Adjustable beds

Posted by Jodi on Jan 26 2008 | Uncategorized

Have you seen the adjustable beds they have out there now? They come in one of those bed in a box things. Just like you can get a bed in a bag, how cool is that?  I wonder if they are really comfortable.  I like that you can adjust them so you can sit up in bed, while still having the comfort of being reclined.  I could lie in bed and still knit away!  I am going to have to look into this for our next bed purchase.

So I have picked Cross Stitch back up…

Posted by Jodi on Jan 21 2008 | cross-stitch

I have come full circle in my craft/hobbies.  I have started some cross stitch projects again, even though I have a ton of knitting to do for gifts.  I know remember why I stopped doing the CS, my thumbs are so sore right now.  I found some really cute baby ones that I am going to do for a few friends.  As soon as I get them cranked out, I will post a pic of them.

They’re back…

Posted by Jodi on Jan 21 2008 | Uncategorized

platform shoes that is. I never really cared for them back in the day, but find them rather cute today! I like them for the added height they give me!  They even make them for the little girls and are just way to cute!!  I would love to get a pair  for my nieces!  I wonder what my bother would think?  I bought a pair of boots for myself, that have a slight platform to them, and give me just the right height I was looking for!

Gold jewelry

Posted by Jodi on Jan 21 2008 | Uncategorized

I love gold jewelry!! But what girl doesn't right? I am beginning to like white gold more and more tho.  I wonder if I can have the reset my wedding ring in white gold.  I am going to look into this, and then more than likely will have to start saving up for it.  I have a feeling it may not be a cheap process.

Body building supplements

Posted by Jodi on Jan 21 2008 | Uncategorized

What are prohormones? They are the legal steroids for body builders.  They give you substantial gain in strength and size  without water bloat. The gains come quickly as you will notice the quality of muscle hardness and fullness within a very short period of time. While using this product you can lose body fat and gain muscle in about eight weeks.

Christopher is looking at gold watches for this birthday. Knowing him he is picking out the most expensive ones too.  I told him we could get him one for his birthday, but it would have to be in our price range.  I can't believe I will be the mother of a twenty year old next month!!  WoW!   I need to start planning a party, and have my sister in law help me with a cake.  She is the cake designer in the family, but I want to do it this year with her help.

Insurance??

Posted by Jodi on Jan 14 2008 | Uncategorized

Would you purchase extra travel health insurance if you were going on vacation?  I'm not sure if we would.  We never get the insurance option, even though we should, as you never know what might happen.  After I booked out trip to Florida a few years ago, I worried for months that something would happen and we wouldn't be able to go.  We would have been out of a lot of money.  Thankfully nothing happened and we all got to enjoy that wonderful, well deserved vacation!

Car Covers

Posted by Jodi on Jan 13 2008 | Uncategorized

My father in law needs to get a car cover for his Lincoln. Right now he has it in the garage, but needs to move it out, as he just ordered new kitchen cabinets and they arrived early, so in the garage they go. He has babied his car for so long, I am surprised he is seriously considering storing his car outside with just a cover. But mom's cabinets come first.

Mustard anyone?

Posted by Jodi on Jan 13 2008 | cooking

I have been asked to do a review on Grey Poupon mustards.  We have the Hearty Spicy Brown and Harvest Coarse Ground to try. 

I am not a mustard fan (unless I doctor it up in a recipe), so I am leaving it up to my guys to give me an honest review.  Sundays are days I don't really like to cook, so for dinner we had subs.   The the guys tried the spicy one on half of their sub, they both liked it, said it had just the right spice for their liking.  Then they tried the other one on the other half of the subs, and didn't care for the taste of it.  They said they had too much of a bite for their taste.   

I love experimenting with different recipes, so I can't wait to try out a mustard sauce recipe on the pork chops I have in the freezer this week.  I found this recipe, pork chops with dijon sauce.  I am going to alter the mustard up and use the Hearty Spicy Brown mustard.  Doesn't this look yummy?

 

I can't wait to sink my teeth into it!

A modern girl

Posted by Jodi on Jan 10 2008 | Uncategorized

I'm a modern kinda gal, so I guess I should get me some modern office furniture. I am hoping to get a nice 4 bedroom home, so I can have a office/craft room. So of course I need to do some shopping to fill up that room! What girl doesn't like to shop, right? I would love to get one of those hi-back executive chair in leather.  I love the smell of leather!  I have to have an L shaped desk to!  I guess I had better start saving up my money so I can outfit this new room!
