PLAYTIME!!!

Well, as I mentioned yesterday, I have a new toy for the toybox. I talk quite a bit about making exercise fun. Among my "toys" are super fun dvds (Turbo Jam is my favie), a stability ball, a frisbee, a jump rope.... these are all pretty much fun activity tools that warp me back to my childhood. Well get ready readers cuz I just got the mack-daddy for playtime! THE URBAN REBOUNDER!!!

Wow! Is this thing FUN! And it folds to fit in a suitcase. This is some serious travel workout equipment. I cannot keep my hands off of it! I forgot how much I loved jumping! But beyond fun, it gets your heart rate up, is super low impact and surprisingly helps to cleanse your lymph system. Talk about your health benefits! Nothing else I own claims that kind of benefit. Here's a site that explains the detox benefit: http://www.healingdaily.com/exercise/rebounding-for-detoxification-and-health.htm.

Just so everyone knows, I got it off of HSN.com for $99. It came with exercise dvds, a stability bar and resistance bands. And again, THIS THING FOLDS DOWN (folds in half, then in half AGAIN)! I can easily put it into my suitcase with room for clothes. Oh, and one more thing, you can put it on flex pay and receive it at your house for around $33 AND there's FREE shipping AND it's just soooo much fun! Did I mention that? The instructions say to have two people to fold it up as it snaps into place when you open it, but I've opened and closed mine by myself quite a few times with no problem. This Urban Rebounder gets a super sonic high five from me.... PLAYTIME!!!

Past 7 Days....

Healthy Pizza

Welp... I'm on vacation. I alotted 3 days to be bad and eat whatever I want. Boy did I ever! Yuck! I feel nasty, and bloated and just generally "out of whack"! So today will be a light eating day. Oh how I wish I would have just gotten the supplies I needed to do The Master Cleanse ... Damage control: Healthy Pizza (it's what's for dinner! LOL!) 2 cloves garlic 1/4 C. of olive oil Blend until smooth in the Magic Bullet. Expect to have some left over to store for future pizzas. 2 Mission Carb Balance tortilla shells (I use 2 small, but you can use 1 large) Thinly sliced mushrooms Thinly chopped bell peppers (all colors) Diced onion Thinly sliced zucchini Diced Cabbage (any color) Non Fat Mozorella cheese Any other vegetable that you prefer sliced thin... make sure not to use veggies that are too wet, as that will keep the tortilla from crisping. And be sure that you don't overload the tortilla, or you might have a hard time picking it up to eat... remember... ...

Food Saver Gold - Give Away!!

Sometimes I am just not a master of the obvious! Most of the time, pretty simple things elude me, but this time... Here is a VERY small sample of my stash (wow, that almost sounds illegal)! It was during one of my organizational rampages that I discovered this amazing and economical use after having to throw out bottles of polish that had gone unused for years. What a waste!!! And yes, I missed that particular use in the infomercial from way back when! :) NOW I know that when you hit sales on things like nail polish or shampoos, you can stock up and vacuum seal them and they stay just like brand new for when you're ready to use them. This is something that will free many polish lovers who fall in love with a specific color but cannot stock up for fear that the polish will dry up before they are through with the first bottle. Not anymore polish addicts and future polish addicts... here's your fix! I even did that with last years Halloween makeup! You know... the make up that you...

Gorgous Leaves Bundle Revisited

Yestday's Freebie Friday on a Monday projects were so fun and this set is SO BEAUTIFUL in it's simplicity!  It reminds me of a long-retired stamp set from Stampin Up!.  I was inspired to re-create the projects that I made with it once upon a time.  So here we go.... SIMPLE projects when you need a quick "hello" or an even quicker heartfelt sympathy card: I was DEFINITELY on a Bumblebee and Cajun Craze kick yesterday!  I can't stop/won't stop!  LOL!  To be fair... I had extra leaves die cut and didn't want anything to go to waste!  A quick speckle backdrop in Bumblebee then a quick "hello" greeting from the Biggest Wish in Cajun Craze with the Cajun Craze leaf popped up on a Basic White cardbase.  PERFECTION! Okay, as with yesterday's projects, the sentiment is from the recently retired SAB Delicate Dahlia's set, but you could use ANY sympathy sentiment you have in your stash.  Unlike in the past when I had to mask off the center rectangle...
