Read Me

While on vacation I read four books. The best by far was the The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. It took quite a while for the Lisbeth Salander character to be developed. Once she is your HOOKED! Prepare to be a little disturbed by some fairly violent scenes. If you make it through the story keeps you dying to know"Who done it?" I liked it so much I grabbed the sequel The Girl Who Played With Fire, I'm half way through and intrigued.

Adios

I got my hair done for vacation..What do you think? i think i look like a Garbage Pail Kid! What should my name be? Lock Jaw Lizzy? Be back soon with lots of pics!!!!!

Found It

OMG!!! Damon & I spent a delicious evening in Grandview. I found HEAVEN!! It's Jenni's Pistachio & Honey ice cream sandwhich...No words to describe the yumminess. Next time, Double chocolate Buttermint or Strawberry Buttermilk???

We also treated ourselves to new snorkeling gear at Underwater Connection.. FIVE DAYS to vacation.YAAHHHOOOOO!!

Sing to Me

In 2008 I took an amazing trip to Europe. As a surprise Damon bought me an ipod and itunes gift card. I never figured out how to load the ipod...Until yesterday!!! My first 3 downloads??

Shakin' Eddie Money

I think I'm in Love Eddie Money

Walk on Water Eddie Money

LOVE HIM!!!!

In February 2007, I went to Connecticut to see Eddie rock out. Can you tell I was excited??? Eddie was a little drunk , doing this weird spin and almost falling off the stage...It was awesome!!

Got Protein

Damon will tell you I have been on a SERIOUS egg kick lately. With all the working out (HEY 3 times/ week is better then zero, right?), going on around here I need protein. I'm not a big chicken or beef person so scrambled eggs have become a must have. Plus, they take like one minute to fix!!!! I found this recipe for scrambled egg toast with goat cheese at Smitten Kitchen and it makes my mouth water just thinking about it!!!

2 large eggs
2 tablespoons milk, half-and-half or cream
1/8 teaspoon salt
Few grinds black pepper
2 teaspoons butter or olive oil
A 1-inch thick piece of bread
1 tablespoon goat cheese
1 teaspoon chives or scallion greens, thinly sliced

2. Coconut Milk Ice Cream-Meijer Creamy and Delicious.Extremely coconutty!!!
3. Lip Gloss-Target Pretty color, not overly sticky, LOVE!

Bitter

Recently times have been a little rough. Actually the whole month of may was yucky. I try not to post the negative because A) Usually i would like to forget it B) I know my life is 89% amazing.

BUT I have to say yesterday was a BAD day... I posted my thoughts on facebook, sparing my beautiful blog and my friend Robin had the best comment.

Inspiring quote for the day (or yucky yesterday):

YESTERDAY CAN SUCK IT!!!!!

I feel better just saying it...

Electricity

We don't mind mind crazy storms and no electricity. We don't mind at all
