Baby Watch - Due Date Today

Today, I made the most delicious chili for the kids, in fact, it was probably the best batch I ever made. What was so different about this batch? Well, the smokey flavored Tabasco sauce which is not spicy hot, but just has a real smokey flavor to it. And since, we are just sitting around on baby watch, I had to do something to keep me busy.
Erika is waiting for Northside to call when they have a room available. It probably won't be until tonight. This morning we went to Mittie's for brunch. Although I was rather eager to again visit Mittie's, this visit was not so memorable. I ordered Tangy Sausage Pie which was described on the menu as tart apples, vermont cheddar cheese, caramelized onions and savory sausage. When the food was delivered to the table, I knew immediately something was wrong. After one bite, I knew BIG MISTAKE! The entire pie was sugary sweet and wreaking of brown sugar. Had the waitress not been all of 11 years old, just kidding, she may have realized that when I pushed my plate away with the pie intake, that I hated the dish. Oh well, I just finished my chili which was quite yummy.
Tonight, T Minus Jack countdown begins. I will keep you all posted!

I tried to leave a comment earlier, but blogger wasn't cooperating. There are only a handful of hours left today for Jack to make his debut on Chere's birthday. I wish the very best for Erika and hope her labor and delivery are speedy. Please send of news and photos of Jack as soon as you can. These are moments you will remember always.

A Peak at 2010 for Fellow Taureans

Year 2010 Overview Taurus always gets tagged with things like "pleasure-seeking" and "materialistic." That's probably unfair, in most cases.

Sadly, there's been just too much struggle in your life the last couple of years when it comes to those two very important parts of your life. Thankfully, 2010 marks the end of that long uphill struggle . Your pleasurable pursuits have been a little more restricted than you'd like over the course of the last two years or so. That's over with now, so ... game on! The big events this year will not so much be a matter of major happenings as they will be things that have been in the works and are slowly revealing themselves .

Christmas in July Give A Way

What better way to celebrate the middle of summer with a give a way for one lucky blogging friend? Just because I want to, I will be giving away a Christmas box with an accordion album. This happens to be my design and I have already given one away last December. Sorry, Kate , you will have to sit this one out! This paper mache box holds an accordion album inside. More than likely, I will make a minor modification to the box before shipping it to its new home. I really love these vintage papers from Melissa Frances Scrapbook . Her collection of designs and patterns reminds me of a little sea side cottage. I can smell the ocean spray right now. These papers bring me back to a time when I think I would have loved to live…The Victorian Age. But let’s not fool anyone, I want all of the modern day luxuries. This paper on the left takes me back to a time when I played with cut outs. I was never a doll kid, but give me cut outs and I was happy for days. S o if you think you would ...
