Friday Treat

This month's Martha Stewart Living features this too cute Peppermint House. I'm tempted to try to make it for Christmas.

Which only reminds me that an evil evil friend of mine introduced me to the Peppermint Chocolate Mint Shake currently available at Chick-fil-a. It's truly delightful and evil at the same time.

Thankfully I don't work close to a Chick-fil-a so I'm not tempted much however I do live close to one and it takes a whole lot of effort to avoid it. I hope my OB is reading this.

She did it again

This week marks the 40th Anniversary of Sesame Street. The talented and great Bakerella paid tribute to this great anniversary. Check out her Sesame Street Cake pops.

And if you are like me a bit nostalgic of old Sesame Street episodes, Amazon.com sells some of the originals on DVD.

Freedom isn't Free.

Thank you and God Bless to all those who have served and continue to serve our great nation.

Happy Veteran's Day!

Bump Watch: Weeks 29-32

I'm getting bigger by the minute. Can you tell in picture below where my belly hit the chalkboard and I had no idea till I pulled up pic. I randomly brush up to a ton of things now. I guess you have to get used to it.

20 years ago

The Berlin wall fell.

My family was lucky to spend 9 years in Germany during the 80's. At the time we lived in West Germany and left months before this historic event.

I can't believe 20 years have come and gone. I can't wait to take my little one to see the areas in which I grew up and for both of us to see what Germany is like now. After seeing imagines from a local photographer here, I wish I could book my trip right now.

It happened

No not the baby....Although these days have been getting quite uncomfortable and I may have wished on occasion for the weeks to fly so that I can be done already...but enough on that.

What happened was that for the first time in my life I ate off a trailer in the middle of the street. An established business of coarse but completely mobile buisiness.


The hubby's birthday was last week so as a gift I got him ticket to the Avett Brother's concert on Halloween night. Don't worry if you don't recognize the band because I didn't know them at all.

Here is their info and a clip from the show we attended. I was truly surprised at how much I enjoyed the show, didn't think I would. After the show we headed to a local bar which had a pub crawl event that evening. Well that's when it happened.

Parked outside the bar was the the infamous Mas Tacos Por Favor trailer that serves tacos at odd hours of the night to Nashvillians. They post tweets on Twitter as to their pending changing locations and then offer their goodness to all, mostly after 10pm.

Well around midnight halloween night my determination to not flock to the trailer gave way and I ordered a fried avocado and a charred chicken taco. They were DELICIOUS. I still can't believe I purchased something off a moving trailer but it was soo worth it.

If ever about in the middle of the night in Nashville on the weekend check them out.

I've been eying this sling by Serena and Lily for a while. Finally a sale posted and I had to snap it up. It's 100% organic cotton and 100% beautiful in person. It's received some great reviews and I can't wait to use it.
