He Asked! And, I've Never Been so Happy!

He asked.
Beside a waterfall, walking through a botanic garden.
I cried.

I honestly had no idea.

No date.
My head is swimming.
I'll post when I can...focus.

Oh my!
We're ENGAGED!
And, I get to spend the rest of my life with the man of my dreams.

Seriously? What Creative Gift Ideas!

How cool is that?
Darn cool, says me.

Mother's Day...or
How about a teacher gift?

Or, something for the family dinning room?

Nope, I don't know this person.
Have never bought anything from them.
Just stumbled upon them and I like their work.
Thought I would pass it along :)

Aedriel has much more, too, at her Etsy Shop?.

Oh, I must resist.
Everything's soooo pretty.

Who's Sleeping in Paula Deen's Bed? Could Be You!

Trader Joe's Green Beans - Almost Better Than Funyons!

So, a while back saw these near the Trader Joe's checkout. 
Why not?

I loved them.
I couldn't keep my hand out of the bag as I drove home.
Almost...better than funyons!

One Sunday morning, I grabbed a bag and walked into the living room munching away on them. The 12 year old asked what they were. I said I liked 'em more than Funyons! He tried them, and kept reaching for more.

Now, of course, when his dad came home with milk, he abandoned the beans for some cereal. But, he was willing to try them. And, liked them. Each time he tries something new - when his first reaction is to recoil - I smile.

Bacon Lip Balm and Bacon Salt - At a Discount!

I've been digging through my files of things I want to remember to share with you...
And, I stumbled on this lil bit of yum.
 
Yep - in case your world isn't bacony enough.
And, your sweety feels he just can't get enough bacony goodness...
How about bacon balm?

No kidding.
Bacon lip balm.

It's available from J and D - known for their Bacon Salt

And, guess what?
You can save a few bucks!
Because the same folks - J & D Foods - sell them directly on Amazon!
You can get the J and D's Bacon Flavored Lip Balm and the J and D's Bacon Salt Sampler and keep your pennies in your pigskin.

I love it when distributors sell directly on Amazon  at a discount.
And, now you can put bacon balm in your Wish List for your birthday - ha!

Get out your porky puckers.
Mwah!

My own lil disclaimer:  I just signed up for the Amazon program, so I might make a penny or some such if you use the link above to buy from Amazon.  I'm not sure though, I'm new to this thing.  I'm testing it - the whole "monetizing" thing - we'll see if I continue or not.
