Avril Lavigne - Keep Holding On

I just LOVE this song, it's from the movie Eragon and though I've always loved Avril Lavigne, this is by far one of my favorites of hers. Enjoy!!!

When I was in my early 20's I used to love fridays because it meant that I was going to be staying up late, hanging out with my friends and going to the clubs. The thought of it all was enough to put me in a giddy mood the whole day.

You know what??? That hasn't changed, I still get giddy over fridays, but for different reasons. It's amazing how much a person changes with time, because now I'm giddy over the fact that I can sleep in on Saturday morning LOL

See the difference??? I think we pretty much stay the same just that our interests shift and change according to where we are in that point in time in our lives. When someone would mention partying, going to clubs, dancing and drinking, I was ALL for that....nowadays, I just could not imagine doing that. I would probably be the party pooper sitting in a corner complaining that I'm tipsy after a sip of booze, OR that the music is too loud, there's too many people AND I could be home in bed reading a book.

Does that make me boring??? Some people would say so, I don't think it though, I think it just makes me NORMAL, makes me a mom and wife, different perspectives and different ways of thinking. Now I'm perfectly happy staying up late on a friday night, chatting with my friends online.


I look at pics like the one above and I start getting claustrophobic LOL
Seriously, what are those people thinking??? I mean you stand around there with a drink in your hand and you're bound to get pushed and shoved and bumped into, which would mean the drink would end up on your clothes instead of your mouth. I don't know, maybe I'm getting old, I just can't see that as fun LOL

In my partying years, drink on my clothes would mean we had a good time, but now it would send me rushing home to find the Stain Remover, if we leave it on too long it's NOT going to come out. LOL

I was so happy to see some new faces joining us for the Slow Cooking Thursday, for a while there I was thinking of stopping it because it doesn't seem like many are wanting to participate. So it's up to you guys.....do I keep it going or should we just let it go??? I'm fine with it either way :)

I just finished posting my Pork Chops and Potatoes recipe over at my Food Blog (complete with pictures) go on over and check it out if you're interested :)

Speaking of food, the other night Curt said to me "I think I need to put in for a voluntary tour to Korea, for a year"......I couldn't believe he had just said that LOL I must have had a stupid look on my face because he said "no seriously, I really should because it's the ONLY way that I can ever loose weight, you cook way too well and make really good food, I have no chance in hell if I stay here" LOL
I just had to laugh at that, hey, I'll take any compliment I can get.

I love cooking, what can I say, and I'm always around the kitchen making something, looking through cookbooks or coming up with a new recipe. I remember when I first started cooking I absolutely HAD to stick to cookbooks, I didn't know what ingredients worked well with others so the thought of an experiment or coming up with my own recipe, just scared the bejeebers out of me.

As time went by though, I got comfortable with food (a little too much for my taste if you ask me lol) and now I can pretty much throw a bunch of things together knowing that it will taste good or in the very least, be edible LOL

Well it's time to get some laundry started and finish some paperwork, I hope you are all enjoying your friday....if you're heading to a club tonight, have fun and have a drink for me. If you're staying home like I am, I'll be joining you, book in hand and blanket wrapped around my legs.




It's friday night which means "Homemade Pizza". The kids love helping me make it and it's a way to spend some time together as a family.
Hubby will have his usual Pepperoni and Mushrooms......the kids always want plain cheese pizza, and I have either Ham, Onions and Green Peppers, or a Veggie Pizza.
