Hunger Games Movie

 This past weekend we decided to purchase The Hunger Games. I knew my oldest would like it. I would of loved to read the books but maybe when she gets a little older that will be one of our summer goals. I was worried once speaking to my mother about my 7 year old watching the movie since there is a lot of kids killing kids in the movie but then I thought about it. Harry Potter has alot of killing also and she was fine with that one.
  In the movie there is a lower class and if they get more food then they are given their names get put into the bowl. The rich pick 24 names. If you seen the previews the older sister volunteers once her younger sisters name gets pulled. They then train for the games over the next couple of days. Finding out the boy from district 12 has a crush on the girl from district 12. They use that to get sponsors. They need sponsors in order to get items in the game. Its pretty cruel how the kids get treated. It turns out good but I won't spoil it for anyone. Then again it left me wanting more.
Its a really good movie. If you haven't seen it yet, you should.

Dinner was very yummy..

skin tags...

When I was pregnant with my girls I ended up getting some skin tags. One fell off on its own Sunday. It was hurting for a couple of days like it was irritated when I would rub my hand across it. It became a scab and just fell off. So I decided to try an idea I read somewhere on the internet about tying a string to cut off the circulation. On Monday 7/9/2012 I wore a string around it the whole day. Every now and then I pulled it a bit. Yes it did hurt alittle but not too much. The next day I cut the string really short. By day three when I woke up I noticed that the string was gone and the tag had become more brown. 7/12/2012 It was a hard scab and I just kept rolling it until it just fell off. One more skin tag down. My husband goes to the dr and pays to get them off. I get mine off for free. lol

I want to wish....

My daughter Katie Happy 7th Birthday. I am very blessed that you are part of my life. You are smart, beauitiful, sweet, and a good girl. I hope you enjoy your day.

Dare to compare.....

                         VS              
         

My oldest loves frozen waffles. She eats them almost every morning for breakfast. I decided to compare Aunt Jemima buttermilk waffles with Eggo buttermilk waffles. Aunt Jemima at Winn Dixie is usually on sale more often and cheaper, about $2.00 a box. This past week I picked up a box of Eggo waffles for $3.29 plus I received .05 cents fuel perks which = $1.00 if you fill up your tank to 20 gallons which I never do. Aunt Jemima waffles are hard even after toasted. At times I even had to use a steak knife to cut them. Eggo waffles I never had that problem they are always just right. So I decided to write to the companies and let them know what we thought. I will have to get back to you when they respond but we are sticking with Eggo waffles until Aunt Jemima changes something in their recipe so they are not so hard.

1 of my favorite websites....

Free Rice.com. You can learn new things while ending world hunger. Every little bit helps. I didn't notice it until my 6 year old was playing and pointed it out to me but you can also change subjects. Humanities, english, math, chemistry, language, geography, science, SAT. My little one likes to see how much rice she can get. Great site.

I would like to wish......

my sister in law Laurie a Happy Birthday!!! Hope you have a great day and enjoy your dinner tonight at Sakura's.

Free stuff!!! Its like getting a present in the mail.

Working Out

After being asked if I was pregnant again at a recent party, I have been trying to do some kind of work out. I love, love my kinect on the xbox. Dance Central is the game that I have been playing. It helps me drink alot of water. In between songs while they are adding up points I grab a sip of water. Its a fun way to work out. When I win all the games I will get dance central 2. I also do twist every other day. Of course sit ups when I remember. Anyway today I ran across this website with many different free work outs. Changing things up every now and then is a good way to keep your work out from going dull. Have fun and happy workout. I will also try this drink recipe. Its suppose to help your metabolism and its something different then drinking just plan water all the time.

The Crunchy Roll

Yes I was craving sushi again and ate it. I ordered the Crunchy Roll for $4.50 and asked them to cut it into 8 pieces even though it was still a bit too big I was able to chew it a bit better then before. I really enjoyed this one. I love the little containers it comes in also. They are so pretty. The crunchy roll has tempura batter (crunchy part) , avocado, shrimp. Topped with sesame seeds. I got a to go menu so I can keep track of what I order and how it taste. I did add to my list want to try. Snow crab roll and a smoked salmon roll. My oldest wants to try sushi so next time I will order the cucumber roll for her and ask for them to cut it into 10 pieces. Until next time.
