What happened to My Brunette Reality?? Anyone know?

Ahh, I'm Back

I've been in a funk lately, can't really pinpoint why, but just have been feeling frumpy and grumpy. But tonight I was able to meet a girlfriend for dinner and margaritas . . . I'm in a much better place now. Sometimes you just need that girlfriend time to get back on track. I've missed meeting my girlfriends for dinner and drinks - I really need to make a point in 2010 to do that more.

What's for dinner?

Help! Starting next week, 3 nights out of the week the kids will be off having sports practice (cheerleading and soccer). Anyone have any suggestions for quick bites to fix and grab before heading to practice? Or suggestions for dishes that I can fix on the weekend and reheat during the week?

Happy Friday! Sunday the temps is to be in the 60s - WOO HOO!!!!!!

On a scale of 1 to 10

I'd give Savannah Sweet Tea a high 7/low 8. It really does taste like sweet tea, but with too strong of a lemon taste. I don't like lemon in my sweet tea. If you do, then you will really like this new wine. Now don't get me wrong, the 2 bottles that I bought will not go to waste - lemon taste or not!!
Have a great week!

Happy Friday & Relax, Southern Style!

Has anyone tried this? I just got this email from World Market and if this wine is as good as they make it sound, I'm heading to World Market this weekend to buy a case of it!!

and win this book!
In this humorous handbook, Shellie Rushing Tomlinson, host of All Things Southern, reveals the all-important lessons Southern Mamas teach their daughters. Readers will discover why blue eye shadow is trashy and learn to interpret regional dialect like the Southern Mama APB, a bulletin translated on Southern streets as: “Give your heart to Jesus, girl, because your butt is all mine!” Shellie carefully breaks down the teachings behind those famous manners and social graces through her firsthand observations and dry wit. Here’s everything you need to know from how to cope with the unexpected, compete in the Mr. Right Game Show, and raise children—to how to keep that marriage knot tied tight over time. Woven with quotes from real Southern Mamas and sprinkled with recipes and other Southern secrets, this book’s a bona-fide celebration of all things south of the Mason-Dixon Line.

5 months and counting

till our Summer vacation!!! I cannot freakin' wait. We will be spending a glorious week on Fripp Island, SC, day trips into Savannah, GA - hello Paula Deen! - and Beaufront, SC and then on our way home we will be spending the night in Charleston, SC. If anyone has any places or restaurants that we should check out, please let me know! I've never been to any of these towns except for Charleston, so any insight would be appreciated!

Happy Fat Tuesday!
