Y-ME

Did it last year, in the pouring rain with temperatures at like 35 degrees if I remember correctly. The good part was I raised over 1200 dollars!!! This year I made a team with some ladies from my spin classes so I'm the leader! Help me raise more than last year and help fight for a cure! Thanks..love to all! xoxo

40 days

I could use the movie as an example and give up you know what for 40 days but I don't think someone would be too keen on that idea (and neither would Mark..ahahahaha), plus I tried that many moons ago to only reach failure...Oh Jen. So my next thought was bam-alcohol, which I don't drink all that often and could easily do, but as of right now we have like 3 "activities" already on the calendar so I'd like to enjoy them with a few cold ones in hand. After much thought and consideration I've come up with:

1-NO COFFEE (OMG OMG OMFG)

2-NO JUNK FOOD (yes this includes chocolate and taste tasting my fabulous baking excursions)

There ya have it...the fun loving, energetic gal you once knew is gone or at least on hiatus till Spring.
..and to go against the trend of "giving up" stuff all the time I'm ADDING running to my agenda...at least twice a week...my 5K is coming up (more on that later)!

Enjoy and Happy Ash Wednesday....(pray for me)

Might I say..

I'm not gonna go on and on about the Oscars...it was nice to watch of course especially since we had seen 4 out of the 5 best pictured movie, and yes the girl in me loved the dresses, hair, makeup, etc. And Hugh, nice work. The length of course always an issue, but come on just think if you were in those winner's shoes-you'd want your moment too...my vote-3 stars. So yeah back to the girly moment. Angelina Jolie...eh I suppose I'm a fan...still liking Brad and Jen but whatcha gonna do. But ummm her earrings....




















uhh...familiar girls?!?













Do I ask for them back!? Do I let her keep them?! It was one of my favorite games as a kid and I'd hate to see Taylor's disappointment when I explain where they went,why they are missing and why my game is no longer complete!.....oh sigh. Bummer.

ME tube...

Recently cruising the tube-my recent find of Arrested Development was amazing and I still play it about 6 times a day so I thought it can only go up from there! Indeed it has....

Not my phone carrier but clever and fun to watch-who doesn't love a little break out and dance moment now and then??


And for you Tech nerds....

Arrested

Why this show went off the air I'll never know..but there is talk about a movie being made which in my opinion is the best idea EVER. This is super close to being my favorite TV show ever, I owe credit to where it is deserved (thanks Mark for introducing me to this epic creation). Arrested Development your ability to make me laugh till I cry is quite amazing, and I bow in your presence. If you've seen the show you'll love this link, if not I suggest you get on it (twss)...it should be a "must see" on your TO DO list. ENJOY-and laugh with me, not at me (for once)...

Cupcakes?!

Cupcakes, overrated? How is that possible? The only thing better than a cupcake is, of course more cupcakes!! And for a good reason-they are sweeping the nation!
...send flowers in the shape of a cupcake-


and for the traditional wedding cake?! out the window! its cupcakes!-

And it gets better- complete with "interior prongs" to hold the cupcake AND frosting securely in place-smart thinkers...

and for those who need more than one...maybe room for 12 or 24 to carry neatly?!? Well ok!
But ok I'm cupcaked out-for now at least..or until this weekend when I'll be baking the famous Sprinkles Cupcakes-which can come to a city near you if you vote!-
http://tinyurl.com/6gh6t7
But I owe this soon to be awesome cooking excursion to Mark's Dad and his Xmas gift (gosh does he know me or what!)..can't wait..dark chocolate frosting..ohh I can almost taste the yummy batter and rich frosting that I'll have to taste....and no worries Hung you're "Irish cupcakes" are coming soon..I'm feeling at a little BSG sign off party (yeah I might have to actually attend since we both know Mark won't be "hosting" anymore than handing you another beer), no red dress though, sorry.

But to think this is just a slice of the cupcake heaven just google "cupcake" and you'll see what I mean! Ohh the simple things in life....and to end with the Queen of everything for anything....go figure she'd have something cute...ohh Martha to be an ounce of your fanciness...sigh.

I thought the SAME THING!

thanks Sarah....

My how time flies...

This post is dedicated to a very special person in my life, in fact he actually pointed it out to me, I am still trying to grasp the concept of this....so I owe this unnecessary post to none other than Michael Fontaine De La Tour Dautrive De Beau Marchais Dufersne- So read on....this ones for you kid.
Ok so one of my many guilty pleasures is the Disney Channel, Disney movies, Disney music etc..and no not
like the princesses and Mickey and what not...more like-That's so Raven, Princess Diaries, and yes even the Jonas Brothers, after all the Disney Channel is where I do believe my obsession over Shia Labeouf came into play...

