a hairy situation

hey lovers and happy sunday!
so the game plan for today was to work from 8:30-2 however my sister asked if she could pick up my shift because she is in dire need of some dough due to the fact that she's moving to FLORIDA in July... but thats a whole 'nother story, so.. point being - i've got the day off...hello tanning and Eclipse!

my saturday was a lovely one.. i started off with a new [and improved?] breakfast..hmm, looks like the standard sammie thin, pb, and nana combo - right? oh.. so wrong. check down here for the details!



thank you for enduring all 7 minutes and 3 seconds of my jibber jabber :)

after recording the video i chowed down on some supper..kashi tuscan veggie bake meal, ak-mak crackers, cottage cheese and raisins, carrots...exposed...

i thought this meal was just okay.. it was a little soggy in my opinion (though i did use the microwave method.. which may have been the cause) not bad, but not my favorite..

after dinner i headed out to the party where i nibbled on a few bites of chocolate cake and roasted marshmallows for dessert.. then kicked some tush in volleyball.. until i realized that i was flashing everyone and their mother in my little sun dress .. thank god i opted for wearing my fav. pair of AE boy shorts last night :) TMI? nahhh

alright well I am off to enjoy this weather then later on tonight i'm getting together with a few amigos y amigas to watch the MTV movie awards which i probably wouldn't be watching if it wasn't for the insider NEW MOON footage!! so excited!

have a good day spider monkeys ;)!

i need a coooool rider

happy saturday babydolls :)
so after all of your feedback yesterday i realized i'm pretty much the only girl in blogworld that DIDN'T like "almost famous" i'm just banking on the fact that i was too tired to truly enjoy it ;)

so though at first i was super bummed about not working yesterday, my day didn't turn out to be a total bust. After loungin' around for far too long, reading a little Eclipse action, and enjoying some food, i decided to do a little ab workout:
i know i know, with my knee i probably shouldn't be doing workouts - but i knew these workouts wouldn't be straining on my leg.. so, i went for it.. and it hurt so good!

after my workout i received this AMAZINGNESS in the mail... 
a package from my sweet miracle, J (who i've talked about in previous posts)

she outdid herself again and spoiled me with some incredible goodies

more PB puffins (thank GOD just in the nick of time, the other box is literally almost gone already.. my bro found 'em too) enjoy life cranapple crunch granola, and natures path optimum banana almond cereal.. 

a beautiful journal

a pop culture crossword puzzle book.. she knows me far too well :)

an extremely sweet and heartfelt card, some of her favorite handwritten quotes, a precious little inspirational quote book "seize the moment", and one of her favorite books 

love it..

she also hooked me up with a ton of bars that i meant to take a picture of but my camera died :(

thank you so much again, J [ i know you're reading ;)!! ] you are such a blessing sweetheart, and i can't wait to get together so i can smother you with gifts! 

after going NUTS for my package.. i got dressed, went to Ginge's house because his cars in the shop so i'm now his personal chauffeur, drove his butt to work, and came home to read some more..

...and some more.

...and some more.

..and a little more...

then it was dinner time where i scafced down a cedarlane farm veggie and couscous wrap, food should taste good multigrain chips with some melter pepperjack, and some sweet corn

dinner was okay, but DESSERT was the star of this show..

curse this awful lighting! it definitely takes away from the *yum* factor of this dish.. but honestly, it was a partayyyy in my mouth


vanilla pudding, pb puffins, dark chocolate dreams, 2 chocolate meringues.. 

...um, i'm pretty sure i already know what i'm having for dessert tonight

i enjoyed this while watching Grease 2 ... i forgot how much i loved this movie, and how sexy this Mr. Michael Carrington is.. 

15711__grease2_l.jpg

such a fox.. and that accent? don't get me started.. 

i lovelovelove this movie - i used to watch it all the time as a child.. but now that i'm older it's so fun to watch and understand all the sexual inuendos. I can't decide if i like Grease 1 or Grease 2 better.. have ya'll seen both of 'em? which one do you like better?

i had to cut the movie short because my soulmate alerted me to a Jon and Kate special on E! so you know i had to hit that up. 

