We will never forget!

Today marks the anniversary of the September 11 attacks.  I'm dedicating this post/day to the victims that died, their families and the heroes that helped during that traumatic time. I consider myself very lucky because I didn't know anyone who perished on that day but I do know people that know other people that lost friends and family members.  They are in my prayers. I can't believe it's been seven years.  I still remember what I was doing that day.  About 8:50AM, 4 minutes after the … [Read more...]

What’s your Verbosity?

Created by OnePlusYou - (I found this on one of my "many" favorite blogs; thanks Mrs. Mecomber) WOW... 91% shorter than the average blogger.  I thought it would be 50%.  Oh well, I guess I'm not a blabber like some bloggers.  I like to get to the point and say it with minimal words.  Is that bad? … [Read more...]

Burn baby burn, burn…

Now that my blog has a new place on the web/Wordpress, my Feedburner has changed too.  So if you had a subscription to my blog before, you would need to update your email address again.  I'm sorry for the inconvenience but I guess things like this happen when the URL is changed, for some strange reason. My buddy Jai pointed out that my Feedburner wasn't working anymore so that is how I found out.  Thanks girl and thank goodness that is not the case now.  It is working just fine. So please … [Read more...]

Does your bed talk to you? ;)

I saw this on my buddy's blog and I thought it would fun to do that here too.  Here is what my bed says about me: What Your Bed Says About You Outward appearances are a concern of yours, but not your primary concern. You try to take care of yourself and your home, but it's not an obsession. You try to be an organized person, but you often fall behind. Certain parts of your life tend to fall into chaos. You are very high maintenance. You like everything a certain way, … [Read more...]

Rachael Ray Rocks!!

Remember this post?  Well, I ended up going to the Rachael Ray Show on Thursday.  I know there are many people that can't stand her and thinks she's annoying but I had such a great time as an audience member on her show.  Even though I had to wait on line for over an hour, it was totally worth it. I originally requested 4 tickets because I thought there would be people asking to go but that wasn't the case. I almost went alone until I told my 16 year old sister that I was going. I said I know … [Read more...]

Talk Shows

If you love Rachael Ray, than we have something in common.   I love all of her shows on the Food Network and I especially love her daytime show, The Rachael Ray Show.  So when I opened my emails yesterday, I was surprised to find out I was chosen to receive tickets to her show in NYC.  I couldn't believe it.  I was so excited.  So I replied back to them with my information and waited for the confirmation email which I received today.  The only thing I was not prepared for was that its for … [Read more...]
