Tasty Tuesday

Just a quick 1 today. I have a bit of a headache.

French toast grilled cheese

ingredients:
bread
cheese slices
egg (s)
butter or cooking spray

Just put together the sandwich like you usually do, 2 pieces of bread with cheese in the middle. Dip in egg & then add to the pan (add butter or cooking spray, to the pan). Just make it like French toast. When I 1st told my hubby about it, he thought it sounded horrible. But I made it for him & now he makes it too.

Mommy & Me Monday

Hosted by Krystyn at Really, Are You Serious?


Is it Monday already? The weekends go way too fast. Here are a few pics from the beach on Sat. The pic below we weren't ready for the pic.

This is a self portrait that we took.

Sand, sun & sangria

Yesterday was a chilly day on Hampton beach. We only sat on the sand for about an hr.

Maybe next year Anthony & T will go on this waterslide.

say cheese.

We ate at this cute place. They played Jimmy Buffet type music. The food was really good.

I got a yummy sangria.

Thought these barrels were really cute.

I love freebies

We spent the day in Hampton beach today. It was a bit chilly there, but we had lots of fun. We made sure that we were back in our area for the mall event. We skipped the movie tonight, but we got some freebies/coupons & I ran in the mall & got a Bare escentuals sample.

Before I went in the mall I had 1 of the make-up girls do my make up (just the powder over my face, she did around 3 or 4 layers of stuff). My face felt strange. She said it might feel tingley. I'm going to try out the sample & see how it feels. I also thought it looked a bit cakey.

This happened to me yesterday

I was @ the park with my daughter yesterday & a few Moms & kids from our playgroup. Tara made her way over to the swings, so I was pushing her. There was a teenage girl on my left swinging & a teenage girl on my right pushing a toddler on a swing. Tara was on the middle swing. This woman/girl looked @ me & asked "Are you 1 of the babysitters"? I didn't really get what she was saying at 1st, so I said "What"? Then I realized that the teenage girls were babysitting the kids that they were with. She repeated herself & I said "No, I'm just here with my daughter". She said "Oh, cause you look so young". I was caught off guard & didn't say anything else to her. I kind of wish I had told her I was 40. She was way younger than me & she shouldn't disrespect her elders like that. haha. Let me explain. I turned 40 in June. Ever since I turned 21 I've been cursed to look younger than I am. It's something that has always bothered me. I know it should be a complement, but I've always took it as an insult. For years I got carded. After a while it just gets to be a pain & I always got really embarassed. I don't get carded as much as I use to, but people still don't believe that I'm 40. I think I look at least 30, which is fine with me. I honestly don't think I look under 21. I have crows feet/lines around my eyes now. I was so excited when those lines appeared. I thought I would finally look somewhat older. Not so much. If I'm not smiling or squinting you can't see the lines, so what good are they. So now I'm using wrinkle cream to get rid of them. Even my hair needs to be dyed & the white hairs don't help me look at least 30. I've had white hairs since I was 21, but didn't start dying my hair till I was 30. Do any of you have this problem & do you get insulted or take it as a complement? I always thought someday I would like being told that I look younger. It hasn't happened yet.

Follow Friday 40 & Over

I haven't done a 40 & over Follow Friday in a while, so I thought I would do 1 today. Check out Java's blog for info.

That time of year already

Tomorrow my worst time of the year starts, football season. The Patriots play a game tomorrow night. That means we won't see Anthony till after the Superbowl, when the Patriots are playing. Even when they're not playing. For some reason when football is on he can't hear or think. Everyone knows I hate this time of year anyway. Fall, Halloween coming, Thanksgiving, Xmas. I just got the heeby geebies.

Yum of the day

I had a coupon for these, so I thought I would try a box. They're so good. They're my new nightly snack with a glass of milk. I already can't wait to have 1 tonight.
