This is just hilarious!

Okay so I NEVER watch commercials because let's face it, we all probably have DVR's and want to fast forward the commercials to get to the show quicker? Right? So anyway, John showed me this one tonight and we stopped and watched it and were totally laughing! This is too funny. If you haven't seen this Old Spice commercial then watch this please, then laugh, then tell me you loved it. Thanks! Have a good day. P.S. Check out the sweet video Johnny posted below. You won't regret it...




Wow!

These kids freaking rule:

P.s...

Notice our striped lumbar pillow on the couch? It's so similar to the one in our new favorite show Modern Family. I was so excited when I found one similar to it because I love the one in the show... Do you love Modern Family as much as us?

Isn't this a cute pic of Carlyle?

Best new show on TV by a mile! This show is so funny!

New painting + lamp

John got me this blank white canvas for Christmas and I've been putting off painting on it because I didn't know what to do with it. I am so not an artist, and was afraid of screwing it up. You really only get one shot at painting it. Tonight I just decided to go for it. I got out my paint and decided to make something simple and abstract. I decided to try and match the colors I have in my apt. and do some circles. I think it turned it okay. I didn't get the green exactly like I wanted, and it sort of looks like a 5th grade art class project, but I'm okay with that. : ) I'm glad I attempted it and I had fun at the same time! I also recently got this lamp that I've been wanting. It's fillable, which is my favorite part. Right now I have some decorative faux lemons in it, but I may change it out to something else or add more to it later on. I love playing around with decorating!

Valentine's Sunday

I had such a fun Valentine's Day. It was a little unusual being on a Sunday this year, but it was still awesome. At church we had our first primary lesson with our new little kids. I think it will be a fun calling for John and I. Then our new home teachers dropped by. After they left, I made John Chicken Fried Rice for dinner. I usually don't cook for John, so this was kind of part of his present. Heehee...For dessert I made Molten Chocolate Souffle Cakes. I think they turned out good. It was such a fun, relaxing day. John got me some beautiful Gerbera Daisies and some cupcakes from CRUMBS. I love this place! They have the best cupcakes! It is located in Malibu by John's school. I'm not sure if they have any other locations... I got John some candy, gum and I made him a card. I included the recipe for the Chocolate Souffle cakes if you want to try them for yourself. They are really easy and they have a delicious chocolate liquid center. I hope you all had a great Valentine's Day too!

Funny Story Time...

So I guess on Sunday afternoon BRITNEY SPEARS came in with her two cute kids! She had 2 body guards with her and she was wearing sunglasses. She wanted to sit in the table in the very back by no one else. Her bodyguards asked if they could use the table next to her to just sit in. Britney came up front to the host desk and asked Melvin, the host, with a heavy Southern accent, "Do you have a cheese and Pineapple pizza." He said "Yes it's called the Hawaiian pizza." She said "So I can get it with just cheese and pineapple?" He then said "Yes...Just have them take off the Canadian Bacon!" She said "Oh I thought it was just called the Cheese and Pineapple pizza?" He laughed and then she went back to her table. Oh Britney... The whole time the security guards were guarding the entrance doors. One stood at the back door, the other at the front entrance. They wanted to see and know everyone that came in those doors. Her waitress said she was nice and Britney didn't order anything for herself. She left Julia, her server, a 5 dollar tip on a 10 dollar check. She is the biggest celeb to come into our CPK! I wish I would have seen her. It's funny because just a few days ago her Ex husband Kevin Federline came in. I guess after I left on Monday, TRAVIS BARKER came in to eat as well. He is a regular. How fun!

Game Day!

I'm not gonna lie... I don't think I watched the Super Bowl for more than 5 minutes, but I did eat all the food and enjoy the company! John and I had a few people over and had a good time. The best part is always the commercials/food for me. I was going to make some football shaped Brownies, but Carleton was already going to bring over some delicious brownies and Whitney and Chris brought over Valentine's sugar cookies, so we made Rice Krispy Treats instead. We also made this yummy cheese and bean dip. I didn't take a lot of pics, but here is most of the spread. I hope you all had a fun Super Bowl Sunday. P.S. John and I got called to be Primary Teachers today at church! I think it will be fun for us.

Celebrity Sightings Round XVIII...

Today at work I look outside and see KEVIN FEDERLINE smoking outside. I tell the host to seat him in my section, but he came in and sat at the bar with a blonde haired girl and another guy. Dang it! He ordered the Spin Dip and the 1/2 BBQ Chicken Salad. His friends shared the new Baja Fish Tacos. I guess he left like $10 dollars on a $50 check. Not bad, but come on- you are a celebrity and have money K-Fed! She did say he was nice. He is kind of a loser, but he does look better than he did. I guess he was on VH1's Celebrity Fit Club and has lost most of the weight he gained. It was fun seeing him. I dropped off his Spin Dip so I could take a good look at him. HAHA... The manager told me that this past Saturday night Michael Jackson's kids came in with Jermaine Jackson! Man- I wish I would have seen them! I would say that it was a good day at work!
