Rapid Wrinkle Repair Day7

Ok so, what do you think?
I think my skin looks better and feels smoother, but aren't those wrinkles?
Why must I ALWAYS fall into the 5 to 20% of women that this stuff will not work on. Lol!
Honestly tho, they are not as bad as they were.
We will check back in another week and see how it's going.

Stowaway

Rode all the way to work with me.
How that little bugger didn't get blown off I have no clue.

Tropical storms...

.....make for some beautiful skies

Tomato Gravy-for my girls

One of the brats has gotten together with one of the other brats and requested that I post my recipe for tomato gravy on the blog.
I guess that is better than writing it down and 'someone' losing it. (you know who you are)
It's all very simple and when I tell you your gonna go "ah hell that's so simple"

I warn you I can only make this in large amounts but it shouldn't be hard to adjust for a smaller meal once you have the hang of it.


Tomato Gravy
1 can of whole peeled tomatoes (if your not lucky enough to pull up at mom's house with your little basket in tow to pick your own;0)
1 package of bacon
1 large onion
Milk ( don't ask how much, you'll see if you keep reading )

Dice your onion and sauté it with your bacon until the onions are almost clear. Or until you have enough grease floating around in the pot to flavor up the tomato gravy really good.

Pour the can of tomatoes into the pot with the bacon and onions and cook on medium till the tomatoes have cooked down a bit. Stirring occasionally
Hint: the longer and slower they cook the better they will taste. I have been known to slow cook my tomatoes for four or five hours, or cook the whole meal in about an hour.

Add milk, I don't measure so all I can tell you is I add milk until it turns a little orange. Fresh tomatoes will be lighter with the milk than canned.

Simmer just a little while longer to get the milk flavor settled in.
Hint: if you want your gravy thicker, thicken with flour and water. We like ours somewhere between soup and gravy.

Serve over home made(yeah I went there) biscuits or rice.

That's it! Simple simple and I better get some great big "I tried this and it was great! Mom!"

Rigs To Reefs

I ordered PB this new Guy Harvey t to father's day.
Isn't it cool!

Tramp stamp

I've had mine since before they were cool, then not cool, then cool again.
Mine doesn't sit as low as most girls have them, I didn't want someone to have to look at my crack to see my tattoo.
It's a blue rose with a vine entwined with the stem, and it says Purdy.
I love mine!

Rapid Wrinkle Repair Day 1

Well I've been using the serum for one day. Probably not long enough to see a difference.
What do you think (besides DAMN! that girl needs some make up!)
I like to think I see some difference, but I'm pretty sure that's hopeful thinking.

Trying something new

Do you see those lines?! Ok let's call a duck a duck, those wrinkles?!
I watched a commercial about this Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair.... 
Well this is what my face looks like now, it says it only takes a week to see a difference.
Let's see!

New Bling

Got this in Panama City.
What ya think? Should I change my name to Gypsy Rose?

Alas! Tis Goodbye

We came, we ate, we swam, we played at the beach and hung out with friends.
I drank too much beer and not enough water.
And now it is time to go.
It's ok, only two more weeks till Miami!

Fly by

Sushi and a fly over

Made it!

The drive actually went pretty well and I made it in 3hrs and 20min. Not too bad.
 Only one little patch of rain and a pain in the ass truck driver.
I made it just as the boat was coming to the dock.

Here we go again!

Just in case you didn't see it on Facebook

Isn't it great!

For those busy mornings

I have to eat breakfast in the morning. I'm almost as bad about breakfast as I am about my coffee.
This was actually a great idea from PB.
Pancake mix in a jug,and a 19 dollar waffle iron!
5 minutes in a busy morning! That's just awesome!

Sun in Pascagoula

....over there

Uh-oh

The tomatoes are so full and juicy they are splitting before they ripen all the way!
I can't decide if that is a good thing or a bad.

Welcome back



After a very rainy stressful trip back home, I found out that it's just as hard to get back to Mobile as it was to get out
Two miles of backed up traffic to get through the tunnel at 5mph.

Time to hit the road



A nice overcast day to make driving easier.
Hopefully the rain won't hit Mobile till I'm home, tho the weather channel say probably not.

Feeding turtles

Chas, the kids and I found turtles!
This big guy is an alligator turtle.
They really have no fear and were coming right up to us.

Finally

Sunshine in Panama City

Bay Pointe



Looks like a quiet place. Just hope we don't see any wild golf balls!
The cutest thing I've seen so far? When you get off the interstate at exit 97, Ponce De Leon, all the mailboxes are backwards!
They all face away from the road and have little turn abouts. Too cute!

Dinner

Besides Hunts, this is the best place for raw oysters

Welcome to Panama City

I am probably the only person in the world that doesn't mind this rain.
PB works every day while he's here, except.....

This tunnel!!



Mobile loves her people so much, she makes it as hard as possible to get out of town.
Tunnel backed up for over a mile!

Best Job Ever!

See that, that is the best place to work!
My boss kicked me out and told me to hit the road! Woohoo!!
Heading out early!!

Before Panama City



Yeah, this is what I do all day.
I stare at this monitor and these numbers till my eyes blur and they start to make sense.
It's not a bad job at all, but go figure,me, who hates math with a passion, dealing with numbers all day.

This is gonna be fun!

I have an Iphone, I have an Ipad.
I have the blogger app on both, and I am ready to go!
This is going to be fun!
Lots of pics, the weird, the wonderful, the "in between".
I am very excited to get started, and what a perfect day for it.
Panama City!! here I come!
