Panama City Beach Weeekend

I'm finally getting around to posting some pictures of all my weekends! Here are some of Bree and Brandi while we were at Panama City Beach 2 weeks ago. She is such a wonderful baby! Here she is in the little Key West shirt I got her, so cute :)



Brandi and I did manage to go out one night :)

We are so lucky that our moms hit it off so well! FRIENDS FOREVER! :)

Funny story, while Jim and I were in Auburn last month we were excited to get some chairs, well I brought them for mom and I for the beach and when I opened them they were children sized chairs, ha ha...We thought it was funny, maybe you had to be there to think the same.

DONE!

Last night was the opening night for the Festival of Tree’s. I had a blast this year and was lucky enough to have my mom decorate one with me. We both enjoyed it tremendously! I wanted to take the Pearly Peacock tree home with me but knew it was going to a good home. Both trees sold last night, which was VERY EXCITING for both of us. Mom’s tree “Grandma’s Traditions” was beautiful; she did such a great job.


When’s everyone decorating for Christmas? I’m decorating early this year…I’m having a big Thanksgiving dinner and would like the tree’s to be up by then. HAPPY DECORATING!!


Maybe these pictures will get you in the mood!

The Pearly Peacock

This week is the decorating for Festival of Tree’s! I took a picture of what I have done so far, sorry for the poor quality of photo, it was taken with my phone. Tomorrow is the last day to finish up, so tonight I will wrap fake presents (my LEAST favorite thing to do). I will take pictures and post them soon. For now, here is the sorry ass furry fuzzy photo : )

I havne't seen the baby bean since her first week, so I look forward to spending some good quality time with her. She's growing like a weed!

Mute Math Concert in Orlando Tonight


Tonight’s the night for the Mute Math concert over at the House of Blues. I know a lot of you are asking, “Who the hell are they?” Has anyone watched the movie Twilight? Their song Spotlight is in the movie. I also have pulled up a tiny paragraph about the band which is the paragraph below if you want to know more.

-Mute Math is a Grammy Award nominated American rock band from New Orleans that formed in 2003. Their music consists of many elements and has been described as everything from electro-alternative-rock to psychedelic-gospel to experimental-pop.-


I’m excited, because it’s been awhile since Ive been to a concert, and concerts are my thing, like football games are to my husband. I know it will be a blast.

NOW, I’m always having trouble with finding an outfit… I have created this outfit on Polyvore, I have a similar dress which is zebra print sequins, but only on the neckline and bottom. The rest is made of t-shirt material. This is where I need your help! Should I wear flats or heels? OR should I just wear jeans??? Only If I could go back 5 years when I lived with 2 girls! OH how I miss those days sometimes!

Worcestershire Sauce Secret Recipe Found in Trash


Interresting Article I found, and if you don't know me I LOVE Worcestershire SAUCE! OR as I call it, Wor-Chester Sauce :)

Article BY:


Sarah LeTrent (Posted Nov 3rd 2009)


A 170-year-old food secret was almost lost to the trash heap.The original recipe notes for Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce have been unearthed in a dumpster near the sauce factory by former company accountant, Brian Keogh. It was unclear why he was digging through the trash.The accountant passed away in 2006, but his discovery only recently came to light after his daughter Bonnie Clifford brought the notes to Worcester City Museums.The ingredient list originally read as vinegar, molasses, sugar, salt, anchovies, tamarind extract, onions and garlic. The secret ingredients -- until now unknown to the public -- were simply listed as "spices" and "flavorings." The recovered notes reveal that the secret ingredients include soy sauce, cloves, pickles, peppers and lemon. Before the discovery, no single person in the Lea & Perrins staff knew the entirety of the recipe. Much of it was written in code using terms such as "1 lb. of bulldog," David Nash of the Worcester City Museums told the Daily Mail. Despite the find, the notes still fail to disclose how to blend the sauce, as well as how much sauce the recipe makes.

butterfly-peacock-feather

It’s almost time to decorate! The Festival of Tree’s 2009 is next week! I begin decorating on Monday. I can’t believe how fast a year flies by. A year from today I was getting ready for my icicle tree, I was so nervous on doing my first tree for the museum and ended up having a wonderful time! So this year, I’m at it again! My tree will be called the Pearly Peacock, I’m doing it in all jeweled toned blues and greens with little pearls sprinkled through out. For now I’m leaving you with a few pictures for hints on what the tree will look like. I will take more in the days to come!


I have managed to find so many cute little peacock birds, can't wait to share the pictures of all of them...
