Happy Sunday

Which means... 1 week until school begins...uhhh
So it was slim pickins in my paper today.... although the cover says over $1000 in savings inside... but just one little insert, where is the rest of the savings? I'm lost I guess...
I did stumble upon some campbell's coupons, some sweet too! Go here. I may just have to run to publix again before the sale ends on Campbells Chunky soup! (BoGO $2.39- $1/2 Q= $1.39/2 which is good because my walmart had them about $1.50/1). And it's super quick for when i just don't have time to prepare a meal....
Other than that I'm hoping to accomplish something today and that my ant bites will go away- they have been waking me in the middle of the night because they itch like crazy!
I hope that everyone has an awesome Sunday!!!!
God Bless us and guide us everyday!

My Birthday

This is my birthday cake, link to recipe in previous post. I made this! It's not store bought but very Delicious!!!!
This is what i got for my birthday, doesn't show cards, money, or the nursing book my brother's family got me.

Skinny Jeans?

For the last few years it seems like everywhere you go they have Skinny Jeans... If fact I'm fairly sure that my nieces almost strictly wear them. I have yet to be consumed by this trend... so my question is.... Do you do skinny jeans?
please leave a comment!

Tomorrow is my birthday, yay! I won't be cooking dinner but i am making my own cake. I'm feeling adventurous and chocolatey... so i'm going to attempt to make this...
And i'm gonna eat it with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream- yummy! Hopefully...

Friday the 13th

I know it's only August but come on... no scary movie marathon... no "Friday The 13th" movies? Epic Fail! But on a good note Dinner was great! I made Balsamic Chicken Breasts (from Southern Living magazine) w/ corn on the cob and baked red potatoes (it's what i had on hand and needed a small side)... then afterward, I made myself a smoothie w/ 2/3 cup ice, 2/3 cup milk, almost a whole banana (had mushy dark spot that i removed) and 2 frozen strawberries- yummy and light. Plus I got in all my food groups (meat, dairy, fruit & veggie.. ok no "grains" but i got carbs!).