I passed out RIGHT after it was over.. at 11:00 on the nose (just call me grandma Jenny) and treated myself to a solid 10 hours of sleep.. amazing :)

as for today I have work from 1:30-6 then i'm off to one of my best guy friend's sister's college grad party.. I can't wait, I haven't seen the older kids that I went to HS with in FOREVER so it'll be great.. I love grad parties, bbqs, volleyball, and the occasional duck duck splash when we're feeling super immature.. can't beat it! 

have a wonderful saturday gorgeous girls! ciao!

FML thursday

hey ladies, how are you on this dreary friday?! so dreary in fact that i got called out of work.. LAME.. i need my moolah!

first of all - i wanted to thank you all for your endless support and sweet words regarding my difficulty coping with that comment and decrease my foodie pics a tad... but please know i am definitely going to share some goodies :) just not every meal i eat if you've seen it before - that can get borrrrrring, no? but again - thank you x's 4830 million for all of your positive feedback and encouragement to do what's best for me. You girls are seriously the best !

second of all - yeseterday was literally a day from h.e.double hockey sticks. As you know, I had my doctors appointment to find out the results about my MRI. The appointment was scheduled for 8:30 so mommabear and myself arrived at about 8:32 (fashionably late of course) and didn't get in to the actual office until 10 freakin' 10! Then once we finally got in to the doctors office the doc himself didn't come in for another 10 minutes.. so i ended up waiting, letting anticipation build up, for a grand total of 2 hours... FML #1

after the doc came in (who my mom totally has a crush on.. can't blame her, he's kinda sexy) he told me the results of my MRI which basically said there was a "suspicion of a possible tear"... in other words, they still don't know what the heck is going on. FML#2

the doc then decided to drain my leg for shits and giggles.. which honestly girls, HOLY COW.. it KILLED haha -- maybe i'm just being a whimp but ah that big thick needle stuck in my leg and feeling all the fluid come out and... TMI? my bad. anyhoo - he said that the liquid looked *cloudy* which made him think i may have lime disease... oh but how will we know for sure? go to the hospital and get blood taken of course. FML #3

So... mommacita and myself ventured down to the hospital to hand deliver my knee juice (which i really wanted to take a picture and show you girls...but i forgot, your welcome) then proceeded to wait in the doctors office for 45 minutes to get blood taken - which i HATE so i was definitely getting super anxious... FML #5

fortunately, i did have some gorgeous blogettes to get me through my stressful waiting period (love you chicas!) then i FINALLY got called in.. and low and behold, the nurse couldn't find my vein. FML #6

after looking for about 10 minutes she said she may have to take the blood from my WRIST.. um, no bitch you're finding a vein in my elbow.. my WRIST?! imagine!? i honestly begged her to keep looking and try one more time in my elbow and fortunately - she did find one.. alleluia!

blahhhhhhhhh so after that long long morning i finally was able to come home, eat some lunch, then i headed over to my best girlfriends house to be lazy and watch Daddy's Little Girls ( i am obsessed with that show, for the record) then i came home, ate a snackie, ventured to Ginge's and hung out until HE made the decision to go to PANERA BREAD for dinner.. ah, i have taught him well. I am in love/want to marry panera - especially the mediterranean veggie sandwich and black bean soup - which is exactly what i got... gotta love that you pick two dealio!

after dinner we headed back to his house to babysit his little brojahhh and watched almost famous which was almost good.. except, not at all - i really didn't like it. Kate Hudson was in it, which was it's only redeeming quality - but otherwise it was not for me. Have any of you girls ever seen this? thoughts?

OH so i almost forgot.. my saving grace to get me through yesterday was the lovely blogger, Shelbs, who hooked me up BIG TIME with some PB puffins that i was so deprived of. AH thank you so much beautiful girl - after trying them i am officialy hooked and going to have to spend each and every pay check ordering them offline by the truck load. I also made the epic mistake of telling my dad to try them and now he's addicted himself so the box is going a little faster than i'd like... blasphemy!

alright well i have got to beat it, Mario Lopez is on the Tyra Banks show and I definitely need to focus my full attention on that... MarioLopezA02.jpg Mario Lopez image by StockholmByMorning
...you understand. Oh AC Slayter, you make me swoon

happy friday lovies!

drama queen alert!

