Today I made French Toast with the help of Pepperridge Farm Cinnamon Swirl Bread. It is absolutely amazing! We are all addicted to this bread because it's so delicious! You can eat it plain or make French Toast like I did. If you love French Toast like we do, then you have to try this recipe. It's so much better then plain ol' bread and it's so simple to make. (I didn't measure anything but this is what I did) Ingredients ~The Star - Pepperidge Farm Cinnamon Bread. ~3 … [Read more...]

EA Sports Active 30-Day Challenge – Update
July 24, 2009 by 2 Comments
I FAILED!!!!!! That's right people, you read it right. I failed the 30 day challenge. I couldn't help it. I let everything in life come between exercising and getting into shape. It started with severe pain in my knees and then sharp pains in my back. I also couldn't do the lunges the right way and my "trainer" kept telling me that I was doing it wrong (I must be getting old :/). So I stopped. I couldn't continue exercising because I was in too much pain whenever I did the … [Read more...]
Free Hershey’s Chocolate Every Friday Through September!
July 23, 2009 by 2 Comments
Everyone loves chocolate, right? I know I do. I have to eat chocolate every week. I know it's fattening but it relaxes me. So when I do have the urge to eat chocolate, I always go for Hershey's. It's rich, creamy and there's nothing like it. I was super excited when I heard that Hershey's was GIVING away free chocolate. It was hard to believe so I had to get on it. So far, I've received 4 coupons for free chocolate. You must be asking why is Hershey's doing this? Well, Hershey's is … [Read more...]

Wordless Wednesday – Statued House
July 22, 2009 by 2 Comments
I was visiting my mom in the Bronx a few days ago and I came across this house near Pelham Parkway. I had to take a picture because I have never seen a house with so many statues. They practically take over the house. It's like you don't even look at the house because the statues are right there staring at you. I wanted to knock on the door and ask what was the purpose for all the statues but I couldn't; I didn't have the "balls" (excuse my french, lol). … [Read more...]
The Disappointment Continues.
July 21, 2009 by 7 Comments
It's just not fair to go through so many disappointments in one week. It's not but I guess that's inevitable. So, I finally saw Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince last night. It was OK. I liked it but...ok, I have to be honest here....I really didn't like it. I still feel the need to watch a Harry Potter movie. This one left me wanting more and I didn't get that, unfortunately. It's sad because my family and I are HUGE fans and the only one that really enjoyed it was my 12 year old … [Read more...]

Woo Hoo! Hells Kitchen: Season 6 Is Only A Day Away!
July 20, 2009 by 1 Comment
I don't care what anybody says, Chef Gordon Ramsey is one of the best chefs out there! I LOVE Chef Gordon Ramsey. He loves his kitchens to be spotless, his food to be perfect and his chefs to be the best! He's a tell-it-like-it-is kind-of person and I love that. Yes, he screams at the top of his lungs when he doesn't like a dish that you should be an expert on and yes, he makes people feel like crap... BUT, if you don't have to cook for him, he can be the sweetest guy you could ever … [Read more...]
