in the world. She walks in a zig zag and stops every 12 seconds to sniff something. And usually not a good something. I get to play hockey tonight. This is the third time I have made Key Lime Pie Cupcakes. Each time a little different. This time the no bake key lime pie filling is used in the buttercream frosting as well. To see the other two versions go here and here. Each version is good, but then again I love all things Key Lime.