Save the drama for yo’ mama

Hey girls – I hate to be a Debbie downer over here but there's just something I quickly need to address. On my post earlier today I received a comment along the lines of
“wow girl you eat so much, where does it all go!??”
now – of course I know that this girl did not intend for this comment to be negative or mean in any way.. but it really struck a nerve with me. Yes, I’m on a weight gainers meal plan and I NEED to eat a lot – its just a little uncomfortable for me hearing that others think I eat "so much" For this reason, I’ve made the executive decision to not post so much of my eats. If I eat something exciting, I will share it with ya’ll – otherwise I’ve decided to stop treating this blog as a food diary and will not my documenting my regular eats any more. I’ve realized that my meal plan and food intake is customized for me and my needs - and I’m content and comfortable with that.. however, its when others judge my intake and the amount of food that I’m eating that becomes uncomfortable for me. I’m sorry to be such a drama queen and to the reader who made this comment PLEASE KNOW that I know you did NOT leave this comment in order to offend me – you are a sweetheart and I cherish your friendship. As someone who has struggled with unhealthy eating behaviors I have just grown to be extremely sensitive of others remarks on my food.

Blah – alright.. that’s enough of THAT... i have to go *get ready* for girls night.. aka slip into my pj's and take all my make up off :)..but before i go i'll end this post on a light note..
http://www.foodgoat.com/040817grapes.jpg

buahah... have a good night loves!


meet george jetson..

happy hump day chicas :) half way there half way there.. woo!
i wanted to thank ya'll for your good luck witshes regarding my MRI..apparently I was completely naive as to what the whole MRI process entailed.. I thought it was just like a quick x-ray but little did I know I would be spending half an hour in a freakin’ teleport machine straight out of the Jetsons!
http://msxb-d3.vo.llnw.net/legacycontent/scimages/Season%202%20-%20The%20Jetsons.jpg
After the nurse dropped the bomb on be that I would be in the vessel for 30 minutes she told me I would “have to remain very still” you know all bets were off at that point for antsy Nancy over here. Fortunately, she did hook me up with some sweet tunes to mellow me out.. I vote they hook up some tanning bulbs in that machine – might as well kill two birds with one stone ..anyone with me??

Anyhoo, after that extravaganza I was very eager to get out and go grocery shopping! Woo woo! Just bought the essentials.. vitas, greek yogurt, bagels.. etc. etc.

After shopping I met up with some of my girlfriends who were treating themselves to ice cream sundaes at Friendly’s and I may or may not have stolen a bite of my best friend, Michaelas, watermelon sherbert and about all of my friend Stacy’s whipped cream ( I love that stuff! ) after gossiping and mooching off my friends food I went home and chowed down on a proper snack
  • Cinnamon raisin swirl and teddi’s PB on a whole wheat potato roll
  • Pineapple slices
  • Rice pudding with apples and vanilla bean almonds

So glad mom bought the 200 pack of memorial day plates when you only celebrate it once per year.. It looks like we’re gonna be the most patriotic family on the block till Christmas time

The boyf came overrrr a few minutes after I started eating my snack and was eyeing my eats – so I made him one of the potato rolls and slathered it with the LAST of my mighty maple (if that’s not love, I don’t know what is) Ginge gives it two thumbs way up! Wooo … could anyone honestly NOT like mighty maple, seriously.

After watching a few minutes..err, hours, of True Life on MTV we decided to be semi-productive, played a little rock band, then went out to get him some dinner because his tummy was growlin’. We picked up some Mickey D’s for him then he brought it home, I whipped up a quick chicken cutlet, sliced it up over spinach with veggies and added some Annie’s Goddess dressing and we called it a date. I felt bad because his food got super cold while he waited for my dinner to be ready – but he honestly could have cared less… I love that! I have such a difficult time sometimes when my food doesn’t taste “great” like – if I’m not enjoying my food 48390%.. why eat it? I have to start reminding myself, just like everything in life nothing is always perfect.. sometimes my foods gotta flat out suck – but, you eat it.. deal with it…and look forward to the next better meal :)

