Picture of Chicken Corn Soup We Made

MMMM... It was sooo good. Thanks Lisa for the picture.
Call you later.


CHICKEN CORN SOUP.

Lise came over last night and we made Chicken Corn soup.
We made a pot full of it, and all that ws left this morning was just enough for a side dish for bobs lunch.
I had to make a sandwich for him too!
Any how... the soup was REALLY GOOD!
Now my sister in law wants me to make it every week end. (I don't know about that).
I swear we were gluttons last night we all had more than one bowl full!
I thought I had made enough for an army, but we were all hungry and it tasted so good.

SO thanks to Lise, for showing me how to make on of my Hubby's favourite soups.
(mine too)
I think lisa will send a picture for me to post soon.
Check you all later!

Ipod Touch... Stupidness.

I love my IPod Touch. I bought it instead of buying the IPhone. I thought there was too much bullshit involved it trying to get a phone from the states. So I bought the touch. It's just as cool but I wonder what people are thinking when they make apps for this little toy of mine.

I jailbroke it using ZIphone.
If I were to write a review for the process I would say:
  • ZIphone made it easy
  • It worked first shot
  • I love my touch more since the hack
  • You Tube has many instructional videos on how to jailbreak using the ZIphone hack.
If I were to write reviews for half the shit I've downloaded on to my touch I would say THEY SUCK ASS.

Seriously... What is this Aquarium, and butterfly crap.
I understand they are meant to help you waste time but Ugh.
Here are some great apps:

IWoman
  • It Helps you track your Aunt Flo
  • Keeps a good history so when you have your gyne appts you have information like duration, flow, pms and other important facts ready for the DR.
  • Helps you plan around your monthly visitor because it predicts the next couple of months ahead of time for you. (if your not reg. then this is maddening :P)
SummerBoard
  • This is awesome because it runs themes for you.
  • Vast amount of themes for any taste and age group
  • In the picture above I am using the Louie Vuitton theme. It's wicked.
Any Games
  • You can find a ton of games to dl on your touch/phone
  • my favs are Lexitron, Tris, and Domino
Mx Tube
  • I like this because I can scan through vids on You Tube and dl them on to the touch and view them even if I'm not any where near a wifi sig.
  • can dl more than one vid simultaneously
  • good for both touch and phone
Respring
  • This app allows you to "reboot" the touch/phone with out loosing settings.
  • Good to use when changing preferences.
There are way too many USELESS apps to mention. I've tried them and then wondered ... Who thinks of this shit???
Lise Keep sending me the good stuff you little teckno junkie you!

Pasteis de Nata


This is what I want to make this week end... :D

It's this custard filled pastry that I tried for the first time at Nade's boyfriends house. They are incredible. We had four for the road, and they were gone almost as soon as we got out of their drive way.

I'll let you know how it turns out.

Stupid Happy Shows.

So why do these shows make me happy. I love watching America's Best Dance Crew, and So you think you can dance. It's a totally guilty pleasure. I LOVE it. They make me happy.

Its the most amazing thing watching these kids do the stuff they love to do and do it so well. The stuff they do on these shows is absolutely incredible. Some of the tricks are AWESOME.

In ABDC I love Super Cr3w. Their shit is amazing. I always smile when I get to see them do their stuff. I also really liked Supreme Soul.

I kinda thought that the last 3 crews would have been Supreme Soul, Super Cr3w and either Fanny Pack or So Real.

I remember watching an episode of SYTYD with Lise. It was the best hour of our lives... well sort of. It's so easy to get lost in shows like that. For an hour of the day you can forget your own bullshit and watch something that makes you smile.

Who am I?

This is me...
I started riding a while back. I was a tom boy as a child, and loved trucks, and bikes and all the things all little boys loved.
I had transformers, and was totally interested in technology.

It was a natural progression. I liked fast cars, and then found things that could go faster and were cheaper. MOTORCYCLES! I dated guys who rode. It was nice, but being a control freak I really wanted to be the one at the controls. Eventually my friend Liz and I got our licenses. We rode together almost all the time. Liz and I have some pretty funny, and scary stories from those crazy nights out. When we started riding there were only a few other girls out there that rode. Even fewer that rode well. (not saying I'm awesome or anything) I remember Liz's first bike...
She called it Smartie. It was a blue Honda CB1 (400 cc) If I were to describe it I would say the bike was closer to a standard than a sport touring bike. My first bike was a Yamaha Fzr 600. (1989 i think) For the longest time we were the only two girls that would ride all over the City.
Liz's second bike was this awesome Yamaha YZF 750sp (sp stands for Solo Pilot) It was this neat forest green colour.

