Spiritual by Drea


SO i couldn't think of anything...
I mean I've tried to relax and put myself on a plane that would you know lead to a higher level of thinking.
so i am sitting on the sofa with the boys, (cwb and dee ohh gee) and they want to wrestle....
csi miami is on and i am catching up on the mail from the boards.
And Am still looking around for that higher plane, and it struck me
that some times its not the plain you aspire to , but the plane your own.
Kat williams has this joke about when your kids are little all you want them to do is talk...but then when they talk all you want them to do is stfu.
so i am sitting here and it struck me...i am on a higher plane
i mean not so long ago there wasn't hardly a day that i was at home with my husband..
More often than not we'd go months of only seeing each other when we were trading off the vehicle. a total of maybe 25-20 mins a day.
There were times when we couldn't sleep in the same bed because we were used to sleeping alone.
Times when there was no sound in our house unless the phone rang....there were times that i hadn't spoken in so long that m y voice would crack....there was no one home with me to speak to
So as i sit her frustrated, wanting just a little bit of silence, i realize that it wasn't so long ago that i was aching for the sound of his voice.
so my higher plane today is appreciating the noise and the rukus
The feeling of being croweded off the sofa by two over active males...
Its amazing what you can see when you look

Frugal Living is Possible by Thumper


1. Sell your kids. Go on, you know that someone out there wants them and will pay good money for them, especially for the little 'uns. I'm talking 6-figure sums at least, here. Imagine what you could do with that amount of money. Pay off credit cards? Check. Repay mortgage in full? Check. Repay start-up business loan for that 'great' idea you had that no one - not even your mother - was interested in? Check. Don't let your husband/wife talk you out of it just because they are attached to/fond of said children. That's just being soft and they need to man up.
2. Quit wearing underwear. I don't care how much value you get with a pack of '5 pairs for £10 Marks & Spencer undies'. There's more value in spending nothing in order to wear nothing. And you can't buy the sort of excitement-tinged-with-fear you get from going commando while wearing a skirt in a drafty tube station. You know what I'm talking about. Think it's exciting now when your skirt gets blown over your head by a draft of air from the approaching train? Get some fantastic value and try it with no pants on. Priceless.
3. Sell your husband's mint collection of Star Wars figurines. Don't try and tell me that you've never sneaked a crafty look just for interests' sake at the prices those things sell for on ebay. It's criminal to keep a small fortune stashed in the bottom of the closet because he's all sentimental about them and other such feeble-minded nonsense. Especially when that money could be put to such better use by paying the mortgage buying the entire Marc Jacobs new season collection.
4. Ditch your ideals and go and work for Evil Corporation. You've thought about it, you know you have. Yes it means those under-privileged kids you currently work with might be worse off. Yes it means your soul will be sucked dry within the year and you'll need a cocktail of anti-anxiety meds just to get out of bed in the morning. And sure, you'll probably forget what your kids look like, but that's what nannies are for. You'll be rich and debt-free! And you'll never have to sit in a staff meeting with a bunch of greasy-haired hippies wondering why no-one has taken notice of your 'Deodorant Every Day Makes a Happy Workplace' memo and musing over the killing you could make selling cut-price Birkenstocks out of the boot of your car.
5. Give up grooming. It's a waste of money and you know it. Eyebrow plucking, hair colouring, bikini waxing - who needs it? Your husband will love you just as much if you have underarm hair down to your hips and hairier legs than he does. It's all in your head that you need to look like Kate Moss on those irritating Rimmel ads – you don't need to get the London look. It's just a bunch of commercial rubbish that's been drilled into your head by a bunch of Big Fat Bald men who want you to spend £120 on a 20ml pot of eye cream. You'll save loads of cash, and be honest - you've always wondered how liberating it would feel to wear elastic-waisted trousers to work once you've quit the gym and removed all the mirrors from your house. And hey, if you want to go really fancy, instead of cutting the toes out of your trainers because your toenails are too long and tough to cut after months of neglect, get yourself some Birkenstocks. Open-toed. Genius. See? Everyone's a winner.

Tastey Tuesday by Alcira

Red Velvet Cake Balls








Get lost in the feeling....
Saturate yourself in different flavors...
Taste, Touch, Feel, Celebrate...

Let's try a Red Velvet Cake Balls with Cream Cheese Filling and Chocolate Frosting....

Warm and moist..., just how you like it..., and
Lick-ably filling.., just how I like it!


Don't forget the nuts...

Happy Tuesday.., did you try the Lusty Lap Dance???

1 box red velvet cake mix (cook as directed on box for 13 X 9 cake)
1 can cream cheese frosting (16 oz.)
1 package chocolate bark (regular or white chocolate)wax paper

1. After cake is cooked and cooled completely, crumble into large bowl.
2. Mix thoroughly with 1 can cream cheese frosting. (It may be easier to use fingers to mix together, but be warned it will get messy.)
3. Roll mixture into quarter size balls and lay on cookie sheet. (Should make 45-50. You can get even more if you use a mini ice cream scooper, but I like to hand roll them.)
4. Chill for several hours. (You can speed this up by putting in the freezer.)
5. Melt chocolate in microwave per directions on package.
6. Roll balls in chocolate and lay on wax paper until firm. (Use a spoon to dip and roll in chocolate and then tap off extra.) I also only melt a few pieces of chocolate bark at a time because it starts to cool and thicken. It's easier to work with when it's hot.

