Alright everyone! It's Friday night and summer is coming to a close. I believe we deserve a Virtual Girls Night Out!!! So go grab your drink of choice and lets get started. (I've found a recipe for a "Pearl Greek Goddess". That sounds about right! The recipe is at the bottom this post.)

Party Game!

Games of tag are floating around tonight! My first tonight is from Mary at Everyday Baby Steps. I'm supposed to share 7 Weird Facts About Me. Yikes! 7?!? Let me go grab some wine first...
O.K. (Remember, 'weirdness' is subjective. Perhaps I'm quite normal. Naaah!

1. I love the show "Will & Grace". I could watch the show every day. LOVE IT!!!
2. I love white food. If I'm at a buffet my plate will come back looking a quilt of white. I don't know why? I just love food that happens to be white.
3. I HATE those little wooden spoons that come with those little cups of ice cream! HATE the feeling on my teeth!!!
4. I HATE the smell of manilla envelopes! I almost feel like I can't breathe! HATE IT!
5. Whew... calming down... The older I get I lose interest in chocolate.
(I bet that freaks some of you out!)
6. I don't like the feeling of a dirty floor, especially while I'm in bare feet. It's almost like I can't put my feet completely on the floor.
7. I have a horrible memory. I drives everyone I know crazy. (Wait, what? Oh, I don't know. Anyway.... )

So go be weird and share your weirdness with us all!!!


Time for some music

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&#
