Weekend Recap & Menu Planner

Where do the weekends go...we had a fun one that involved a cookout with friends, a baby shower for my friend, Brooke, a trip to watch Michael play soccer, playground and what weekend would not be complete without cleaning, laundry and yard work!

Shortage

Being the simpleton I am, it be-hooves me to ask a lot of questions. Maybe I'll come to an understanding, maybe I won't, but people are less likely to spin a line if you want a couple of facts to back up what ever excrement is dribbling down their chin.

Apparently there's a housing shortage in Australia, which in turn must mean there is a housing shortage in Tasmania. Well, if you're a real estate agent and you want to snag that sale and justify that price tag, just throw that one into the mix. Putting the fear of god into a buyer, subtly hinting their commodore station wagon could be their long term abode, is a good way to close the deal.

I had the misfortune of stumbling across this blog, which as it happens, is probably infinitely more well read than mine, but thanks to the 4 people who've stopped to visit.

Weekend Recap & Menu Planner

We have had a great weekend. Friday night, we had a fun dinner out to surprise my friend, Jessica, for her birthday! We went to The Daily Kitchen & Bar which is very popular and has the coolest decor!



Saturday morning, we hit the soccer fields bright and early. This is our third week and Clyde still won't play. Suggestions welcome on how to overcome this! Help!


After soccer we hit our neighborhood playground.



My sister and brother in law went out of town for their anniversary, so we watched my niece and nephew for the afternoon. It was rainy so we saw Despicable Me 2! Again! We took Gammy this time so it was new for her. They love it!

I had a coupon for Sally Beauty Supply for 15% off your entire purchase so that is where I headed first. I ran across these "bird" hair dryers by Conair...there was gold bird (the cheapest), then yellow bird (next in line in terms of price), then silver bird (the most expensive). Silver bird was on sale and with my coupon it would come close to the price of yellow bird so I went for it.

This may sound completely ridiculous and I am sure most of you will laugh when you read this...but this hair dryer is life changing. It is really awesome!  Most days, I left the house with frizzy hair that I couldn't get smooth with products. And now it is so smooth and soft. The dryer comes with a straightening attachment that works really well after you have most of …
