ATL to HNL

The next several posts are scheduled posts.

Right about now we should be in Atlanta and getting ready to take off.

Assuming AA isn't on strike.

By this afternoon we should be in Dallas.

And later this afternoon we should be in beautiful Honolulu!

Last Work Day!

Today is my last work day and then it's off to Hawaii!

I am SO stressed trying to make sure everything is taken care of, packed, cleaned, etc.

Pray for safe travels & that American Airlines doesn't decide to strike on any of our flights!  

Thirsty?

Last week while at the gas station, a lady in front of me was buying a .69 cent thirst buster (soda).

But ask me how she paid for this drink? 

With an EBT (foodstamp) card!

Then after she got her soda, she went to the Redbox & rented a movie with her debit card!

Yes I took a pic of her!

Pffft!!

Birthday Weekend

I had a successful birthday weekend!

The theme of my party was a Wine Exchange as I explained in a previous post

and I now have a full bar of wine (even after we shared several bottles)!

My cake!

Doesn't quite look like the original pic but 

good enough & it tasted great.

 Just a few of the various wines!

 Brother & I

 Friends

I'm so thankful for the many bottles of wine, 

gift cards, cash, LSAT book, & other gifts I received!

These are so comfy!

New shades for Hawaii!

Now I plan to have a ladies night wine exchange party so 

I can properly ensure everyone goes home with a bottle this time! :)

Happy Friday!

I am guest blogging today over at Life in a Southern Town!

Come check me out!

Merry Christmas!

I've already ordered & received our 2012 Christmas cards! lol!

Yes I realize it's a little early but it's one last thing I'll have to worry about during the holidays.

I ordered these from Mpix when they were having a sale a few weeks ago!

They have a lot of cute choices and were super easy to order. 

I may have to order another set though because I only got 24...

(Actually 25 but I always keep one for myself!)

Have you started shopping for your Christmas Cards yet?

New Favorite Recipe

I stumbled upon this recipe on Pinterest and it is DIVINE! 

I love anything with corn so of course I had to try it.

It was super easy to follow & YUMMY as hell!

This recipe comes from Budget Savvy Diva.

It's called "Delicious Cream Cheese Corn."

Yes, you must keep delicious in the title.

Ingredients

1 pound of corn ( fresh or thawed)

1 Tablespoon of butter

3 oz of cream cheese (they sell these in 3oz squares!)

Red Pepper Flakes

Pepper

What To Do

In a medium saucepan combine – corn, butter, and cream cheese.

When it is heated through and cream cheese is 

melted, season with pepper and red pepper flakes to taste.

That's it!
No baking.
Directly on your stove top!

I will never buy canned corn again!
