WB’s Two Broke Girls Nominated for People’s Choice Awards 2012 : FAVORITE New Comedy : I AGREE!

The People's Choice Awards 2012 nominees have been announced! The WBTV has several nominees, but one of my favorites is Two Broke Girls. Kaytlin and I just happened on the first showing of Two Broke Girls. The character Max caught our attention immediately. She is cute, funny, blunt, to the point and not afraid to speak her mind. She is a working class girl that has never been handed anything. Then Caroline walked in. She is a high class … [Read more...]

Nutrisystem Take Two… Starting Over : Tips for Surviving Thanksgiving

I’m not sure if you noticed or not, but I haven’t posted in about a month. Kaytlin and I were somewhat “on a break” from Nutrisystem. When we started our “break” we had both been on program for nearly a year and wanted to try our hand out “real life”. We did fairly well and the break was nice. Halloween week gave me quite the scare with a 3 lb gain, but magically it disappeared the next week. Both of us have yo-yo’d up and down a few pounds and … [Read more...]

Send Cheer to Military Families with Cheerios : Help the USO

Send Cheer to Military Families with Cheerios this holiday season… It’s such a difficult job to take care of my family of six, and my spouse comes home from work every night.

Their families must rise to the challenges of service as well. Sometimes a … [Read more...]

Save Big & Still Have a Beautiful Wedding Dress

As a little girl I had imagined (and even planned) my dream wedding. A long white flowing gown, flowers everywhere, my sister and best friends by my side. When I got a little older and had actually met the man of my dreams, I began to realize how expensive weddings really are. In the end, we decided to save our money and elope. I still experience twinges of regret for not going through with the big planned out wedding. Mostly I just miss the … [Read more...]
