lip smakers

I have a kinda crazy addiction to chap stick, lip gloss lips stuff. When I was in college I became a lip smackers freak. I loved the cotton candy kind the best. I also really like bath and body works that is peppermint with a tint of color. Not sure what the big obsession is, my friends always said cause I had big lips and they needed love.

Now with two girls I have realized they too love lip stuff. So maybe it is in their blood, or cause they too have big lips and they need love.

matty burgers

When we were home at xmas, my brother in-law Matt (who we were staying with) was eating breakfast. He had these frozen sausage biscuits that you just microwave for 50 sec, don't go by the directions on this... I am now an expert! Stella had one and it was over. She eats them on most mornings. "Momma, can I have Matty burgers?" So now the whole family calls them Matty Burgers. Uncle Matty is so proud. :).

They are small and are in the freezer section at the store. We have tried two kinds, Jimmy Dean and Tennessee pride. I like the Tennessee ones and Steve likes the Jimmy Dean ones. The girls love both kinds.

jelly bean me

We have been busy. Sorry to those 3 peeps that actually read my blog. I love you!

I never really liked Jelly Beans much, but now I love them. Kinda pick about them though. We like the jolly rancher, starburst and of course the jelly belly ones the best.

I have found great uses for these lil round things. Potty training... one for pee two for poop. They are also great for when your 18 month old is screaming and you have no clue how to resolve the issue, give them a jelly bean and all is right with the world. I have also found it helps with sharing. One for you and two for me... wait is that right momma?

Thank goodness it is easter time and we can store up for the rest of the year when they go on clearance.

wipe it up!

You ask how a person can get excited about paper towels? Well if you have a Steve, Stella and Irene you too would be excited. My fav's are Viva by Kleenex. They cost more than most, but I use less of them. They are very soft and never tear. Great for general cleaning and for messy people! I use them for napkins sometimes too.

yum

Sorry to all you loyal readers... LOL I don't think anyone reads this, but we have been busy and I have fallen off the wagon of being good to myself. SO here is a new post.

One of my Favorite quick meals to make is a cuban dish. In the frozen section at HEB or Kroger you can get these pork Tamales GOYA brand and they have plantations too. Super easy to do just warm and serve really. I also make a can of black beans and some white rice. So yummy.

Cubans eat the tamales with ketchup.

girl scout cookies are the devil

It is that time a year again. Those little girls with the evil cookies. How can they not be your favorite. I got the thin mints, peanut butter sandwiches and the samoa's. Oh my! so good. I have to hide them from my husband, but we have them after dinner. I don't even eat them until then. They have lasted longer this way. Stella loves the thin mints, not the samoa's I wanted the lemonaid ones... those are really good, but the girl was all out. Maybe the I will get some at the grocery store, where they wait to sell you their devil food!

Girl Scouts to Cav Scouts

Pannies

Okay this isn't really a favorite thing... maybe it is. You can judge for yourself. We are potty training. Stella picked out strawberry shortcake pannies and spiderman undies (boys). The boys undies are so much better. Why is it that guy's clothing is made so much better, even at this age? boys shirts, undies and pants are made to last, girls not so much. Maybe because we are flowers or because we are ladies? Whatever!

boys pannies rock!
