My Favorite Things

My Favorite............

Things
(not the obvious 3 F's Faith, Family, Friends)

Apparel Item - V Neck T-Shirts

Breakfast Food - Vanilla Yogurt and Granola

Kind of shoe - Tennis Shoes

iPhone app - Words With Friends

Music - All over the map on this one - right now my favorite song is The Time in Between by Nicole Nordeman

Dinner - Black Bean Chicken

Perfume - Eternity

Drug Store Purchase - sunscreen

Candy - gum drops

Ice Cream - peppermint

Movie - Singing in the Rain

Word - indefatigable - it is a good word - I like to say it

Time of year - I love all of the seasons - I get to Spring and think - I love Spring, then I get to Summer and think - I love Summer - and so on

Accessory - a good ball cap

Vehicle - my van - appropriately named - The Roach Coach (it is pretty dirty but the name actually came because I don't like feeding my kids fast food so I pull up places and open up the back and pull out stuff like crock pots and laptop lunches etc so my husband started asking what the roach coach was serving up that day.)
I really do love that van.

Non-alcoholic drink - diet vanilla coke

Adult Beverage - white wine - I am not terribly picky although I do really like Riesling

Television show - I dunno - I like a lot of crazy stuff like Three Sheets and Toddlers and Tiaras but I would say that my favorite regular people show would be The Big Bang Theory - that one makes me laugh.

Well - gotta run now - if I think of any others I will add them! :)

Go visit Toddler Awesome - love her themes!

A Long Story Short and a CSN Review

Well folks - the worst is over

the school year is drawing to a close

have I been absent from the blogging world because of anything terribly dramatic?

No

Just busy with my family - no time for the computer

Well - now - here I sit - with two of my children quietly playing in the game room, one still sleeping and a little time on my hands.......

hmmmmm what to do?

CATCH UP!!!!!!!!!

First things first - Ashley from CSN stores has been SO awesome to me - so awesome!

First she contacted me and let me look at some awesome things - things like

THIS

or

THIS

or what I finally chose

THESE PRETTIES

I chose them, she sent them, and do you know what I did? I broke one - almost immediately.

Now since I am reviewing these I feel like I should type in the exact name of them so they are iittala Essence Set of Two 11 Oz. White Wine Glasses - ES950457

They were really pretty but I am not joking - very fine. They come with a little sticker on the top and although I really am not freakishly strong I basically crushed the glass in my hand while peeling the sticker off.

These are not the hardiest wine glasses I have ever seen.....

Just saying......

What I can say is CSN is AWESOME.

I emailed Ashley, told her what happened and BAM she just sent me a new one - just like that. I really do love my new wine glasses - I am just MUCH more careful with them. This particular pair of wine glasses is basically now - my holiday glasswear. :)

I cannot say enough about CSN though

This morning, from the quiet of my house, I shopped for....

a new bed for the Buddy

new sheets for my room

a new food bowl for Penelope the Pug

and randomly

a pie pan

Pretty much you name it - they have it. Super fast shipping, great customer service, hastle free returns.

Well - off to visit all of your blogs! If you don't get a comment from me today - leave me a comment and say - very nicely - hey Holly - what the heck?

Foursons

Dear May,

Sorry I missed you - where did you go?

Holly

Dear skin,

I am REALLY sorry and I am REALLY trying. One would think that SPF 70 would do it but apparently not.

Holly

Dear small children,

Could you please stop growing - just for one second? You guys are getting so big! Your Mom loves you a lot and is really glad that I get to be your Mom.

Holly

Dear Bowheads Blog,

Thanks for allowing me to be cheesy. Appreciate ya!

Holly