Anyhoo, on to today.. I don’t have too much planned for this afternoon. Probably venturing out to TJmaxx, though I know I shouldn’t, then I have the nutritionist later on today. Tonight I am looking forward to some girl’s night action.. nothing better than watching chick flicks and vegging out in your pj’s with you girlfriends :)

p.s. i keep forgetting to post this! but the beautiful and sweet Emily, Anna, Heather, generously gave me this very special award!


ahh i love this! SO perfect :) I don't think you can sum up a great friendship more accurately.. and since you all are dearly close to my heart and spoil me with endless support, I really can't choose just a few of you to award this to.. so please, consider yourself all tagged - i cherish each and every one of your friendships and am so blessed to have you all in my life :)

p.s. hit up anappleaday's site for her last giveaway of May! It's a good one- i promise! :)

Have a wonderful hump day sweethearts!

i wear my sunglasses at night 'cause the sun never sets on a badass ;)

Whats up ladies?! Hope ya'll had a wonderful memorial day! Mine was a good one for sure - I saw tons of friends from high school, family, and managed to play (and freakin' dominate) some little kiddies in horse shoes.. I'd say yesterday was a great success. After scurrying down town like the little social butterflies we are, Seanski and I settled down at my house for dinner where I wolfed down a delicious bruschetta tomato basil paremsan boca burger with a slice of provolone and turkey bacon on a whole wheat potato roll... perfect :)

after dinner Sean offered/I forced him to watch the bachelorette and Jon and Kate + 8.. wowza, talk about a tear jerker.. those little precious kiddies are too adorable but the whole controversy is literally heart breaking. Fortunately, the bachelorettte certainly perked me up a little bit .. Jake is a freakin' DREAM BOAT

Right now I am off to my MRI appointment - so i'm excitd to get that over with so I can finally know what the dealio is.. then it's off to grocery shop with mommabear and hit up my brothers Tennis Championships!! woowoo.. wish him luck!

Before I go I have a little fashion tip of the week to share. So I have always wondered why my sister looks awesome in aviators and I look like a straight up bug. The only glasses I seem to be able to rock on the huge Paris Hilton shades that cover half my face.. but though a little online investigating i've found that the rest for this is that I have a a *Oval* shaped face.. which means:
Oval face
An oval face is a balanced face. The chin will be slightly more narrow than the forehead and those with an oval face will normally also have high cheekbones. Choose sunglasses that are as wide as the largest part of your face to maintain balance and avoid styles that may form heavily v or angular shapes. The best sunglasses for an oval face are likely to have a more square shape to them. Remember it is all about balance so choose frames that are in proportion to the rest of your face
here are some tips for other face shapes:
Round face
A round face is full with very few angles and often the width is equal to the length. If you have a round face the best sunglasses to suit you will be those which have thicker frames and are wide around the temples. This will mean that the sunglasses will elongate the face and not bring so much emphasis to the roundness. Deep colours will also minimise fullness so try chocolatey browns or the warm reds and pinks in this summer’s eye wear collections.


Square face
A square face will have a wide chin and a wide or broad forehead. Oval frames will create curve to the face whilst elongating. Avoid square or rectangular frames which will only focus more on the angles of your face and may make your head seem shorter in proportions.

Heart-shaped face
A heart shaped face typically has a wider forehead, high check bones which then taper down to a smaller chin. Angular or aviator shaped frames will balance a smaller chin whilst rimless style sunglasses seem to naturally suit this shape of face. It’s best to avoid darker colours which may ‘cut up’ the line of the face, instead opt for lighter colours like smokey browns and greys.


I got this info from this website:

i was also super surprised to find that your hair has an effect on the type of sunglasses that best suits you...

Soft & curly
Enhanced by delicate shapes, rimless frames and translucent colours

Very curly
Choose a frame that follows your hairline. Classic small frames are advisable

Short
Geometric frames, or rounder frames look best

Very short
Bold colours and designs, as well as decorative styles

Long hair
Try the frames with both your hair up and down, as the change in style may alter the look of the frames
very interesting!

this was very helpful to me because now I definitely know what shape and size of shades to look for when i'm shopping rather than just spending 5849384903 hours (give or take a few) trying different pairs on and looking like a goofball in 90% of 'em! Hope this helped you girls somewhat!

alright I am out of here loves, have a great day!