HUMPDAY

In some cases, a simple change of scenery can make a big difference in bringing a little spice to your love-life. The tables of your house can be used in many other ways than just serving those delicious Red Velvet Cake Balls! While reading cosmo.com, I came across the fun that is the torrid tabletop. Make sure you have the proper tools for this position. You'll need a sturdy table, and the willingness to try something new.

Here’s how you do it: Lie down on the table with your butt near the edge. Your Mr. Me then enters you while standing between your legs and holding on to your hips for leverage. This position gives you the option of resting your feet on his shoulders, on the edge of the table, wrapping your legs around his waist, or a combination of both-like one foot resting on his shoulder and the other on the table. Because he's standing, his hands are free to stroke your body all over and help you with leveraging your body for optimum contact. To help you have a better, stronger orgasm (who doesn’t want that!!) clench and lift up your butt. This increases pelvic tension and blood flow to the vaginal area.

Also, in my opinion, this is a wonderful new way to receive oral as well. You should be in the same position, and your Mr. Me can either sit down or be in the standing position with your feet on his shoulders. If he sits, you should be in perfect mouth level position. In the standing position, you feet should rest on his shoulders and he can grasp your hips to help you raise yourself up to his mouth. Either way, it means more happy time for your va jay jay!!

So ladies what do you think of the torrid tabletop? And remember if the table is a rockin’… make sure to be careful... that thing might be ready to break!!

Until next HUMPDAY…

RELAXATIONSabra L. Katz-Wise
Certain breathing exercises and body muscle relaxation exercises help reduce stress.
Practice relaxation exercises 10 to 20 minutes a day.
Tell others in your house that you are going to practice your relaxation exercises. Ask them not to disturb you.
Do your exercises in a comfortable place, away from all distractions and noise.
Lie down on your back or sit with your back straight.
Concentrate on your breathing. Make it slow and steady.
Inhale through your nose. Exhale through either your nose or mouth.
Breathe deeply, filling up the area between your navel and your rib cage. Do not breathe with your chest.
Do not hold your breath.
Continue this breathing pattern for 5 to 10 minutes. Notice the feeling of calmness throughout your whole body.
As you continue to breathe slowly and deeply, relax by doing the following for another 5 to 10 minutes:
Tighten and relax each muscle in your body. You can begin at your toes and work your way up to your head.
Imagine your muscle groups relaxing and becoming heavy.
Empty your mind of all thoughts.
Allow yourself to relax more and more deeply.
Become aware of the state of calmness that surrounds you.
When your time is over, you can bring yourself back to alertness by moving your fingers and toes, then your hands and feet, stretching and moving your entire body. Sometimes people fall asleep during relaxation; they usually wake up shortly afterward.
During relaxation, you can play soothing, relaxing music.
Always give yourself time to return to full alertness before you drive a car or do other activities that might cause an accident if you are not fully alert.

Stain It Up - Ditch the lip gloss this fall and go for a more sophisticated lip stain. Burgundies, berries and reds are the best shades to try as the weather gets cooler. The key is keeping it matte. Apply the lip stain with your index finger and blot with a tissue

Delish-Shish Kabob by Drea

This is a meal for four maybe six.

INGREDIENTS
Extra virgin olive oil spray
Twang - {lemon-lime and chili-lime beer salts} (twang.com)
Creole seasoning
McCormick's Monterrey Steak Seasoning
Italian Seasoning
Onion powder
Garlic powder
Cayenne pepper (if you like hot)
Freshly ground black pepper
1 sm. pkg. skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces
1 sm. pkg. beef country ribs - boneless
1 sm. pkg. smoked Italian sausage
1 lg. bell pepper (red or green - pretty colors)
2 sm. squash
3 or 4 sm. zucchini
1 lg. red onion
1 french baguette (the long hard stick - LOL)
skewers

Clean, cut and season meats separately, either the day before or at least 4hours before cooking. Do Not Mix Meats. Remember to wash hands before handling all foods and in between the (seasoning) changing of the meats.

Cut the meats into good sized chunks (1 1/2 to 2 inch pieces)
Cut the chicken breasts in half long wise then cut into chunks.
Cut sausage horizontally, then cut into chunks.

Place seasoned cut meats separately into zip freezer bags and refrigerate.

Take all vegetables, Wash, clean and cut..., Julienne or however you like thick or thin.
Cut veges when you are ready to cook and the meats are out of fridge and you are ready to cook.

Take your baguette and cut like you are making small 1/2 inch bookends (crustini's)
Spritz some extra virgin olive oil or spread on some butter and sprinkle with garlic or Italian seasoning. Can lightly toast on grill, then add to end of kabob or have at it separately.

Note, regarding Skewers..., if you are cooking in an oven or on an electric grill no need to soak wooden skewers...., if you are grilling outdoors with an open flame, then soak wooden skewers in chicken broth before you put the meat on. (You can soak over night or at least an hour before use.)

Back to business...
Each skewer has a layering of 1 meat and varying vegetables with bread topped at end. You can do mixed meat kabobs, but I would advise to do those last due to cross-contamination. (Never hurts to be careful - LOL)

Side dishes for the really hungry prepared at the same time or right before grilling...
Fettuccine Alfredo, wild rice, brown rice, grilled corn, or salad..., and to top it off with dessert I like pound cake.

I know you know how to make the rest so go get your GRUB ON!!!!

Enjoy!!
