Ten on Tuesday


  1. Saturday Big C went to the Whitney Classic so it was a girls day for Me and Baby C. We made Root Beer Floats, Yogurt Popsicles, Went to the park and took an evening stroll on the beach.



  2. Baby C has asked to go to a hip hop dance class since she could speak...I always had an issue with paying for someone to teach her something that I felt she already really knew OR that her father could teach her! LOL But We finally gave in...
  3. I've taken on a new philosophy...well at least for the month of September...it's called "Do it now, Don't wait until later" guess it's my own take on "Don't put off till tomorrow what you can do today".

    Every time I want to add something to a "To Do List" If I can take care of it RIGHT then and there I've been trying to. I swear it's made my life WAY less stressful some how. I feel such a sense  of accomplishment when I do something now. I mean I still have my “To Do List” for long terms needs….
  4. I’ve had a craving to make British Flapjacks. I don’t know why. I really didn't eat them that much as a child. I think I just want to bake them. I think the only difference between them and a granola bar is the syrup in them or something.
  5. Big C recently took a photography class paid for by his job, so now I get to pass over the Canon Rebel to him with the utmost confidence.


  6. I started drinking fennel tea a few months ago as I read many recommendations for it to reduce my sporadic fibroid discomfort. Big C gets severe daily cramps from his diabetes and other medication and I finally convinced him to try my fennel tea.

    He’s the most stubborn man you’ll ever meet (aside from your own husband) and so far, fingers crossed, it’s actually working. He says he’ll  need a solid month to know that it’s really working and not just “mind over matter”....as soon as the months up I can scream..”I Told You So!”
  7. A friend posted the most beautiful simple and elegant fall decor picture on instagram the other day and now I’m totally inspired to blow the dust off the few fall items I have for the house. BJ’s has big huge pumpkins for $5.99 instead of price per pound...we usually get fleeced each year when we buy them by the pound.
  8. I’m reading “The Girl Who Played with Fire” while I wait for my book club to meet to discuss “Wild”...now this book has me totally transfixed turning each page with anticipation compared to the book “Wild”. But there really wouldn't be anything to discuss if was read in a book club.

  9. My BBC Radio 1 Drama podcast “The Archers” is getting soooooo good. This woman cheated on her husband with her husband's half brother and when he found out he had him killed unbeknownst to his wife. He then took his wife on vacation to try and rekindle his marriage but his wife was still grieving the loss of her lover but couldn't tell her husband why she’s grieving. While I’m listening to it at work my mouth constantly drops open with shock!
  10. I set up a Goodreads account for Baby C...it’s so cute seeing all the books she’s read this year. She’s up to 42...well on her way for 100 for 2013.

  1. She might have read more books than me at this point. I'm currently reading a good book for my book club and have another lined up for afterwards!
    I didn't eat flapjacks much either, my sister likes them. Personally, nothing beats a brownie. Maybe that's too American of me!
