Over 100,000 page views. Unbelievable. Seriously, it is!

I just wanted to say thanks for stopping by. Because, I never keep up with my blogaversary or when I've hit certain numbers. But I happened to check my stats today and saw that we've blown past 100,000 page views!

Wow.

So, thanks for getting to know me and letting me get to know you. I meet the nicest people here.

You rock!


P.S. I know you didn't read this.

Six Lesbians On A Couch

We could have fitted more.

I had nine women over for brunch and football. That's what some of us lesbians do on Sunday. Sometimes.

One made omelettes to order. You would LOVE her!
One brought a fruit compote with cake. She's the healthy one.
One brought homemade French Toast Casserole. OH. YES!
One made hash browns.

I prepped for the omelettes and made this:

Williams Sonoma Pecan Pumpkin Butter Spread

1/2 jar of
Williams Sonoma Pecan Pumpkin Butter
1 block of cream cheese
3 strips of bacon, chopped into small pieces and browned
3 T. toasted pecans
3 spring onions, chopped

Mix the pumpkin butter, bacon pieces and toasted pecans together. Pour, or rather dump, over a block of cream cheese on a pretty plate. Top with spring onions. Throw some crackers on there, too.

I called it "Turd on Cream Cheese." And they ate every damn drop! Scraped it off of the plate. It really was wonderful and tasted MUCH better than it looked.

I'd have taken a picture, but then you'd have never even tried it. It looked THAT bad. A spring of parsley would have only made matters worse.


I don't even want to talk about Titans Football. At all.

I'm Sad


One of our employees who's from Mexico is going home. For good. I'm going to miss him.

In the beginning he spoke very little English. That was eons ago. Now, he's fluent. And for all of this time, he's been trying to teach me Spanish. I've failed miserably.

That's how we became friends. I 'hola' him, because we're a family business and he's like family.

I'm gonna miss him. Say a prayer or think a happy thought as he takes a 36 hour bus ride home to San Luis Potosi. It'll be tough, but I bet it's been tougher being away from his grandchildren.

Buen Viaje, Roga!

Straight Girl Sex

Johanna Dray

I've never done it with a straight girl. Mostly because, well....I've never had the opportunity.


I wonder if it's really that fabulous?



Tell me.
Is it?

Starbucks FREE Birthday Drink

No, I didn't get mine, either. And it kinda pissed me off. I mean they SAY they're sending me one if I put my date of birth on their form.

I did what they asked.

My birthday came.

My birthday went.

I googled it. Nobody knows anything. Nothing on their website about how it works.

IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY, PEOPLE!!! MY birthday. And Starbucks didn't get me a present. Trust me, if you was as addicted as I am, and visited these people several times a week...you'd expect something. Even if it was just a little cup of Skinny Cinnamon Dolce Latte.

So I wrote them. And I said:

How do you expect me to believe your tales of Global Responsibility, Environmental Stewardship, Community Involvement and Ethical Sourcing when you don't even send me my birthday gift like you promised? (or something like that)

They sent back a form letter. I hate form letters. But that's what I got for my birthday.


In regards to your inquiry, you should receive your Starbucks Card Rewards birthday beverage postcard within 30 days before or after your birthday depending on when you registered. We recently mailed the first round of birthday postcards, which covers all customers who signed up prior to September 20, 2009, who had a birthday in August or September. As a special surprise and delight, customers with a birthday in August will still receive the postcard even though it was prior to the launch of this new benefit.


Warm Regards,

Jonathan




Well Jonathan,

Perhaps you should explain that you're just giving away a free coffee for adding your birthday and registering your card. Because sending me a gift 30 days after my birthday is well...it's late is what it is.

A Very Late Latte.

Not Fit For Humans


First off, don't google "rip your head off." Trust me on that.

Today, I don't feel "right."

It's.

I'm.

Hormonal.

So, since I have nothing nice to say....

Head on over to Vodka Mom's and enter her giveaways HERE and HERE.


P.S. Two teenagers just walked by and obviously decided NOT to come into my offices. Smart boys.
