I’m not a Best Blog…

candycorntreslechescake2

So not only in the 14 paragraph email did I learn that I was horrible for not having a print button (which again for the record I do on the newer recipes) I also learned that I am not the best blog. Which is upsetting to me as pretty much anyone who asks what I do I tell them well I run the BEST BLOG don’t you know that? So clearly this was a blow to my ego. Thank goodness for Nyquil or I might not have been sleeping for the last few nights. The other thing I learned is that The Pioneer Woman is the best blog and one of those reasons is because of her print button. Martha Stewart has a nice print button as well but that they would not want to be friends with her because she was in prison. Let me just say Ree this woman is a follower of you for life, though I do fear she may have a shrine up of you somewhere made of print buttons. Let’s hope she looks nothing like you Ree or she might be trying to do a little Single White Female switching action on you. Run Ree. Run. Since she … [Read more...]

Copy That Ghost Rider…

GingeraleHam1

So amongst the nice well wishes this week I did get a scathing 14 paragraph (yes, 14) email about how ridiculous it is that I run my (FREE to YOU) blog and don’t have a print recipe button for all of my recipes. This is not a new complaint to me and when the site got redone I added a print recipe button. When I first started my blog 7 years ago that wasn’t an option. It’s added now and the newer recipes have it. I will when I have time (so possibly never :P ) go back and add it to the old recipes. In the time the person took to write the 14 paragraphs to me they could have Googled how to get the recipe off my site. You might have heard of it…it’s called Copy and Paste. If you haven’t heard of it…Google it and it will change your life. I promise. With sprinkles on top. But in all seriousness people…copy and paste. It will take you about 30 seconds…less if you are quicker…longer if you are my mother (love you mom). None the less it’s not THAT big of a pain. … [Read more...]

Oh Me So Corny…

Just last week I saw a bumper sticker that read “Fair: It’s where you get cotton candy at…not what life is”. Ah the irony. :) I first off want to say thanks to the large number of people who contacted me to say hope things come around. Thanks. They will. I’m sure of it. Some asked how they could help. Well number one keep reading the blog. :) Maybe comment. Maybe donate to buy ingredients though I will admit that what you donate this week might go to beer and/or vodka :P. Follow me on Pinterest or Facebook or Twitter, it makes me feel extra loved. The good news is of course is that I have many amazing things in my life that make it so meaningful. I don’t gush a lot about MDP on here but I should. His mom who recently moved back to town told me the other day that the more time she spends with me the more and more she realizes that I really am the most perfect fit for her son ever. That she is amazed by it. So that really made me happy to hear. And you’ve got to love … [Read more...]

Target Temptress…

I had heard a rumor about Oreo coming out with a Candy Corn version for the Fall. My friend said she thought she saw them at a local grocery store only to find out they were being only carried at Target. It’s always a risk going into Target. For the most part I am good. I go in and get what I am shopping for. It’s when I go with MDP that I get in trouble. He gets very shiny squirreled and then I do. The trip started off well. We had planned on just getting season two of The Big Bang Theory. As not only do I love it but so do MDP’s kids and we always get stuck watching the same episodes over and over again on TBS. MDP pointed out the Hello Kitty slippers and while OMG how cute I told him I already owned slippers and tried to quickly run away from them. That was where my will power got left apparently. :) As I bought all the seasons of Big Bang that they offer. Because I figured we are going to get though the season and then I will just have to risk coming back to Target. And … [Read more...]
