<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The only time I have to read is before bed, right now I'm reading a collection of short stories from Jack Ketchum I found on a top ten disturbing novels website. It's pretty disturbing, the stories so far deal with twins who have sex with each other and then turn into zombies, a mother who blows her sons head off and other stories of rape and incest, not for the faint of heart!</div>

<div>
and by bulge I mean my big fat ass!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
My kid is almost 2, the tired old baby weight excuse doesn't cut it anymore. I can't blame it on that anyways, I only gained about 17 pounds with her and escaped without a single stretch mark. My pound packing days started when I stopped breastfeeding and only went back to work part time. I'm a victim of all day grazing. I've always been a curvy chick, and don't get me wrong, I <b><i>love</i></b> my curves. They're just getting a little too curvy these days, like curving over the side of my jeans when I sit down. I believe the term is "muffin top". </div>
<div>
Cute. My husband says I'm still beautiful, but he has to tell me that, I make his dinners. I have managed to lose 12 pounds since spring, so that gives me some hope! I've platued now, so I actually have to work at losing the rest, running errands and taking bailey to the park isn't going to cut it anymore. I have to set some rules for myself, start eating healthier. I guess it wouldn't kill me to work out a few times a week either. bah! I can do this! I have to do this .... our vacation to the beach is next month and you better believe I'm going to wear a bikini. </div>

I found this recipe on pinterest and used it as our fathers day dessert sunday and it turned out perfect, easy cake to prepare when you want something fast with a homemade feel to it!<br />
<br />
ingredients:<br />
<br />
*2 cups crushed fresh strawberries (I used a potato masher)<br />
*1 (6 ounce) package strawberry flavoured jello<br />
*3 cups mini marshmellows<br />
*1 (18 ounce) package yellow cake mix (I used french vanilla and it was heavenly)<br />
*cool whip <br />
<br />
directions:<br />
<br />
*preheat oven to 350 degrees<br />
*spread crushed strawberries on the bottom of a 9x13 cake pan (I didn't have one so I used a bunt pan instead) evenly sprinkle strawberries with jello powder, top with marshmellows.<br />
*prepare cake mix according to package then pour over marshmellows. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.<br />
*cool for 15 minutes, run knife around the pan to loosen sides, flip onto serving plate.<br />
*top with cool whip and store leftovers in the fridge.<br />

I was stuck this year for a fathers day gift idea. Being a pinterest whore solved that problem! Welcome to the wonderful world of salt dough, an easy and inexpensive gift idea that the kids can help with. It's basically mix, press, bake, voila! My hubs loved it and I plan on making these cute prints for family christmas gifts this year. Being a whore pays off ;)<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>1 cup flour</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>1 cup salt</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>1/2 cup water </b><br />
<b>(seriously, that's it)</b></div>
<br />
*mix ingredients in a large bowl. You might have to play with it a little, if it's too sticky add a little more flour, if it's too crumbly add a little more water.<br />
<br />
*form a nice smooth circle about an inch thick and place on baking sheet.<br />
<br />
*have kiddies press a hand or foot into it, you might have to do this step a couple times until you get it right, just remold and press it out again.<br />
<br />
*if you want to hang it use a straw to poke a hole.<br />
<br />
*bake at 250 degrees for about 3 hrs or so, bake time varies on oven and thickness of dough, tap it with a knife or spoon, if it makes a hollow sound it's done.<br />
<br />
*let it cool then decorate with acrylic paints or glitter, I didn't have time for this step but I'll be doing it for the christmas crafts.<br />
<br />
*revel in the fact that you are one crafty bitch.<br />

I've got a new look, my old blog was starting to feel like a 15 yr olds myspace page, not what I wanted! So I went with a more clean and simple layout and my posts will be mainly recipies, crafts/DIY, makeup, blog hops, and other housewife/motherhood goodies. I hope my readers will enjoy my new blog! Don't worry, I'll always be a bitchy housewife.Andreahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08472813850722170901noreply@blogger.com0
