Winter Warm Up!! About Time!

Its about time for a winter warm up!  I am so excited that we will hit (hopefully) 32 degrees tomorrow!  What, oh what, will I do?? Hmm...it would be nice to walk the Tank (my doggie) and wear him out.  Poor little guy has been homebound and totally stir crazy since the blizzard hit last week.  We go potty and come right back in.  This morning, it felt warmer,so we took a walk down the street (all the sidewalks are still 2 ft of snow) and he had a great time.  The tank was so happy to get out and explore!  I am hoping to walk some side streets and drop off my new catalogs to some neighbors.

What are you doing this weekend? I can't wait to make heart shaped sugar cookies tomorrow.  Sounds cheesey, but I want to learn how to make and perfectly ice cookies with old fashioned Royal Icing (which is made with egg whites).   I also have a great contest coming up for Campaign 7.  The winner will get a gift bag worth $125!  More on that soon.

Enjoy the warm up if you live in the Midwest!!  Whoo Hoo!!

the nightmare (of getting married)

How embarassing! I woke up from a vampire nightmare around 5:15 am. Got up, walked around (to make sure there were none hiding!), grabbed some water and went back to bed. Woke up again around 7 from another nightmare--- AB was going to propose!
Now, that shouldn't be a nightmare...that should be a reason to celebrate. Its something I hope for everyday....and something I hope to one day experience. In my dream, we were in some kind of mall, and he had gotten a flyer of some sort from a jeweler. He said we needed to talk, and I saw a glimpse of the flyer---which was full of pictures of different engagement rings...and I ran!
I ran to find my mom and tell her. I was scared he wanted me to pick out my own ring (I don't want to, thats his job and he has great taste!). I was scared I wasn't ready. After I found my mom, we got lost. Then, I went to a small kiosk looking for a girly product, but I had no money, so I stole it! It didn't make any sense, but I woke up just as scared as the vampire nightmare. The only good thing about the vampire nightmare -- I know I stabbed one of them and they turned to dust. I also had a sword in my hand and waved it around violently and expertly, in my opionion.

Am I scared AB might be ready? Am I not?? He already told me one day we could have a dog...I know he is coming around to that, but....whats wrong with me???

Maybe taping some lipstick samples to some catalogs will help me ease my mind. Yes, the catalogs I put out at the grocery stores have samples. I think samples are the best way to get new customers.
