tagged

I was tagged by MomVader to do this meme.

The rules of this tag are quick & easy:
1. Go to the the 4th folder where you keep your pictures on your computer.
2. Post the 4th picture in the folder.
3. Explain the photo.
4. Tag 4 fellow bloggers to join in the fun!


Here it is:

4th folder, 4th photo

That is a photo of the new business cards I received in the mail this past February. Each one has a photo that I have taken on them. They are from moo.com (I SO love that website name!).

Oh, and I'm not tagging anyone. If you want to do it, feel free to do so!

Now with less hair!

Just a quick post with a picture I snapped when I got home earlier! It will take a lot of getting used to but it's exactly what I wanted. I have to not brush my neck next time I brush my hair - that wasn't very pleasant, LOL.

I did it!

12 inches.

After over a year of not getting my hair cut, I am getting 12 inches of hair cut off tomorrow afternoon. I'm excited, but also wicked nervous about it. Having my hair/head touched gives me the heebie jeebies something fierce, so this is not an easy thing for me to do.

Here is the "before" shot, taken tonight. Please ignore the saggy baggy jeans. They look much better first thing in the morning, when they're not all stretched out from standing/sitting/standing/etc.

Before.

Wish me luck!

one cupcake update

Just a quick post, as I know there's at least one reader out there who wants more cupcake posts, LOL.

one

That is one lonely little chocolate peppermint cupcake. I have 47 more just like it that are making their way to a late Christmas party for my 4-H club tonight. The frosting is delish!! I didn't try the cupcake (don't like chocolate much) but the kids gave the cake a rave review too.

Happy new year

Happy my ass.

I got up this morning with plans to use my mini-cheesecake pan for the very first time. I had a nice blog photo entry all planned, as I took pictures along the recipe process. Then, I got distracted as I was putting the pan in the oven all filled with cheesecakey goodness and totally forgot to lower the oven temperature as the recipe called for.

Want to know what happens to little bite-sized cheesecakes when you forget to lower the oven temp?

Poof!

POOF!

Then, as they start to cool, they look like this!

AAAAARRRGGGGHHHH!

I'm sure they still taste just fine, maybe a little over-done, but fine anyway. My hubby and kids can eat them, but they're not leaving the house looking like that! (the cheesecakes, not my boys)

So, anyway, I leave you with the wish for a happy and healthy new year!

Happy New Year!