I loved those days. Nothing made me happier than getting my gear on and getting out there. As soon as the snow melted in the spring I was out there. I rode some years until December... (long johns, balaclava and little gloves under all my other gear kept me warm)

I guess I was kinda hard core in that sense. I would ride at any cost. Hot or cold it didn't make a difference.
I rode when I was sad and it made me happy, I rode when I had to think about stuff, and I felt better and came to decisions, I rode when I was bored and found friends and excitement.
Long rides, short rides, I rode to work, and to meet for coffee. I rode to the mall, and to the dentist... :D

It was all I could think about. After the accident, I got back into it as soon as I could. There's a great story there. I tell you about it some other time.
When my last bike was stolen I hadn't done my M exit yet, and my license expired. Now I am JUST A G DRIVER. ARG...
I want to go back, and get my M Lic. back. I guess I'll have to wait untill next year. Meh.

I like to have a good time with my friends. Especially when it's a birthday party for Moi at Rocky Mountain High... I can be a goofy broad sometimes. I think this picture demonstrates some of my goofyness.
There are tones of these pictures scattered all over the internet thanks to Lise.
Especially the ones from Niagara Falls that lisa loves to share with the whole world. Good times ...
I remember jumping on the bed.

Then I remember laughing my ass off... Can you tell what happened? I swear... It was all good until I heard this THUD... Lise had hit her freaking head on the ceiling. I am not a good friend. I laughed... I laughed hard. (thanks Cess for the photo evidence!) Now that I look at those pictures I can't believe I never noticed Lise Holding her boobs. lol.

I love my BIG ASS TRUCK! I drive a Yukon Denali xl. I bought it because I work in the event coordination field and can can carry all kinds of stuff for clients. I am used to getting looks from people when I rode all the time, I still get them now it's because I look so small in my vehicle.

My husband and I owned a tow truck. We recently sold it. my husband worked it for years. He was sick of the bullshit in the industry, so we got him a 9-5. He likes it better, and he's not nearly as stressed out any more. Mind you he took a pay cut, but I prefer that he's healthy, so far we're making ends meet.
I like my men to look mean, but be the biggest sweethearts. I think every one should have a "Bob"
There have got to be a tone of pictures of Bob giving people the finger.

I guess that's enough about me for the next little while.

Ciao.

Crash Birthday.... LISE


So this coming week. Probably on Wednesday I am going to go to T&co. I think I am going to be purchasing my "Crash" birthday present.

So I am thinking about the Somerset ring (wide). I have been thinking about this one for a while... But I don't know for sure.



I also really like the new one they have, its the Tiffany notes collection.... I like the scrolly writing on it, and it's not typical. I especially like it because it's new.
I think this one is going to be a hard decision. The only thing I would actually be worried about is the writing on the notes ring. Would it fade over time? I mean I hope not, but I could just see it happening.
:D

The price isn't going to make the decision for me either. They're both 215 CAD...

Lise help... :D
I mean I have a profile set up with the tiffany's website, and it there are LOTS of things that I would be putting on a wish list for my husband to purchase for me, or things I would like to buy for my self.

LOTS of things... :D


I actually kind of like this black bean Elsa Peretti thing...

It's neat and different. I'm torn. I like the look of it, and it would look awesome under a white top or a button down with a collar. (been a while since I wore one of those.. :D)



I mean I could just as easily buy a charm for my bracelet. There's this one titanium charm that I feel would match me and my personality, and my titanium arm. I would probably wear the bracelet on the Ti arm. Kinda symbolic no?
I like it.
I first saw it when my friend Stephanie wore it to work the other day.
I was quite impressed.
She thought it was onyx but it's Titanium.
I actually considered getting a Ti ring, but god forbid anything happen they'd have to cut my finger off!
Knowing my luck, I thought it might be best to forgo the Ti ring altogether,
They don't call me crash for nothing.
