I need a new hair dryer!

Hello Ladies! I am in need of your help. My hair dryer is slowly dying. It stays hot for a little while but then turns cooler. Thus, it is taking a lot longer to dry my hair. What hair dryers do you ladies have and swear by? THANKS!

For us crazies...

***ok girls, just a follow up on this post. I thought this 'contraption' was the most preposterous thing/alternative I've ever laid eyes on. no it is not a joke, people actually use these things...i guess. judging by your comments so far, i guess this could be labeled "not good stuff" :) sharn, if you're the site moderator, feel free to delete this post, so we don't have to keep looking at it! :) ***

Easy Medicine

So at my house we have all, well mostly, all been sick. Josh had a double ear infection and I decided to go to Target to fill his prescription because I had a few other things to get. Target is the best place ever to get liquid Antibiotics. They put a cap on the bottle with a hole just the size of the syringe they give you. So you can shove the syringe in there, dump the bottle upside down and get out the exact amount of medication right down to the last drop! It is awesome! There was no tilting of the bottle to try and get out enough medicine for those last few doses and it was also mess free. I guess they also color code prescriptions so everyone in the family gets a different color and you can tell just by the color whos medicine it is! Very cool stuff if you ask me!

This is NOT the good stuff

Hey Girls,

I just wanted to warn everybody that I have been receiving spam comments on my personal blog lately (twice in the last week) and wanted to warn you guys about it too.  If you receive a comment from someone you don't know that says "click here" just delete it.  Its a virus.  For this reason I have enabled word verification, and comment moderation on my own personal blog since that's supposed to help eliminate spam.  Just wanted to give you all the heads up!

Convinced!

Alright girls, I am now convinced!

Twilight Moms

Someone told me about this website - Twilight Moms. OK, I thought I was a Twilight fan and borderline obsessed with the series but these ladies at Twilight Moms are hardcore!!!. They have a Forum with tons of good info and they even have rules to join: 1) you have to be at least 25 years old 2) you have to be married and 3) you have to have kids.

So, I was browsing through the Forum the other day (you don't have to join to read - just to post) and they have a whole section of the Forum dedicated to the movie. Some of the "moms" live near Portland, where Twilight is currently being filmed. They have taken it upon themselves to become Twilight detectives and have figured out where they are filming, what high schools they are using, etc. But they didn't just stop there - they also decided to become stalker moms and stake out the set and actually got photos with some of the cast. The link below has pictures and then the accompanying story about each of the pictures they were able to get. Some of the stories are pretty funny (like meeting the cast, and the High School pics) - these ladies mean business and won't accept failure!! Check it out:

These ladies definitely stay on top of the Twilight news, so there's lots of good info in the Forum. Enjoy!

A Good Trick

I don't know about you guys but 2 of my worst chores are cleaning out the microwave and the fridge.  My friend Alaina told me a good trick for cleaning out the microwave that I thought I'd share.  As for the fridge, if any of you have a good trick, let me know!

Okay...to clean out the microwave fill a small bowl up with water and nuke it for a couple of minutes.  The steam from the hot water softens all the crusted on oogies and they easily wipe away after that!  Simple as that!

Cullen Family Casted!

For those of us on here that are obsessed, Stephenie posted some new photos on her website of the Cullen Family - it's now fully casted!

She also posted some photos of when she went to dinner with the cast...I'm so excited, I can barely stand it! Perhaps a WKTGS weekend will be in order?

The Best Dip Ever!

I LOVE Kraftfoods.com, and found this most amazing dip ever.



Cheesy Spinach and Bacon Dip

1 pkg. (10 oz.) frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained
1 lb. (16 oz.) VELVEETA Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Product, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) Cream Cheese, cut up
1 can (10 oz.) ROTEL Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies, undrained
8 slices Bacon, crisply cooked, drained and crumbled
COMBINE ingredients in microwaveable bowl.
MICROWAVE on HIGH 5 min. or until VELVEETA is completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring after 3 min.


Okay, so when I made it, I also added extra cream cheese and about 1 tsp. of chopped garlic. I microwaved it and then when it was all mixed, I just put it in my crock pot for warming. I am not kidding when I say this dip far exceeded my expectations!
