Weekend Recap

How was everyone's weekend? Recovered from Christmas yet? Mine was great, especially Saturday. Saturday was all about me! Billy helped me take the recycling off, but I drove so we went wherever I wanted. First stop - Walmart. I wanted to see if there was any Christmas stuff left. It was definitely picked over pretty good, but I managed to find a few things - ornaments, cards, a cute little Santa server with spreader, and a purse cookie jar. Don't ask me what on earth I'm going to do with the cookie jar, but it was only $4.50 so I figured why not.


Then I forced him to go to Sally's Beauty Supply, where I got some more goodies. I got some replacement blades for my PedEgg, a glass nail filer, China Glaze - White On White, and Orly Bonder - I needed a basecoat and this one says it's rubberized, hmmm.

Had a quick look inside TJ Maxx since it was next door. And then to Jason's Deli for lunch and had a gigantic baked potato. We braved the mall so I could go to Dillard's to drool over the Coach bags. My second favorite was on clearance for $250. There was a Bleecker Tote on clearance for $200, but it wasn't black. I didn't get anything. It's easier to dream about having these bags, but when it comes down to putting the money on the table, I start getting nervous.

My second favorite. $250. They had 2 left. Should I have gotten it?


My absolute favorite. $200. If they had it in black (instead of blue), I know I would have gotten it. Oh, well, the search for the perfect black tote continues.

Anyway, the day ended with Starbucks and then Cheetos for dinner! It was a great day. Every Saturday should be 'all about Angie' day!

How about you - how was your weekend? Buy any goodies for yourself?

Hope Everyone Had A Very Merry Christmas!

Wordless Wednesday - Which One Do You Want?

Weekend Recap

I thought this past weekend would be tough, and it was. Friday night was fun though. Billy and I got dressed up and went to a Top of the Rock function. A friend/coworker is a member of the Arkansas chapter of Sweet Adelines, which is a womens barbershop harmony chorus. Billy actually worked with them over 15 years ago, setting up risers for their rehearsals and shows. So, he enjoyed seeing all the ladies again. And the stories he tells! Anyway, there was food, drinks, auctions, and of course, singing.

I made it to bed at 11, which meant I was able to get 4 hours of sleep. I had to be at work at 4 in the morning BOTH Saturday and Sunday. After work Saturday, I bought myself an early Christmas present -


I know it's a little weird to be this excited about a can crusher, but I can't help it!

I was sooo tired Saturday afternoon so I took a nap. A long one. Three hours. Which meant I couldn't go to sleep that night. I think I managed to sleep 2 hours before my alarm went off. Surprisingly, I functioned pretty well at work and wasn't that tired afterward. I finished off my Christmas shopping (yay!) and bagged everything up. I'm totally not a wrapper. Wish I was, I like wrapped gifts, and think they're so much prettier under the tree. But I really don't like wrapping.



And that's about it. Ate a lot of fast food. My plan is to eat anything and everything before my diet on January 2nd. I can't start on the 1st - it's a holiday!

Highpoint - can crusher!
Low - no sleep

How about you? What was your high and low?

Pasta With Peas

It's Food Friday!

This pasta dish is definitely one of my favorites. It's easy, quick, and a one pot meal. And it's delicious!

1 lb penne pasta
1 can cream of mushroom soup
Milk - fill empty soup can
Frozen green peas
1 pkg of shredded parmesan cheese

Fix pasta according to directions. Leave in colander while making the sauce. To the pot, add soup, milk, peas, and cheese. Cook until peas are done and cheese is melted, stirring continuously. Add pasta.

You can certainly use any pasta you want. It's good with tortellini too. And sometimes I slice up some grilled chicken on top.

Enjoy!

Pooba is Great!

Isn't this award pretty? Pooba gave this to me and I'm so excited about it! I have a few regular commenters (which surprises me everyday!) and she is definitely one of those kind enough to show me some bloggy love! Everyone go check out her site. I love what she does on the right hand side of her blog - she puts a pic up of what she's 'enjoying,' 'reading,' 'listening,' 'watching,' and 'wanting.' And she is up to date with it, unlike me and my flickr pictures!

Thanks Pooba!