BEFORE
-



















and.....AFTER!!!!!!!!!!!!





















Holy heaven..thank god for Disney and now Transformers
.
Though I haven't seen any of the HSM's I plan to...so needless to say I have the TV viewing mentality of a 9 year old...don't hate.
Yes to continue my rambling......another "classic" Disney movie I rate high up on the "hey that wasn't bad, and I sat through it and could watch again" list...is Big Daddy..yes Adam Sandlar, Jon Stewart, and of course
Rob Schneider ( "hip? hip hop? hip hop onymous? hippopotamous?....")..but we can't forget Cole and Dylan Sprouse..What? Who!? Ahh yes you know...Julian aka Frankstein..you know the cute little boy...well they are identical twins who NOW play in a Disney Channel show called.. "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody"...the whole reason for this post! (NOT becuase I'm a creepy stalker who seeks out 12 year old boys) The fact that its the same kid(s) blows my mind (twss)! I still can't believe it....

BEFORE-






and AFTER.... :( ouch....



















guess some kids age better...they've still got time...so yeah..I am still very much in shock yet quite proud that I have now wasted about a minute of your life...yes go ahead UNsubscribe me from your Google reader or RSS feeds now..I would if I were you.

just in time

to honor this sickening "holiday" called Valentines day (yes dear let's go out to eat on like the busiest night where menus are filled with crappy 'make-fast' food, and everyones in a rush to seat as many customers as possible, or better yet buy me flowers at a discounted "save on shipping if ordering by 4pm today" price that will wilt away in days from the sorely packaged up mess they call a bouquet-oooo please oh please)-nice try be creative would ya if i really meant anything to you at all...anyways...i found these fun finds, which i don't need but thought you'd like to look at (twss)...
almost as good as diamonds..


give her (or him) all your heart-or just an inflatable one..personally i think the model looks more fun-whatev!


and of course you cant go wrong with fun t-shirts-


The Wizard of Oz T-Shirt in action-














Bad Chewie T-Shirt

Ok ok thats all for now and yes I do have some feelings/heart (believe it or not I'm a hopeless romantic and love showing it just dont need a day to prove it-plus I'm pretty sure he knows already)

ANYWAYS- Happy Valentine's Day and enjoy it with that one that makes your heart skip a beat or still gives you butterfiles...or just puts that warm feeling in your heart when you can just sit back and look at him and go ahhhh...he is groovy.

Just Read.

Good weekend..nothing too spectacular....we went out Friday night-kudos to me I made it out past midnight however heard the next day that I zonked out in the cab on the way home (AND I missed the late night ordering of Taylor Made-boo pepper and egg so sad I missed you so), all I remember is waking up at like 4:30 with my scarf and all my clothes still on...oh gosh wine treats me so well....Saturday I baked a bunch, banana chocolate chip bread, grapefruit yogurt cake, and banana muffins, then for dinner I made a Mexican lasagna that was pretty tasty if I don't say so myself, needless to say I passed out while we were watching "the Go-getter" at I believe right around 10. The good news is I got my full 12 hours of sleep....up and at em Sunday morning cooking breakfast (lots of bacon for the bacon-eater [literally]) me-just some banana bread. So Sunday was a full day of nothingness...though I did venture out to Jewel,took a bath-read a good four chapters in Alphabet Weekends, AND made a huge dent in my new love "goggle reader"...which is how I came across


It is so fantastic. Simply enter what you have in the fridge or on hand and BAM-instant recipes. I can't wait to use it...lucky for Mark there is endless possibilities when I enter BACON (oh yea!)he'll never me now! =P

As I continued on my interneting I came across this adorable website...I want it all....these instantly got put on my "i don't really need but think it would be OK to buy" list-


Early Bird Notecards









I love the inside of these...







TinPo Fashion Victims

No need WHAT SO EVER for them but these are cute and the title is fun!

Go enjoy more

And lastly, confirming I am a WIMP...for sure. Today as promised I started http://hundredpushups.com/index.html. So my initial test-the magic number is 6...WOW I just snuck into Rank #2...I was gonna do it again because I was so ashamed of the number or just flat on cheat and lie- but then I thought "well hey this is why I'm doing it-to improve" but DAAHAAAM. Wishing myself luck right now...100 push ups in 6 weeks. Miracles do happen. Peace out.
