No stuffed “I’m bannanas for you!” bright red monkeys here (although I was caught in line behind dozens of people last night purchasing them- I just needed some butter!). I didn’t purchase something for Garth this year…we sure value making here in the elle & gee world and so I spent last night and [...]

….and I can hardly wait! I used a recipe out of ye old Betty Crocker Cookbook, similiar to the one found here.

Tonight I plan to do some scrapbooking and watch some movies.
Yay lazy Saturdays!

Saturday I had the pleasure of eating in four different cities.
I had cereal and yogurt in Spokane, WA.
Asagio toasted bagel with cream cheese and cranberry juice was had in Seattle, WA.
Houston, TX found me eating a Schlotzky’s sandwich and Smoothie King smoothie.
Garth took me out to eat and the Olive Garden for dinner in Pensacola, [...]

LeeAnn, my sweet neighbor, and I had a smoothie date today. She was born and raised right here in Pensacola, and has never had a smoothie! *shrugs* I’ve never had sweet tea. We shoved peaches, strawberries, yogurt, and pomegranate juice into the blender, mixed it up, and enjoyed it on the [...]

holy moly! With the exception of a few phone calls, a stand-up dinner in the kitchen, and a trip to the store, making this video was all that I did today! (should I make a video about the video making that I do?!)

loves!
laura. =)

xoxo!
