Works For Me Wednesday

Lofthouse Sugar Cookies

Have you tried these wonderfully, decadent, thigh-thickening, butt-busting, no longer able to button your pants, 180 calories per one cookie, pure yumminess yet???

If not, you need to stop and smell the sugar!!

These bad boys are so soft, so incredibly delicious that they melt in your mouth, almost like cotton candy and hot Krispy Creams combined! It is so hard to just eat one!

Then after you read the nutrition facts, you'll fall to the floor in the fetal position and cry yourself to sleep, because you realize that after eating the whole box you just consumed enough calories to last you a lifetime!

If you have not had them, try 'em and after you wake up from your sugar induced coma, let me know how much you love 'em!!

Coffee-Mate Peppermint Mocha Coffee Creamer

Yep, this works for me this Wednesday, actually this works for me each and everyday of my life, that is, if they would sell it everyday of my life!! Ughh!

Unfortunately, they only sell it around this time of the year, and it is so hard to find it on the shelves. Last year I would stalk Kroger's and when they had it I would buy every container and then drive across town and buy all their containers also! Yep, I am that person, the one that buys each and every container of something, leaving the other people wanting something yummy, not able to get any! I am not the only one, because it is rare to find this stuff! I actually purchased so much of this last year that I had enough to last until March! PIT-A-FULL!

My question is, it's this good, and people buy it off the shelves, tell me why Mr. Coffee-Mate, why do you not make it all year long??

Naa Naa Naa

COMMERCIALS

Yes, we love commercials in our household and at times they are better than the actual show you are watching!

Yesterday, Joey wanted us to come into the living room. He was hysterically laughing about a commercial that he had paused on the DVR. You might of seen it already, it is the new Arby's commercial.

There are two guys and one is telling the other about a $5 lunch and he did not believe him and told him he would marry a goat if he could get lunch for $5, (I am totally paraphrasing here) too funny. I have searched the net for a clip of the commercial, but I have yet to find one yet. but here are some pictures of it.

Of course, we are goat people, and we raise market goats and up until recently I milked a dairy goat twice a day for milk consumption, so we having no life being goat people, get so excited to see commercials with goats in them.

For some odd glorious reason they are using goats more and more in commercials and ads lately. When searching for the Arby's clip I came across several, Honda for one, had a goat in one of their commercials for their Element SUV and of course we have all seen the Alfac commercial, which is my favorite! If you have not seen it, check it out!

Another all time favorite commercial, so I do not discriminate again non-goat people is this one.

So here is my Works For Me Wednesday, commercials, we all love them, just rarely see them anymore due to the wonderful DVR!

Works For Me Wednesday

CANDY CORN!!

Tempting, shameless, tiny, sugary, calorie busting, thigh thickening little boogers! Yep, I am talking about candy corns. Each and every year, they sit in their little clear round containers or one pound bags, taunting me.

I try to ignore them and walk quickly by (hoping to lose an ounce by my brisk steps), telling myself, I really do not like them! They call me, by my name, and I just can't take it any longer! I pick them up, justifying my actions telling myself, I do have that cute little clear pumpkin jar that is dying to get out of the closet and besides, I am buying these for hubby, because he loves them so! That's what I tell myself, anyways!

Then I get them home, put them in that cute jar, and it looks so festive. I eat one, then another and after that one pound bag of candy corns turns into two pounds of extra weight on my thighs, I tell myself, there is always New Year resolutions!!

I LOVE CANDY CORNS!!

Fixin' Attitude's & Saving Gas!!

My 16 year old DJ, has had this major attitude lately....you know the kind, I am so smart, I know all about how the world turns around me and parents...phttt!! So this morning I put his butt on the bus!!

Yep, my all knowledgeable 16 year old, had climbed down the social rung by one, by reducing his humble, knowledgeable self to the ranks of bus riders!! Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!! This is a good morning for me!!

I would of snapped a picture of the monumental event, but I was so preoccupied smirking and laughing, I could not get my thoughts together to grab the camera!! So my Works For Me Wednesday is two fold today, not only have I taken a stand and showed my son a little something but I am saving gas in the process!! Today is going to be a great day!!

Works For Me Wendesday

So what works for me today......COFFEE! See this huge mug of coffee?? The picture is very deceiving, this baby actually hold almost three cups of coffee..well three cups of my coffee, about 16 oz to be exact!

So why is this such a big fix for me today, you ask? Well, this morning sitting at my computer desk, doing a little blog stalking, I have been having a pity party. Yep, gasp, say it is not so...a big 'ol, poor me, pity party!

Usually, Jeremy will crawl out of bed and make me my measly little cup of coffee, with my fresh squeezed goat milk, barely any sugar to make it sweet (just like I like it)! Coffee is a morning staple and I love it, could not do without it!

But this morning, while Jeremy is sleeping, me sitting here having my party of one....I went to the pantry, pulled out the yummy blueberry creamer, added a big heaping scoop of it to my big 'ol coffee mug with two spoons of sugar!! My usual, not so sweet coffee has been replaced this morning by this yummy sweet monstrosity of pure sugar. So good, just what a girls needs to complete a pity party of one.....I think I feel better already!
