No pesticides...just the pests!!

Warning..you might get completely grossed out...

I try and buy organic whenever possible..it's better for you right. Last week I bought this...


Yes super yummy organic corn...we went to make some cowboy caviar tonight and Steve found this.


Thank goodness he put the corn in a strainer first..Imagine if someone and eaten a damn frozen worm. So I guess when you buy orangic you aren't getting pesticides but you might get the pests..NASTY

Loving the new locks....

Salem has been begging me for months to let her color her hair dark. I finally caved in and let her do whatever she wanted with her hair. This is what we ended up with...


Thanks Amy you did a great job! Salem is thrilled and so am I. I hate doing hair!

More things to love...

Since it's February the month of love..I thought I would share some of the things that I just love...

First Victoria's Secret Drenched in Pink body and shave wash...hello can you say amazing. It smells fabulous but gives you a close smooth shave. Top if off with the lotion and you will be in heaven. You can get it at their stores 2 for $20


I cannot say enough about the Swifter line of dusting products, but the Lavender Vanilla is to die for..makes me want to lick my table!

These little beauties are automotive towels that I got at Costco. You can get a pack of 36 for $13. They are reusable and clean like nothing I have ever seen.

And last but not least Mr. Clean Lavender Vanilla & Comfort, hands down the best multi-surface cleaner.


Just sending some love..hope you enjoy!!
