Not Me! Monday



Here it is again! Honesty MckMama style, head over to her blog to check out what I mean, oh, who am I kidding...who doesn't know MckMama and her Not Me! Mondays?


Mr. Wonderful and I have a little post church Sunday tradition...are you ready? It's really exciting! We head over to our local McDonald's and get ourselves a couple of iced coffees (see, told ya, really exciting, right?). I am totally, completely a little addicted to this coffee, so I try to limit myself as much as I can. When Sunday rolls around, I have a hard time waiting for my coffee...turns out, tho' that my kids like it too! So much so, that they sucked most of it down when I wasn't looking!! There were definately, possibly, at least a couple of good swigs left, tho', not to mention the ice, which I usually let melt down into luke warm watery iced coffee resembling water. When I realized my coffee was not where I left it, I said, "Aaauuugghhh, where's my iced coffee!!!!!", to which he responded, "I threw it away, it was gone!" Yup, threw it away, as in, in the garbage. (insert Olympic-like sprinting and frantic searching through the garbage here.) Like the mature adult that I am, I did not fish that coffee out of the garbage and proceed to drink all two sips that were left...uh, uh I am much more classy than that and would never consider putting something in my mouth that had been in the garbage, Not Me!

We took the kiddos to see "Up" on Sunday night...cute movie, if a bit heavy for kids. Being that it was, you know, a kid movie and all, I did not get teary during some parts of the movie (and I'm not a spoiler, so I won't tell you a thing!) No way, kid movies don't choke me up, Not Me!

I did not, for the second night in a row, run out of hours minutes in the day and put my kids to bed, grimy and sticky with unbrushed teeth. Yuck, what mother would actually do this? Not Me! That's for sure!

Well, happy Not Me! Monday! Hope everyone has a fantastic week!

  4. Wow to the iced coffee. It's that good, huh?!

    I must admit...there are some select things I might go searching through the garbage for if they accidentally ended up there. :)

  6. LOL In my house we frequently enforce the 5 second rule. The time doesn't start when you know the item is missing, it starts once you find the item and am working on getting it in your mouth..
    Hubby has learned to check the entire candy wrapper before tossing it in the trash can. I WILL eat the crumbs in the bottom :)

  8. I love my coffee too. I totally feel your pain. And hey, sometimes those cups land upright in the garbage...you just never know...I totally understand checking it out and what's more at least you got a few more sips out of it.

  9. I MISS coffee, so I totally understand digging through the trash. My kids have gone to bed dirty before too. Especially in the summer!

  10. I wanna see Up...that old guy better not die. I just know that movie that makes me and my 8 yr old cry is just around the corner...waaaa

    I don't blame you on the coffee and the trash thing...Sundays only come around like every 7 days and if you ask me, that is just too long to wait again!!!!

    Have a great week!

  13. I too {am not} addicted to iced coffee and I {will not} share this story with my hubby to make him see I am not the only one with said addiction. Thanks for making my morning!

Coming soon...

Come here looking for the tutorial? It can be found here:  Halo Braid Tutorial!  Let me know how it goes! I had something in mind to try on Baby Girl's hair the other day...my best bud, Dr. J, did something similar to it on Belle once, and I was trying to replicate it. Instead, I got this: Isn't it pretty?! It didn't take nearly as long as it looks and isn't nearly as intricate as it looks! Vlog tutorial coming soon...(for those of you waiting, I'm sorry it's taking me so long!)

Halo Braid Tutorial!

How appropriate, "halo braid", no?! ;) Finally, I have this ready for you...I apologize for the delay! This braid looks intricate, but is really quite easy and quick to pull off...the original video (prior to the warp speed braiding...watch the video to see what I mean) was just a bit over 8 minutes long...not too shabby! So, here you go...right in time for you to try it out on your little girl for Easter!

Crock-Pot Fajitas

You! Yes, YOU!! You must stop whatevertheheck it is that you are doing, and make this recipe. Right now. Tonight. Well...wait. You should probably finish reading this post first...you know...so you know how to make it... But then...STOP! STOP everything, make this, and thank me later! Oh, hold it...wait just a sec (again)...actually, I got this recipe from Melissa...yes, the Melissa of this story ! And this story ...which, well...is the same story, just told two different ways! ;) So, you can thank her...I guess. Well, in any event...prepare your tastebuds to be tantalized! You'll need this: And, this: You'll also need chicken breasts or steak, but since photographing your "main ingredient" is, like, soooo passe, I've left it out. ( Ahem... ) Just keepin ' up with the times, friend. So...slice up those peppers and onions into cute little strips... And...try your best to not slice up the little fingers that are sneaking away pepper strips... (Lemme just inte
