miscellany monday

 I painted 40 toenails and 40 fingernails this past week.  All in one night.  It was fun.  When my friend Shelby came to visit I recommended that us moms do manicures and pedicures for fun.  Shelby doesn't paint fingers or toes, so guess who got to...yours truly.  I had to hold my hand super steady to paint those little toes and fingers. And then I painted mine.  It was fun so fun, and the girls giggled and laughed the whole time :)

Sometimes I dream about fried pickles.  They are so good.  I live in the Fort Worth area, and one of my best friends lives in the Dallas area.  Half way for us just happens to be Grapevine.  We both LOVE  I mean really love hot wings and so the best place to meet for us girls is Hooter's.  We enjoy our lunch every time.  We try to do it once a month, but life sometimes gets in the way.

Have you ever wanted to smack yourself?  I have.

 Recently I purchased this bread maker (I blogged about it last week.) at a garage sale for $7.00.  The sweet lady I bought it from used it one time.  You can tell.  It is spotless.  It was still in the box.  A sweet friend of mine from my hometown sent me a recipe via Facebook {thanks Vickie...my family thanks you} and now I am hooked!  The recipe is AMAZING!!  And now I want to make bread every day. And eat it all by myself while my kids are napping.  But, I can't do that.  It isn't good for my girlish figure.  But I am very happy and will pace myself when I bake a loaf of bread :)

My mother made me this apron and I still wear it!  It is so me.  I love to talk and never shut up, so if the apron fits?!?  I love aprons...they are fun.  I want more aprons.  How is that for randomness!  And why do my posts always end up being about food?  Clearly~I have a problem :)

I am linking my blog to Carissa's today.  To see other random and fun Monday posts head on over to Carissa's blog.  Link up your blog too if you are full of miscellany today.  Everyone is doing it :)
