Tuesday Tumblings

Hi deee hooooo my peeps!!!

Well so far so good this week so we're gonna attempt to get back on track on the blog and that means it's Tuesday and it's time to tumble!!

I found this little gnome pot hanger at the HobLob and now the Hubster has taken to moving him around the kitchen too.  

Then one day last week the cow showed up on my bathroom vanity protecting a very special surprise from the Hubster.  Guess where I'm gonna be on May 18th!!! 

And this is how I feel about that....

(p.s. If you haven't joined the Duck Dynasty bandwagon, you should!)

Hubster and Merebear made a little trip to Baton Rouge last week to visit the ole' LSU.  I didn't get to go because I had a doctors appointment that really didn't need to be missed.  So they brought me this  Apple Pie Moonshine.  

We've had a funny obsession with finding Apple Pie Moonshine since Mags brought it to "life" on Justified.   Just so you know, whew this stuff  beastly!!  We've joked that $20 can buy you a lot of fun or a lot of pain with this stuff!

I made some Fruity Pebble Granola Bars for their little road trip.

Hubster thought they were sweet like rice krispie treats and was quite disappointed to find oatmeal inside.  Duh....that's why I called them G R A N O L A bars!!   silly man

I received my goodie box from House Party.  It's FULL of L"Oreal and Redbook goodies.

Party is this week and we're gonna be just gorgeous at the end of the night.

This hungry thing is a mess, just a mess.  He's had some serious food allergies so this past week I've been making his own food.  Good gosh, the dog is eating better than we are!!   We are on our 4th different food trial today so crossing fingers this one works.

I made a pineapple UpsideDown Cake on Sunday.  I tell ya, this thing gave me fits!

I've never worked so hard on a cake in my life.  

These two guys turned 50 last week.  We had us a little get together to celebrate and Frankie loves Pineapple Upside Down Cake and Chuck requested Texas Ranch Cake so that's what they got.  Plus we had ice cream so it was a good day indeed!

At this very moment this is simmering on my stove.

Yep, we got us a big pot o' red beans working.  They cooked all night and Hubster said he woke up with his stomach growling.  

And this is my "baby" boy.  We went down to Waco to watch a little baseball on Saturday.

Hubster finally got his way and got a picture of us together with the Abogg in his uniform. 

I'm ever so glad he did!

This is one of the few times you will get a full body view of me.

I just cringe when I see myself in pictures but I know one day I'll be glad I have the photos.

Last topic today is weather....WTH???   Seriously it was 78 yesterday and tonight 30's!!!

My vegetables and my flowers are not going to thrive very well this year!

So what's up with everyone this week?  Did you all spend as much time glued to the TV last week as I did?  Just couldn't stop watching it all.  We're still in the throws of the West disaster around here so keep that little town in your prayers, it's gonna be a long road for those folks.  

Peace, Love & Iced Tea Jack!

Tuesday on Wednesday

Hey Peeps!!!

I've just been so bad with the blog this week but I have good excuses. Wanna hear them?  Good, I knew you would.

So Saturday the Abogg was supposed to have a double header at UNT but there was a mixup regarding the fields and they only played one. Good thing...I was sooooooo sunburned.
Of course this meant that Sunday was a double header.  I have to brag a bit, the boy was on FIRE!!!  Seriously he was a batting machine and a fielding pro.   Just one of those days where the baseball gods smile on you. Pictures?  Oh, you want pictures....yeah I forgot the camera again.  I did remember the sunscreen on Sunday!!  I am definitely going to take the camera this weekend for sure for sure!

Anywho, we had some kind of grilled meat for dinner and then the Abogg and I headed out for a late movie on Sat. night.

We saw The Place Beyond the Pines.   All I can say is you might need an antidepressant when you leave.  Crazy dark depressing movie.  However I'm sure I love Bradley Cooper more and more every day, Abogg feels the same about Ms. Mendes.  Oh and Ray Liotta is one creepy guy in this movie.

Good movie, just sad and depressing.  So let's lighten things up a bit since it's been such a downer of a week.

Last spring I planted a ton of bulbs and just waited to see what happened.  This poor plant was run over by the lawn mower like a zabillion times last year.  It's darn near a bush now, have no clue what it is either.  Hopefully it will bloom soon so we can solve the mystery.

Last Thursday we had pancakes and bacon for dinner.

Why we don't do that more often is beyond me.  

We moved a ton of Iris' to another section of the yard.  Apparently Iris' are like bunnies in the reproduction department.  We had our first bloom of the year.   Spring really is here!

Merebear and I are home alone this week.  Hubster is working out of town so we had Taco's last night.

Half the shells were broken, so we actually had tacos and taco salad.

I had one of my most favorites breakfast this morning.  Whole grain waffle with peanut butter, banana and honey.  <buuuurrrp>

And finally Mr. I Now Weigh 60 pounds has had an upset tummy and I figured out he is allergic to the food he's been eating.  In order to, ahem, "firm things up" around here I took him off dog food and have been feeding him a bland diet.  I'll get him back on food in another day or two so mostly I've been cooking for the dog.   If you need to know how to make oatmeal, instant rice, boiled chicken and eggs, dip pumpkin, yogurt or cottage cheese from the container I'm seriously your woman.

Leftovers tonight as Merebear is at the boyfriends and then her and the Hubster leave tomorrow afternoon for a college visit so I'll be having dinner alone until Saturday.   Don't expect any cooking.

I can eat cereal and popcorn for dinner any and every day of the week!!

Last comment of the day....this chick's voice.

Like nails on a chalkboard!!   

How's your week so far?  I know it's been a downer week but things will get better.

This guy and his mama said so and you know I believe them.

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood, be a helper. 

Peace, Love & Blessings
