My hips enemy
I think with a lot of women they have the same enemy as I do when it comes to my body. That enemy is chocolate! This is something that is so good that a lot of the times I just can not say no to it. I definitely can not say no to it when it is a Gertrude Hawk chocolate! For Christmas, special occasions, birthdays, anniversaries, anything you can give a fantastic gift basket from Gertrude Hawk Chocolates. Share the joy! Have a look at the website and I am sure you will be wiping the drool from your mouth as well. Anyone want to buy some chocolate fudge for me?

Country Bob's has others beat
I have a little addiction when it comes to sauces, marinades, and condiments in general. I like to try everything and anything that I can in hopes of finding a keeper. So, trying Country Bob's All Purpose sauce was an exciting time when dinner rolled around! When I first opened it I smelled it. It smelled great. Test one passed! You could smell all the spices and just smell the flavors in it. It wasn't super strong but it sure wasn't a weak smell. It was really mouth watering honestly.
Next test, tasting it by itself. I dipped my finger into the lid to try it out. It wasn't overly sweet like some barbecue sauces are and it wasn't bitter like some steak sauces are. I was actually really pleased with how flavorful it was and couldn't wait to try it out on some meat!
My husband and I went to the store and bought some Pork Sirloin to use the Country Bob's All Purpose sauce on. We cooked it on the foreman grill and I poured the sauce on top and bottom of it so that it would get the full flavor of the sauce throughout the meat. When it was done I poured a little bit more on the meat. You can see the finished meal with the sauce on it. It looks so good. I'm getting hungry all over again.

You know when you bite into a piece of meat that is just so flavorful that you just sit back with your eyes closed making the "mmm" noise? Yea, biting into our sirloins with this sauce on it was like that! Exactly like that! It is such a good sauce! When they say all purpose on the bottle they really mean it. I was ready the pamphlet that I was sent with the bottles and they had some recipes in there. There is so much that you can do with it like Baked Beans, a sauce for little smokies, and a lot more that if I listed all of them this posted would be a mile long.
I also used the sauce as a dip for corn dogs. Now, let me explain something that I am sure a lot of people run into while eating a corn dog with some type of sauce. When you eat it and the sauce you sometimes get a stomach ache from the sauce. It seems to overpower your stomach or something. I am unsure as to why but I can't eat a corn dog with ketchup, mustard, or BBQ sauce without getting a stomach ache. This sauce, no lie, did not give me a stomach ache or a sour feeling in my stomach at all. I was impressed and I didn't hold back on soaking the corn dog in it!
So, after all this testing and trying, the smell, the taste, it being cooked with I think that this sauce is definitely a keeper. It's an A+ sauce! The best thing I like about this sauce is that I can buy it online at Country Bob's website. There is also a couple other products from them that I really want to try out. Mainly the Spicy All Purpose sauce. Of course when I get that it'll be just mine because my husband can't eat spicy foods! More for me!

Wordle
I saw this on How To Eat A Cupcake and thought I would give it a try for my blog! It's super simple, all you have to do is type in your blog's URL, RSS Feed, or some words and they make a word cloud that looks similar to mine. So say you type in travel supplies then you would get a whole bunch of words that have to do with the travel supplies in a big word cloud I guess. I thought it was pretty neat.

My goal!
I have a goal and this shiny little mixer on the side is it. Sure, I have a stand alone mixer right now but it isn't like one of these. This one is only $170 and is just what I want. My current mixer doesn't mix the whole bowl like the one I'm showing you. What do you expect for a $20 one right? I love it but I want one of these. So my plan is to save up for it very slowly. If we need the money that I save (which we probably will and the mixer will be put back on hold) then I will use it for what is needed. If I can get up to about $180 (I think that's enough to cover shipping) then I will get the mixer! Present to myself!
Getting Cisco training
My husband, Jamie, has wanted to do a number of different things during the time that I have been married to him and have known him. It has been a wide range of different things but most of it has been around technical and internet things. You see, he is rather a whiz at the internet, programming languages, html, php, all that stuff. I on the other hand am a total goon when it comes to it. I leave it all to him.
Cisco certification is something that he has talked about in the past. It is something that he wanted to accomplish and possible getting a job with the ability to work on the hardware and help other companies out. In fact, he used to have a job where he did basically just that. The only thing he needs to work on right now is getting his certification and tidy it all up.
I just found The Cisco Learning Network which could give him a lot of the information and means that he would need to get his certification. On this website you are able to talk with other people in their forums and
read the different articles that are in the news and that they have posted on this website. There is a ton of information that is available to everyone that is interested in taking a job in his field. They also have different network certification programs listed on their website which range from entry to specialist. Now is a good time to get Cisco certification and landing yourself a good job. Money is tight right now but the IT areas are nice to get into.
