Woohoo! More giveaways :)

It's time for giveaway blogs again! Yay! I'm really excited about the ones I have found this week.

Woodland Belle Tiny Twig Pins from Laura DeLuca
I'll be the first to admit, my hairpin collection is small. Okay, okay, pretty much non-existent. I've got plenty of clippies, but really cute hairpins are hard to come by. At least until Laura at Laura DeLuca introduced me to Woodland Belle. I love all things related to nature (which reminds me, I really need to post a picture of my evergrowing sweet potato vine - it's gorgeous!) Woodland Belle has 4 different collections, all of which are handcrafted by Mai McKemy. She does fantastic work, and you have a chance to win these amazing Tiny Twig hairpins! I also wanted to show off my favorite item, the Tiny Woodland Terrarium Mushroom and Blue Morpho Butterfly Necklace, which I hope to purchase soon :) Stop by Laura's blog, Laura DeLuca, to enter the giveaway, and check out Woodland Belle's site, Woodland Belle, to see all Mai has to offer!




Polaroid My Memories Suite from Got Love, Been Married, now where the hell's the baby carriage?

As someone fighting infertility, I am drawn to other bloggers dealing with the same thing. After reading the title of her blog, Got Love, Been Married, now where the hell's the baby carriage?, I knew I had to stop and read. Jenn and her husband have decided to adopt after some heartbreaking losses. My hubby and I have also been talking about adoption if using donor sperm doesn't work. Everything I have read talks about the Family Profile/Essay/Scrapbook. It goes by many names, but it's essentially the same thing. It's a book to introduce you to potential birth mothers. I have thought about doing actual scrapbooking, but then it hit me - if I have to make more than one, that'll take forever. Well, that's where digital scrapbooking comes in. Jenn used Polaroid's My Memories Suite, and she raves about it. In fact, she's doing a giveaway! Yay! So head over to Jenn's blog, Got Love, Been Married, now where the hell's the baby carriage?, and enter!

Food Allergy Test Results

I was in for a surprise when I got my food allergy test results this past Wednesday. For the few days prior, my thoughts were wrought with fear that I may be allergic to garlic or nuts. I even started designing my garlic and nut super-villain tattoos. Thankfully those weren't on my list. The shock came with the 29 other items on my list! Moderate allergies Baker’s and brewer's yeast Pineapple Vanilla White mushroom Sensitivities Broccoli Buttermilk Carrots Casein Celery Cilantro Cinnamon Cod Dates Iceberg lettuce Kiwi Lamb Millet Onion Oregano Parsley Plum Potato Raspberry Rosemary Sage Strawberry Swiss cheese Turkey I was upset to see so many yummy foods on the list, including my go-to meat, turkey, and some of my usual spices. I was glad to see celery and onions, though. I’ve detested them for years and I always get laughed at for hating onions. Now I have a legitimate reason for hating them! I can live with this list. Well, I...

What's Your Song? Thursday - Aug 18, 2011

Stressed out this week. Busy and exhausted. I've been singing Annie to keep myself happy. I like this video, because it's so interesting to see how Annie was cast over the years in various countries. Enjoy! Join the link-up at Amber's blog and checl out her giveaway!

Diet and School updates

Dietary Change update: It's been about a month and a half now since I went vegetarian. It has been so easy for me. I really thought it was going to be hard, but I don't even miss meat that much. I'd be losing weight if I stopped eating peanut butter m&ms. I ran out of those last night and don't plan on asking Hubs to buy me any more. I hope to start seeing some weight disappear then. Thanksgiving has been the first holiday since I made this change, and I figured I might cheat and eat a little turkey. But Dad said that he's making a ham instead, and I hate ham, so it's a win-win situation! I'm making my usual from scratch green bean casserole - yum! School update: I finished my Anatomy and Physiology course with a final grade of 96. Woohoo! I've started my next class, Natural Heath and Nutrition. It focuses on the foods we eat that are beneficial for us and I'm really excited to learn more. This is exactly why I wanted to study nutrition! I ...
