Whoa, it's been a long time since I've written!! I wrote a post awhile back but after posting it decided to make it private. I just have to be careful what I write since this is a public blog.  I never want to hurt anyone's feelings in any way so I always imagine that ANYONE could be reading this and then I am more careful with what I say.  Way back in the day, when I first started to blog on xanga, I had a protected blog and wrote about anything and everthing! When I wrote a protected post, only women could view it and only women that I chose.  That blog had way TMI!!! It is fun to go back and read, though! :)

I went to bed way too late last night because I am reading this book:
It really didn't sound like a book I'd be interested in but I got a sample on Kindle and am LOVING it!! I have already cried in it several times. It's the sweetest book about a teenager with autism.  I am on chapter 20 already and I just started reading it yesterday. I am sure I'll go to bed late again tonight because I'll be reading it.  One reason I don't read more than I do is because when I do, I can't put the book down and sometimes will stay up all night long reading an entire book. I made myself put my iPhone down (I read most of my books on my iPhone now with the Kindle app) at 2:30 am.

I am really wanting this camera! I LOVE it and really love the color! The black version is already out but the hot pink version doesn't come out for a couple of weeks so I'm waiting.  It's worth it to me to wait to have the great color! I take pictures every day so I don't want to look at a boring color.  I LOVE my Canon camera that I have now. It's not the top of the line...matter of fact, it's kind of cheap but it's been my favorite camera. This is what I have now:
I had the pink one first and loved it but then I dropped it and broke it so I went back to Best Buy and got the same camera in blue. I like my blue one but I loved my pink one. :) Anyway, I've reaserched the cameras and know for sure that I want the 230 hs. I played with the black one at Best Buy and loved it. There are 2 things that I have to have on my cameras or I will not buy them....fill flash and date stamp.  I always use a flash on my camera, even if it's outside. The pictures look SO much better! The flash fills in dark circles and brightens faces and if compared with a pix not using a fill flash, the pix with the flash is always better. Try it sometime. :)

I don't know if I have written on here or not about Mar losing 32 pounds but he sure has! I am so proud of him! He's got some discipline. I need some of his discipline right now.  I don't know what happened but after I got back from Colorado, I started stuffing my face 24/7. It was CRAZY and lasted about a month!! I don't know if it was the cortisone catching up with me, hormones (which were way out of whack) or what but I was a glutton!!!. I won't weigh but it's obvious I've gained weight because my clothes that were too big now fit. :s I'm trying not to freak out about it.  I'm no longer stuffing my face so that is good. :)  Anyway, since Mar started his healthy diet, I never cook anymore or bake! I miss it!! Mar and I used to cook together and now we don't.  He makes healthy soup and salmon on the grill that is great but all my yummy unhealthy recipes are no longer being made.  I really am missing my red velvet cake, brownies, and other yummy desserts. I haven't written on my recipe blog since December!!! Crazy!!!  It's probably a good thing, though, seeing as how I've been eating lately.  You know what my favorite food is right now? Raisin Bran Crunch! LOL! I like the Kroger brand.  Instead of stuffing my face with M&M's, I'm eating LOTS of Raisin Bran Crunch! I think I had fewer calories with the M&M's! :)

It is absolutely gorgeous outside!! I am going to go walk at 4:00. It's just too pretty to not be outside. I'm missing my walking partner this week.  She's got other plans this week.....
Katelind got MARRIED on Saturday and is on her honeymoon this week!! YAY!!!! I am so happy for her!! She was a gorgeous bride and just adorable to watch! I told Lamar it was like watching someone that was high on love! HA! :) The way she looked at Branson was just the cutest thing and the way he watched her was so fun to watch! I loved it!! GREAT wedding and super fun reception.  I hopefully will post about it but I know better to say that I will for sure because my track record isn't the best with blogging the last few years. 

Well, I'm going to get off of here and go get myself ready to walk in this gorgeousness! :) I LOVE this weather and want to take it all in!!! This morning it was 39 degrees and right now it's 68! :) Perfect!

Happy Day!

Fast and Easy Rolo Brownie Bites

Happy Happy Friday, y'all! Some of y'all might know that back in the day I had a baking blog. And, by back in the day, I mean I started it in 2009 and my last post was in 2011. I probably should update it and keep adding to it, but I just don't bake or cook as much anymore now that our nest is empty. But, I did have so much fun with that blog. I would just bake or cook as usual but along the way I would take pictures and blog about the recipes. I still go back to that site and get recipes. I send my kids and friends there when they are wanting a certain recipe, too. It's so easy to just send them a link. I'm all about fast and easy recipes! One of my favorite super easy "go to" recipes are these super yummy and easy brownie bites. I first blogged about these in 2009 here but thought I would add the yummy recipe to this blog, too.  Ingredients: Brownie Mix (I use the Duncan Hines 13x9 family size). Rolo's (they now have them unwrapped) WOOHO...

Dresser Redo

I've been so bad at blogging in the past few years. I blog so I can remember. I painted a set of chest of drawers a few years ago in our other house and I loved the result. The only problem is I didn't blog about it so I have no record of what I did to it. I have no idea what red paint color I used. I thought I had it written on FB but I have searched and searched and I can't find anywhere where I wrote the paint color so now I have this wonderful red chest of drawers and have no idea what the color is. I didn't want that to happen again so I am making sure that I write about the chest of drawers in our master bedroom that I recently painted.  Here is the piece of furniture before Sorry about me in my robe in the mirror. LOL! I really wanted to lighten this up so I decided I would paint it white. I LOVE white and thought it would be great SO I used this chalk paint that I got at Michael's. I had already used it on my coffee table and thought it would be f...

He is Risen INDEED!!!

Happy Easter!!! Ahhhh...I'm just SO SO thankful that Christ ROSE and we are free!!! WOOHOOOO!!! I alway love the Easter service at church at this was no exception. The worship is always my favorite and every year I wish I would have gone to both services. This year our church had the Arkansas Symphony up there with them and the music was just so beautiful! All the songs were such wonderful songs about Christ rising again. And there was a huge wooden cross on the stage that was so beautiful. I, of course, had to take a picture but the picture doesn't quite do it justice. It was just so beautiful.    Brandon preached the sermon and it was so good, too. After the sermon, we sung an old hymn that I love.....Because He Lives. Easter was even more special today because Kevin and Macy were with us. This was their one year dating anniversary and they have now been married 15 days! This weekend was their first time here since they have been married. We got to see them last weekend...
