I am in the process of coming up with a name for "Show me whatcha got"..maybe "Show me Sunday"..Anywho.. jump on over and see what ya think.. Nothing fancy just cleaned, organized and in spiffy new containers..

You have to check this out.... Erin over at Sutton Grace made an awesome kids kitchen for her daughter.. I can't explain just run over and check it out... I hope I can remember this idea when the grandkids come around in let's say 12-15 years.. Heck, I won't even be able to remember my name...

80's murder mystery party

A few years ago G and I hosted a murder mystery party. It was a lot of fun. It was around Halloween so we or I decorated the house as a haunted mansion. We had about 20 friends and family and their kids so the house was busting at the seams. We played and ate and actually for some reason no one drank which was weird but we were too busy playing detective.. We were approached last week about having another one and this was my thought..

What if some of you host the same or similar party on the same night and then we all blog about our fun.. Anyone interested? I was thinking this time about having something fun like an 80's party...so tubular.. We could dress in our fish net gloves and our Madonna earrings and like gag the blogging world with a spoon..

Let me know what ya think and I will be researching site and game options. Go to this site and check out a sample

Show me whatcha got sunday

This is my Mary Kay blush collection and one nasty looking dried out foundation.. I can use it for halloween..lol

When I was getting ready for work tonight I had some of my makeup out and thought I would get a pic.. I didn't have time to run downstairs to get "baby" so I grabbed my phone. I will get more pictures this weekend..

So go take pics of your makeup post them and leave me comment.. easy as pie

Show me whatcha got Sunday - Starts this Sunday, August 16th... Join in the fun..

Blog Fart Friday

I have National Geographic TV on and I look up to find a small little beached whale screaming for help... I know this is life.. but why would a cameraman care enough to go out there and find this whale and then choose to stand there and film it til it either dies or the tide comes in... Oh, this makes me mad.. Ya know when I'm out taking motocross pictures I take the pictures but the minute someone wrecks I throw my camera down and try to help.. I would not, could not and will not stand there and take pictures of someone hurt. Now if they have just dumped it then they are fair game for future proof of their crash talents. ~Cathy

Kids loved it

Corn Casserole
Usually I drain a can of corn throw in some milk, sugar, salt and pepper and wa la..corn for dinner. The other night I added a few extra things and it just didn't turn out like planned but it was good.. Then a Traci told me to add corn bread mix... OMG how stupid was I.. I kept thinking how can I make this thinker like a casserole.. So last night myself and little monster put our heads together and made our now famous, keep your hands back or they will be bitten off Corn Casserole.
We added frozen corn this time, butter and sour cream and sugar.. I use raw sugar..

Then we added milk or condensed milk but plain milk was fine.. and Jiffy Corn Bread mix....

Salt and Pepper and baked it til golden brown.. And don't ask me on what temp or how long cause I don't know..

I didn't even get a picture of the final product cause it was gone.. GONE.... Gone with a capital G....GONE!!!!

Next time I will have to make a double batch cause this was GOOOOOOdddddd!!! Try it and let me know.

My Sunday

Sunday night I did something I never do... I hung out in the man cave with G and I actually played Halo on Xbox live... I was begging for mercy from the other teams not to shoot me...I was a beginner. Then I grabbed the camera and took some pics.. Can anyone tell me why this is highlighted?

I think it's time for a pedicure. I was trying to get my reflection in the door but it didn't work. See the green shirt?

It's always better when someone else makes the drinks.

That was my Sunday night... I am tired and ready for bed. That Halo is intense....
