Fleet Farm Fun

So Michael and I took a nice trip up to Fleet Farm in Men. Falls/Germantown area last night. We stopped at Cracker Barrel for dinner....and got some fine home cookin!

We bought a few camping items to use this summer with the new tent that I got Michael for his Birthday. We plan to do quite a bit of camping this year, so we are excited to get ready for it. And the tent is big enough for those of you who want to join us on some camping adventures!

Woot Romance

So we've all gone to woot.com and checked out their deal of the day, however check this out:

We Now Pronounce You Man, Wife, and WootLove was in the air last Friday as Logan Buell of Black Mountain, NC proposed to his girlfriend Bethany Rice in the most romantic way known to man: through a Woot product description! Our staff worked with him to nestle the big question in the writeup for some cordless phones. After he and Bethany checked Woot together like they do every morning, Logan presented the ring in a refashioned Woot box for maximum matrimonial style. We wish those kids nothing but the best! Get your hankie ready and read the whole heart-tugging story.http://www.woot.com/Blog/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryId=2261http://www.woot.com/Forums/ViewPost.aspx?PostID=1183922

Morningstar Farms

So my sister got me hooked on Morningstar Farms products.

My favorites so far are: Black Bean Burgers and Breakfast Sausage Patties.

Today for lunch I will be trying out their Tomato and Basil Pizza Burger. I like to bring these to work and put them on Toasted bread....delish.

Here's a link to their site if you are interested and searching for their products and recipes!!

Free Day does not equal Fun Day

So I took my Niece to the Free Day at the Milwaukee Zoo yesterday.
*BIG MISTAKE*

I'd rather pay full price than to deal with the parking, and thousands of people who were there.

However, we still had a good time, and my Niece loved seeing all the animals!

I just don't ever recommend to attend the free days, especially when the weather is super nice out like it was this past weekend!

:-)

Beautiful Weekend Ahead of Us

I am really looking forward to this weekend.
Michael and I are taking my mom out to lunch down in Chicago tomorrow, then we're cooking out at our friend's new house tomorrow night. Then Sunday I am taking my Niece to the Zoo.

Enjoy the weather everyone! I will be for sure!

Chicago

Chicago was soooo much fun this weekend.

We ate dinner Saturday night at Sushi Samba http://www.sushisamba.com/top.html

Everything was soooo good!

Then we went to Club 720. We definately got our dance on, and this place was a LOT of fun!!

Fun times!!!

I hope to get down to Chicago more often!

Lush

So my sister got me hooked on LUSH which is a brand of fresh homemade soaps and natural cosmetics. The only place where we have seen the store was in Vancouver, however, this weekend we checked out the new store in Water Tower Place in Downtown Chicago. It's so awesome to see that this store finally opened up in the US! You need to check this place out if you haven't already!!

This weekend my sister got me some Herbalism face cleanser and I picked up some Figs and Leaves Body soap!

:-)

mmmm...Nutella

So while over in Paris, I re-discovered my LOVE for Nutella! I had it in Crepes, however, simply on toasted bread is my favorite. Who can't resist this yummy treat???

Paris Pics

I still haven't uploaded all of our pics from Paris, however here are a few for you to enjoy!!

Bubble Tea

So last night I met up with 2 very good longtime friends who I have known for practically my whole life. We went out to eat at an Awesome Korean BBQ restaurant, where we grilled our own meat on little hibachi grills.

Afterwards we stopped for Bubble Tea at an awesome Cafe:
Liquid Fusion
http://www.liquidfusioncafe.com/index.htm

I got the House Fusion Tea, which was absolutely the best!!!

Why aren't there cafe's like this in Milwaukee!!! We are totally missing out up here!
The only downside to this place is that it was a MAJOR High School hangout.....but that wont' stop me from going back.

I do think I recall East Garden having Bubble Teas, but those do NOT compare to this place at all!!

I'm Back

Sorry that there were no new updates while in Paris. Michael was too afraid to plug his laptop in to the adapter over there as it made a LOUD buzzing sound when he did, so we never got to charge it up. Our hotel did have a computer downstairs that you could use, for 2 euro every 15 minutes, but I tried that once and got super frustrated because the keyboards are different over there so I felt like an idiot trying to type!

Now I will get back into the swing of things!!!
