Today
I did my grocery shopping already, kept my spending to under what I had budgeted. That's always a bonus! I love getting those cash register coupons at the checkout, and for once there were actually two that I would use. They always give you ones for stuff you would never buy. I am still hoping that they will give out one for acne pills, one can hope.
I have a cooking class tomorrow to go to, so I had to get a few things for this, like round brie cheese and apricot jam. I found the cheese alright, but the jam not so much. The store I went to had lots of apricot preserves, but no jam. I am hoping that the one I got will do just fine. We are going to be making lots of appetizers, yum!
I actually ventured in the Christmas aisle (even tho I hate that they have them up before Thanksgiving), to look at the ornaments. I have a few exchanges I am in this year, so I am scouting them out early to see what I to get. Then over to the craft asile to look at yarns to go with some towels I am going to be making as well.
Productive morning, now I am killing time before I have to go pick up the kindergartener and then we will be meeting my friend and her boys for lunch.
A new company
I always do lots of internet searching for different business opportunities that I could possibly get into. One I found had to do with Orovo. They have lots of different health products, weight loss products to anti aging products. I am not sure if this is the opportunity for me or not. But I will keep browsing their site to see if any of their weight loss products would help aid me in my journey of losing weight, and if they give me energy, that would be a bonus!
5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE
4 tablespoons flour 4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
a small splash of vanilla extract
1 large coffee mug
Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well.
Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.
Add the chocolate chips(if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts.
The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!
Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired. EAT! (this can serve 2 if you
want to feel slightly more virtuous).
And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world?
Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!
Internet surfing…
… so I have been doing some internet surfing lately, looking at digital cameras. I love the one I have, but need to get a different lens. I am hoping to find a nice one, that isn't going to cost me a pretty penny. I want one that has a better zoom than the one that came with my camera. I wish I would have negotiated a deal when we originally bought the camera.
So for now I am going to do some checking and make a list of all the different places I browse, and then start saving up for my next purchase!
Pens
I am trying to come up with a catchy name for my photography business, and when I do I want to get some promotional pens with the name on them. I can use them as gifts for my potential clients. I still have a ways to go before I am even ready to start buying lots of little fun stuff for this.
