G.N.O. Saturday Night! - Last Weekend Of Summer!

Oh Yes!!! We're back for another night! I'm going to be joining thousands in the Race For The Cure tomorrow, so I should ;-> take it easy tonight.
I've got some music requests so while I get those in order, I'm going to grab a drink and start the evening with my 80's Flashback. This song just gets me goin'!
(How old am I? Old!!!)

General Public "Tenderness"


Man, his googlie-eyes kind of freak me out, but he's still cute.

Hey, have you seen the Black Box project? It's based on Caroline Smailes's new novel, "Black Boxes". The books theme is how different choices can effect your path in life. For this project you must make a series of choices and then you will be taken to a mystery blog of another person taking part who picked similar answers to you.... who knows where your answers may lead! Give it a try! Come back and tell us the blog that you found.
(Thanks Cheryl at The Daily Blonde and IrishKat at Sassy Irish Lassie)

I need to get this book!

You can put the Black Boxes widget on your own blog. Let me know if you need my help.

And now I just have to share this. I know a lot of you have seen this, however, it is so fantastic, so amazing, just absolute perfection that I just have to share it.
Here's a word from Saturday Night Live via Tina Fey & Amy Poehler.



Alright. Time for some music. Blarney at The Blarney Spot has a request, so let's grab our drinks, slam our fists in the air and sing at the top our lungs!!!

4 Non Blondes "What's Up?"

So go mingle at our Girls Night Out. I didn't share a wide-spread invitation like I have in the past because I found that some people don't like to be invited to a party. Hmmm?! I just shake my head and say 'What's Going On?!?' If you would like to invite some of your blog pals that would be super! The more the merrier!
I'm going to go freshen my drink! I'll be back!
Remember... when someone leaves a comment go visit their blog and leave a comment. And when your blog is visited, go visit your guests blog. Keep the momentum going.
Come back though! It's a party!

Miss Poodle Perm, That's Me!

Jill of Scary Mommy is doing a linky post about school pictures. You know the ones, possibly you didn't smile a sweet smile, just the smirk of panic. Or you didn't know it was picture day because you had been out sick for a week and you show up in your most comfortable shirt and bed-head. (Yep. That happened to me. The smile was good though!) Well, my scanner isn't working or else I would post a particular picture from Freshman year. Since I don't have a visual, here's the story: I remember my first day of High School. Actually what I remember is the picture taken of me leaving for my first day of High School. I'm wearing a brave smile, but the hair, the hair , my hair style was a nightmare. My two best friends and I were going to be attending a High School out of our district. That was stressful enough. To add to this new-ness we wanted new looks as well. K. was going to sport the Argyle and Alligator shirt look. W. was going for 'All Monogram

My Questions Answered By Chef Pati Jinich - Video

Rob and I have been focusing on finding foods and spices that will help us take some weight off.  I've been slightly obsessed with staying on my exercise track (on week 8 now :->) and hope to get rid of this jiggly belly that has become wa-a-a-ay too comfortable on my body.  The older you get the harder it is to lose weight.  What I would say to my 40 year old self - 'See that pouch starting?  Do your crunches and planks now!  7 years from now it's going to get ugly !' I've found that spices cumin, cayenne pepper, red pepper flakes and turmeric are noted to increase metabolism.  ( Yes please !)  After a good workout coconut water is more beneficial in regulating your electrolytes, and lower in calories, than sports drinks.  It also contains more potassium than other drinks which is an important component in helping to build muscle which, in turn, helps you burn more calories. And my most surprising discovery - eating avocados help burn belly fat! I&#
