Housewives

Last night The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills finale was on. It was Pandora's wedding... daughter of Lisa VanderPump. I guess watching the planning and prep for this wedding had my expectations too high. Don't get me wrong, it was beautiful and elegant as we would expect from Lisa, but the show really didn't satisfy my craving for what they had been teasing me with. My disappointment continued with the women getting together at Kyle Richards home to end the season. I expected more conversation with Taylor Armstrong since she had been laying low since the tragedy of Russell. Kyle's house would have been the suitable place for her to bring her therapist and have a sit down with the ladies versus the grand opening of Sur. Also, more of Adrienne Maloof's shoe line would have been nice to see since she packed a few for the evening, and where was Brandi Glanville?  Let's just say that the finale didn't leave me wanting more, but I'm still a huge fan of these women. I find them to be a group of friends that speak the truth, empower and support each other... hope they're planning for a next season!




When a woman tells the truth she is creating the possibility for more truth around her.

I left early this morning to get some shopping done, and I have to be honest - not ready to be sold on Christmas  I know it's the way retail works - I put many years into that industry, but I truly hate how overly commercialized Christmas is. They brainwash people and kids into thinking they have to have the newest and best of everything, and most people buy into the lie.  But what about the kids that their parents can't fall into the trap because financially they just can't do it. Are they made fun of or shunned by their peers because they don't have the newest clothes, gadgets, or toys?  Do they feel inferior or not worthy enough to receive - according to the advertisers you have to have it. It's not fair or right and I hate it!                                                               I think we all need to ...
When I saw this I thought what a perfect gift for my husband. You see he bought me a television for the bedroom years ago and hung it on the wall before most people were hanging them on the wall. Of course with the TV came a remote - so it's my remote, right?  Really the only time he touches it is when I lose it - (which I do daily) he seems to be the one that always finds it so I think wrapping the remote and letting him use it for a day with some candy attached is perfect! I hope I can actually give it up for a day - he's not a fan of Bravo or HGTV.   http://willowbirdbaking.com/2012/04/25/gooey-chocolate-skillet-cake-ice-cream-sundae/  Also, I came across this cake which is pretty much the same recipe as my Texas Sheet Cake. I just never thought of baking it in my cast iron skillet and digging the center out to fill with ice cream... yum! We're all a fan of chocolate so this might make the Father's Day dessert list. Yesterday I put a cheesecake recipe up th...

Friendship Day

HAPPY NATIONAL FRIENDSHIP DAY! Those that know me well know that I'm not big on all of these designated days, unless of course it's National Wine Day; but friendship was already on my mind before I realized what day it was. I have a small circle of friends because my friendships are extremely important to me. I value them and I never take the relationship for granted. I know that my friends are one of God's many blessings to me - I'm grateful for each and everyone of them. Here's what being my friend boils down to: There's certain expectations that I have with my friends - unspoken but known. Such as trust & honesty. I want to be able to share my life, both good and bad without worry of it being repeated. I want them to be honest with me regardless if I want to hear it or accept it. If I messed up tell me, because I'm sure going to tell you. I hate being too serious - I love having random conversations that make me laugh. I have a sense of hu...
