Super Bowl XLVI

Ok gang... today is Super Bowl Sunday and I'm going to PARTY! This year it's the Patriots vs. the Giants. I honestly haven't kept up the football teams but I can tell you that the same was true for the last Super Bowl Party I attended and it ROCKED!!! It was 18 years ago (GEEZ... that long really?!?) and my buddies Lynn and Wayne put it on. It was the most memorable party I ever attended... I had THE BEST TIME!!! My only regret is that my husband can't join me this year, although remembering that last party, I'm thinking it might be for the best. HAHAHAHAHA!

Anyway, I thought I'd put together some goodies to take with me. The pic above is one of the commemorative goody boxes I made using Stampin Up's Sizzix Matchbox die. This die is actually one of the most used dies I own. If you're on the fence about this one...its a MUST HAVE!!! As you can see in the pic, four Hershey's Nuggets fit in it perfectly. It will also hold other mini chocolates (I looked for footballs but they were sold out), two mini Wonka Nerds or two mini Laffy Taffys. Stampin Up also makes a couple of stamp sets that allow you to stamp images to wrap your candy with (see below).

I try to keep my crafty supply purchases to items that I KNOW I will use more than twice. I've officially used this item 20 times now thanks to this year's Super Bowl. Have an awesome and safe Super Bowl Sunday gang and may your favorite team win!

MY VERY FIRST CRICUT CARTRIDGE GIVE AWAY!

Ok ... so the time has come. I've got some BRAND NEW, NEVER BEEN USED, STILL IN THE PLASTIC Cricut Cartridges to give away over the next couple of months and it starts with one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITES...... Hannah Montana! YAY! I LOVE this cartridge! It's got the most beautiful guitar images along with musical notes and FIVE fonts! I used the regular font and the rock star font to create my Father's Day card this year (see above). I also used the Hannah Montana cart (see below) to create a beautiful butterfly (FREE Gypsy cut file HERE ), and am currently working on a project using the gorgeous solitaire diamond. There's a rose and lips and decorative hearts, even a Pegasus ! There's just so much on this cartridge.... I use it a lot! To call this a "font" cartridge is terribly misleading. It's been a long time favorite and now I'm THRILLED to be able to give it away to one of my awesome readers! So here's how to win: Become one of my follower

The Inventor Of the TV Dinner Should Be Slapped!

Close observation of my eating shows that I can scarf my tuna casserole at an alarming rate. I sit in front of the TV to eat my dinner and 5 minutes later I am pushing the plate away with little to no memory of ever have eaten. That is interesting to me because, you see, I LOVE FOOD! I also LOVE being thin. These facts SHOULD come to life by the knowledge that if I took smaller bites and chewed thoroughly , not only would I get to enjoy my food that much longer, but I would also be burning more calories (yes, the activity of chewing burns calories!!!!)! And on top of THAT amazing knowledge, my body would also be able to process the food I eat much better therefore more of the food I consume would be utilized to help build my lean mean body. So what the heck is up???? Why DON'T I slow down my eating knowing all these amazing benefits? What's causing this little glitch? Those are the very questions I asked myself at the start of this year. I knew the answer before I ever wrote th
