Sylvester and Tweety

We have our own little cat-mouse duo on our deck. Watch the video!!! These 2 wrens made a next in our propane tank and have thier little babies in there. The birds land on our deck railing and like to "sing" very loudly. They pick bugs out of the planters. Our cat is much tormented I think. She can't catch them and so must just let them sing in her ear. It reminds of me of Sylvester and Tweety-bird. Ha! Ha!

So Good!


I read this book so fast I didn't even have time to post that I was reading it. I am so glad I finally decided to read this series. It was so captivating. I just wanted to find out what was happening next. I can't hardly wait to read the next one, New Moon. I am waiting to get the copy at the library.
So I would highly recommend this book.

Book Review


I finished The Lost Recipe for Happiness (some time ago actually). I pushed to get through it. I didn't feel the continuity in this book. I have just started reading romance novels and just didn't feel this one. I never drew me in. But I finished.

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY


Yesterday was Little Man's 1st birthday. I can't believe how this year has flown. I never thought it would go this fast.
Here's to you son. You've changed my life forever and I love you more than you will ever realize.

(this was not his cake, his looked much better)

What month is this?


It's June right? I'm not crazy.
It has seriously been raining, cloudy, foggy for 4, count them 1..2..3..4...DAYS now. The temperature has been on average 7 degrees colder than last year at this same time.
I am so tired of this. Can someone tell Mother Nature that it's June and supposed to be sunny and 70's? Thank you!

So Big!!

Little Man is so big.

Week 3

I've been slacking on the Cook Yourself Thin recipes. Sorry. I've been making them just not posting them. But I will recommend these.
Pasta Bake with Sausage, Broccoli and Beans
Deep Dark Chocolate Cake
Healthy Potato Skins
I want to try this:
Skinny Down-Home Chicken Pot Pie
Tonight we are having this:
Chicken Tetrazzini (I can't find the recipe. I don't think they've made it online.)

I'm addicted


I have been looking for used outdoor toys for Little Man. So I am now addicted to Craigslist. I am picking up some stuff today and tomorrow. NOT outdoor toys but other toys. I just can't pass up a good deal. Although I am driving 45 minutes to get the one thing (it's actually 3 toys sold together). I'll make a trip out of it and go by Once Upon a Child to see if they have any good stuff for him.
This is the one of three that I'm getting. Cool, right?

Hallelujah!!


Two weeks shy of Little Man's 1st Birthday and I can wear my pre-pregnancy capris. Yaahoo!!!
That's not me above.

I'm there!


I am finally at the point where I want to read Twilight by Stephanie Meyer. I thought ew, vampires at first but I've heard it's not focused on that and I am curious. I'll read the book before I see the movie. That way I can be really disappointed by the movie. Ha! The book is always better.

Testing

I am trying the video feature. Hope it works. This is Little Man a few weeks ago when he just started walking.

Seriously!



Not only is food getting more expensive with the rising cost of EVERYTHING! But they are now making the containers SMALLER! I realized last summer that Edy Ice Cream container was smaller. The new Trop 50 with 50% less sugar is only 59 oz instead of 64 oz and today the Kraft Mozzarella cheese is 7 oz! Are you kidding me? Will you charge me less? No. It's the same freakin' price as the other 8 oz bags of all their other varities. It will only be time when they are all reduced to 7 oz. I would think it would cost more to change all their processes but I suppose with all the computer automation now it's just a quick program retype and wa-la, new smaller sizes same crappy prices.