oh, say can you see..by the dawns early light

Good morning and happy memorial day ladies! I actually just got home from the memorial day parade in town which is always fun.. nothing beats spending 2 hours looking for parking then being sandwiched in between two your boyfriend and you dad (awkward) and listening to little kids whining that their parents won't let them get snow cones or friend dough at 8 oclock in the morning. Seriously though, i really do love it .. memories memories :) Aside from all that goodness, the speeches from the veterans are always extremely over-whelming and i love the unifying pride and admiration that everyone there feels for them. This is an extremely special holiday and I feel fortunate to be able to take part in honoring the brave men and women who have risked their lives for us.
http://www.hyscience.com/MemorialDay.jpg

back to Sunday...

so first of all.. i was super surprised [ and slightly amused :) ] at all the creepster stories ya'll had! so funny.. I honestly just do not know what goes through some guys minds! Yesterday was no exception - the geezers were flirting in full force but hey, theyre paying for my groceries so whatever I gotta do, right ;)

I don't know how i did it but before work I actually managed to conjure up a pretty legit breakfast:I am crazy about these rolls. I was always a huge fan of yellow potato bread as a youngin' (as i know my love Amy was ) so i was happy (and by happy i mean ECSTATIC) to find whole wheat potato bread products. I've tried Martin's WW potato bread and really liked it .. but the rolls are just incredble. So soft and doughy with a subtle sweetness... wonderful, just wonderful.

so after such a killer breakfast I was off and ready to go to work. About midway through my shift i was ravenous and was about the chew my arm off...but then I realized I like my arm.. so i munched on this guy instead
nature path envirokidz chocolate crispy rice bar
oh
em
geeeeee
I want to eat this bar every day for the rest of my life. Honestly, I can't believe how chocolately it was. Dare I say, I liked it better than the peaut butter flavor?? This was divine and tasted just like my old favorite cocoa krispies. There's also only about 110 calories and 7g of sugar. Though there's not much protein or fiber - i wouldn't eat this as a nutrtional bar.. just an extremely delicious way to satisfy my hunger. GO BUY THESE NOW!

after worked I visited the boyf at work but only for a couple minutes because a.) i was hungry for din din and b.) homeboy had just shoveled down half a buffalo chicken pizza [ he's got good taste, right kathski?! ;) ] and call me crazy but i just wasn't feelin' the buffalo and ranch scented kisses - and since i didn't have any breath mints on me.. i jetted outta there... you understand :)

I whipped up a quick dinner with a little hint of one my main girls, K-baby!baked chicken cutlet with a toasted whole wheat sammie thin topped with cottage cheese and rasins (love this Kski!) and a side of beautifully green peas

dessert was just a chocolate cupcake with banana cream frosting.. no big ;)alright alight.. so i lied - it's really a chocolate vitamuffin with smooshed banana topped with a mini chocolate meringue but dang mustang.. this was GOOD.
i also devoured a mini so delicious neopolitan ice cream sammie

one more thing..
Ive decided to had [ yet another ] feature to my blog called ...
*Peanut butter and Jams*
http://img.timeinc.net/recipes/i/recipes/sl/03142008/double-jam-sl-1611758-l.jpg
...not that kind of jam!

this kind..
http://www.ace-clipart.com/clipart/music_clipart/BOOMBOX01.gif
in my left sidebar i'll feature an artist or song that I am just lovin' this week :)

this week it's Dave Matthews Band
Download: Funny the Way it is

alright alright enough jibber jabber from me! I am off to relax and ice my knee for now then later on i have a buttload of bbq's to hit up with Sean then our friend's son's birthday party a little later.. then it's back home for some grillin' action with the family :) Hope you girls have a wonderful and safe memorial day!

Enjoy girlies =)

alright well i am off to go hustle... i mean, work ;) have a great Sunday! xoxo

pretty woman [limping] down the street..

Hey girlies! how are you??? Hope ya'll got a great start to your memorial day weekend!

