I eat , sleep, drink, breath cupcakes lately.  Not a bad thing if you like cupcake, which I do! I am constantly looking up cupcakes on this site and that site.  Here an there and everywhere.  I and always talking about my cupcake business this and my cupcake business that.  My poor husband has just about had it I think. He is such a patient man.

I’ve been talking to my ‘business partner’ and we giggle like school children (which is funny because she is a freshman in high school and I am in my thirties not a freshman in high school, hahahaha) about how we want to get a little shop and decorate it all cute in hot pink and have everything ‘cupcake’.  From the curtains to the switchplate covers.

Yeah, you read that right.  They make cupcake switchplate covers, pretty wild, huh? That’s what I thought , too! So, the next step for us is to go and see a man about a license and see what all that entails.  Just because some day I wanna do more than just person to person sales out of my kitchen (I’m happy to do that for now, but some day…) I’m hoping and praying it only entails a little paperwork and a little elbow grease and not a lot of $$ cause that I don’t have a lot of.

So, some prayers would be appreciated and if you’d like to help in the $$ department,  I’d be happy to give you my PayPal address  

Thanks for Stopping By!

One thing I’ve never heard of before, personalized coins. Yes, that’s right, you can buy coins that have just about anything on them.  Of course, you can’t spend them.  They are obviously for collecting purpose’s only.

I thought for all those genealogy buffs out there it might cool to get your family crest on coins and give them to your family for Christmas gifts or something fun like that.

What are you buying this year for Christmas for your loved ones?

But one thing I find a little irksome is that back in the day when I would have found plus size maternity clothes helpful, you couldn’t really find them anywhere.  Not ones you wanted to wear anyway.  You could find plenty of them with loud, wild prints that made you look as big as the side of a barn, but who wants to look like that?

Now I can find really cute clothes that make me look like the radiant mother-to-be that I am  (if I was) and not just some bigger-than-a-barn heifer who can’t keep her hand out of the cookie jar! Yeah, I just said that, for real!

So, go get yourself some cute looking maternity clothes, or not, it’s your choice… 

See Ya!

On the other hand, sometimes you don’t want to buy cheaper jewelry.  My husband bought me one of those pretty mother rings from a local retail store and the stones kept falling out.  We kept taking it back and they kept replacing them.  They didn’t give us any problems about replacing them, but finally I just returned it and got my money back.  But for the record, The ring wasn’t that cheap! We spent the same amount you would anywhere else you would buy the same ring! (Okay, maybe not quite as much, but still)…

The point is, some things (flour, sugar, butter, some soups, some jewelry, some pasta, napkins,  etc,) you can buy random inexpensive brands or whatever happens to be on sale at the store when you are there. Other things (chocolate, cream soups, certain pastas, eggs, lunch meats, etc) you have certain brands that you buy because they are known to produce a good quality product!

Thanks for stopping by, Catch Ya Later!

Some cards give you cash back.  Some give you gas.  Some cards offer merchandise as rewards.  Whatever you choose, you are sure to find something to your liking.

More often than not these cards have no annual fee to worry about and they even offer fraud protection.  And, you can get a great low introductory rate on all your  balance transfers from other cards to one of these reward cards!

Some friends of  ours make almost all their purchases on a rewards card from a major retail store.  Each time they buy something they earn points which they can spend on things in the store.  When they get enough points they go and spend them in the store or online).  So basically every time they buy gas, groceries, toilet paper, they are earning points to buy Christmas and Birthday presents or whatever else they want to spend their points on!

It’s great! I need to get one of these!!

So, I was trying to come up with what I would spend a little bit of money on if I could.  Anything I wanted.  Would I spend it on make up? purses? jewelry? unlisted shoes?  And then it hit me!   I know exactly what I will spend my money on!!

I am going to spend money on my new cup cake business!! I need so much stuff for it! I need boxes (for transporting from parties) and carriers (for transporting to parties) and a new bowl for my mixer and….the list goes on and on, and I’ll get it all… little by little! 

Life is Good , I am Blessed  and I hope you are too friends,

A friend of mine from Montana used to own a pair of redfeather snowshoes.  She would walk all over in the winter time with them.  Just for fun.  And exercise.    I always thought that was a cool way to get exercise in the winter.  That and cross country skiing.  I’ve done that before, But I’ve never used snow shoes.  I think that would be fun.

HHHmmm…now I wanna see my friend, and go to Montana, and go snow shoeing…

OK, TTYL!! BYE!

I find myself having aches and pains that I didn’t have before.  Saying things I didn’t say before.  Did you read the title of this post, for the love of Pete? Or that last sentence?!?

What is this world coming to? The other day I was reading the ingredients on the back of a can and I had to hold it like 2 feet away from my face to read it, like a little old lady.  Next thing you know I’ll be buying a pair of those hideous reading glasses off the end cap at the local drug store.  You know the tortoise shell ones, or the bright multi-colored ones, made to look like stained glass.

It’s all becoming so clear to me.  I’m.Getting.Old.People. and I do.Not.Like.It.One.Bit. but what can I do, its better than the alternative, I guess. 

Carry On…

Of course, I heard that about last year, too and it wasn’t that bad.  So, I guess we’ll see.  I mean, we got snow, but I don’t remember it being all that terrible compared to years past.

I am going to be prepared though.  I’m gonna go get me some of these really cool heated gloves I found online.  Those will keep me warm all winter!!   Gonna have to stock up on batteries, though…

Carry On

If only that were true…

I came across some pretty sweet  michael kors watches I wouldn’t mind tucking away in my jewelry box.  Although some of them are pretty expensive, they look like they are pretty well made and they do have a free shipping offer!!  Might make a nice gift for that special someone in your life?? 

As always dear friends…

I know some people have the mentality that “Hey, I have the money, why not spend it?”  Um, NO!!  That is not me! I am all for saving money anywhere and everywhere I can.

So, when I asked a friend of mine, “where can I find the latest laptops?” He told me about looking on some of the top online  sites.  So, of course, I got right online and looked and sure enough, I found lots of them, and for some pretty good prices.  So, if you are in the market for a laptop, just follow the link!!  I think they probably have what you’re looking for!

You’re Welcome! And as always…

They say, “I thought about YOU when I bought this gift.”   It’s all fine and good to buy someone a random gift and I’m all for the gift card.  There is a  time and a place for every gift.  but a personalized gift is just…..special.

I like to peruse this one site where you find different kinds of gifts.  Everything from personal retirement gift ideas to baby gifts.  They have shirts, mugs, golf balls, a little of this and a  little of that, it’s great.

Hey! Maybe I’ll find something for the boy for his birthday there!!