Friday ended up being a huge bust for me. I woke up.. blogged [duh] did yoga [ blahh, jus kidding.. i wish] and ate a goold ol' fashion cold cereal breakfast...kashi strawberry fields, full circle organic crispy rice cereal drowning in some vanilla soymilk with orange slices on the side

i adore that crispy rice cereal.. and i may or may not be considering attempting to whip up some rice krispie treats with 'em.. we shall see!

so after breakfast i prepped myself out and got ready for work but about 5 minutes before I was ready to leave my boss called me and said she couldn't get ahold of the girl she called to cover my shift and she'd be there any minute so I could just stay home and take a load of. Normally, this would be good - but i was freakin' BORED and wanted to work. The upside was that I did get to enjoy this food porn rather than the lame lunch i has originally packed myself..
joseph's whole wheat wrap with turkey, pepperjack cheese, honey wheat preztels, and two MIA prunes.
i also sipped on another honest tea.. green dragon with passion fruit - much better than the black tea!

after lunch I was starting to feel as though my eyes were gonna fall out of their sockets from the outrageous number of hours i spent cross word puzzling and watching trash TV so i went to my mom, pleaded temporary insanity, and begged she let me go to Sean's house. Fortunately she said yes cause she knew Ginge would take care of his girl..

not much happened there - just chatted, lounged around, watched ESPN ( i clearly have lost all control of our television/movie viewing) until he had his softball game in town. I really wanted to go but tummy tum was growlin' and he said itd be best for me to go home and rest up anyways.. so, off i went.. back to the cave where I enjoyed this yumtastic snack.
rice pudding, smooshed banana, raisins, and almonds.. divine combo.

the game plan was for Sean and I to go to one of our friends' house for a bonfire.. but he said he really didn't want me going because the kid's house was on top of a monster hill and chances are we'd be standing the whole time and he really didn't want me straining my leg. I know he was trying to watch out for me - and i appreciate that.. it's just frustrating cause i want to GO OUT! i feel like an old married couple - except just by myself.. he offered to stay in with me but he'd done that the past few nights and i didn't want anyone calling my boy WHIPPED . so i told him to go out and i would entertain myself.. which i did with a lovely vitamuffin & so delicious ice cream sammie combo while watching Pretty Woman.. Um, since when is Richard Gere such a FOX?!?! and J. Roberts - don't get me started.. GORGEOUS!

Anyhoo, I am definitely ready to get this whole knee sitch taken care of - tuesday can not come soon enough! I am excited to work today though - gonna play the whole pity "i have a freakin' torn cartilage but im still working and getting you rich men beers" card to hopefully make some more dolla dolla bills ;) don't hate..

Wish me luck, loves.. i am praying I dont eff this puppy up more than i already have :(
...Enjoy your Saturday!

myspace default.. holla!

Good morning, sweetpeas :) I am honestly feeling spoiled over here with this perfect weather.. another beautiful one up in ol' CT.. i dig it!

first thing first I fogot to show ya'll my killer breakfast from yesterday.. mini whole wheat bagel x's 2, cagefree egg, slice of pepperjack, earth balance, turkey bacon, and orange slices.. ah i want more right now.

my afternoon snack was extra delicious because it was filled with love :)
love from my babydoll Lyss, that is.. pineapple, prunes, applesauce, and the INCREDIBLE pb&j nut mix from her package.. thank you again, girl - i'm officially addicted to these puppies

after bummin' around for the day i went out with Seanster to this little mexican restaurant in town. I ordered veggie fajiti on whole wheat tortillas and nibbled on some corn chips - it was delish and so nice to have someone else cook for me!

Fast forward to today.. I decided I'm going to work becasue if i did tear my cartilage and have to get surgery I'll be out of commission for a little while and I don't want to leave my boss hanging so much so today i'm gonna have to grow a pair and tough it out.

before I leave you ladies here is this weeks
*What I Wore*


*please excuse the mirror shots.. it's just so much easier to take the picture this way.. very Myspace-esque, no?*
high wasited navy blue shorts with a white tank and plaid blouse.. done two ways:
Option #1: tuck in white tank and leave blouse open and untucked
Option #2: button and tuck in blouse as well

*obviously, option number 1 is a little more casual and laid back while option 2 is more professional. This is the outfit i wore last night and i went with #2.. though I love the first look for day time*

these outfits are great for mixing up with different color blouses/shorts/and tanks and tucking the shirts in makes it extra special and interesting.

ok, well it is time for your girl to chow down on some breakfast and try to get a quick tanning session in before work.. though work is basically just a long tanning session while making moolah - i don't hate it.
