hey guys! thanks for all the comments on my hur yesterday. i seriously have no shame in posting grossticity pictures of myself sans makeup or dignity. deej would be so proud to call me her own.
biznass first. a couple of you had a few questions yesterday and i’ll address them like..now!
where did i get the popcorn seasoning? well. a long time back in 2009 the wonderful people from kernel seasons sent me a trial package. you can find my review here. BUT you can order them easy-peazy on their website and i have seen a few flavors in walmart here and there. i definitely recommend checking out their flavors and giving a few a try. they have lasted me for-ev-er.
is the keratin treatment expensive? well. i was lucky and my hair salon was having a tuesday special on it and it cost me a whopping $180 because i have long hair. but normally at other salons it costs somewhere in the mid to upper $200s. no i’m not a baller. i’m poor and yes i realize this is a splurge but it lasts 6-7 months and if you stress about your time consumption for hair then i recommend it. plus the more and longer you get it the less you have to get the treatment.
hope these answers helped!
on a fun note i received this oh-so cool award from naomi the other day which was super sweet of this gawjuss fit foodie ;) thanks girl!
zee rules are as followed:
1. list 10 things that make you happy.
2. try and do atleast one of them everyday
3. tag 10 bloggers who brighten your day!
mmm 10 things that make me happy..
1. the wedding central tv station. i seriously love seeing people who are in love. never been in it. but i love all things wedding! it’s a weird thing i know. but i could watch we tv and the wedding station for hours and hours.
2. hugs. seriously in life i don’t think there’s anything better then a good bear hug!
3. pedicures. i lied maybe a seriously good pedicure ranks slightly above a good hearty bear hug.the pedicure must come complete with intense rolling chair massage and the water must be scoldering hot.
4. big crispy apples fresh crisp apples sprinkled with cinnamon. yum.
5. speaking of apples being from new yawk. i am always so proud to embrace my new yorkness. i have an accent, i can’t stand when move slow, and i’m someone who gets angry and the people who spend more time looking up then walking straight. i can’t help it!
6. uh hello? popcorn. air popped popcorn with cinnamon in all its carby gloriousness could possibly be the most underrated snack know or not known to mankind.
7. chivalry. i know this girl would agree with me but come on ladies chivalry is not dead! and come on men! open doors, ask girls out and do the whole shibang :)
8. a great pair of boots. my family owns a shoe store so i value the awesomeness that comes with a solid pair of boots. i have probably way to many boots then a girl should have and i won’t lie that most of them aren’t from the pop’s store. :-/ but boots oh yeah they make an outfit and they’re probably the only good part about winter!
9. when your ipod reads your mind. seriously i think it’s the most amazingly cool thing when your ipod knows exactly what mood your in. come on you know you love it too.
10. blackberry messenger smiley faces. i think i use them too much. my favorite is the hug one and the “talk to the hand one” i also overuse the “thumbs up” and “thumbs down.” by the way bbm is the only way people should be allowed to communicate.

Aww thanks for the award!! Now I just have to remember to post it! haha.
And I'm poor too but somehow I manage to spend tons of money on protein powders. Hey we all got our priorities right?? ;)
And I've been wanting to make that chili for like a year now! Is it good?
owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww thanks for the awardness- you are so sweet <3! I could agree with you more on #2 and 4! In fact, I just had a massive apple and it was awesome :). Love the new glasses. I had a scooper dinner in honor of you last night. I mixed up a massive amount of pinto beans with salsa and seasoning and ate it with a broiled tortilla and tons of veggies. So good.
Things that have made me happy lately- Josh!, Frank!, Starbucks, the color yellow, and packed group fitness classes
i love your martini glass & 10 things :)
Thanks for the award!!! You're too kind. I'll admit, I'm bad about posting awards, just a heads up....but I TRULY appreciate it, and I'm glad I put a smile on your face :) You always put one on mine too because your blog is TOTALLY you, and nothing else. You are hilarious and open and you tell it like it is, I love it.
I didn't know your parents owned a shoe shop. Very cool!! I bet you have some awesome shoes, or am I just making assumptions?? I mean, my dad is an accountant and works with money, but a lot of money is not something we necessarily have!
I love extra crisp, and juicy apples too. And one thing that has made me happy lately, hmm...I guess the snow!! It's falling fast right now and I LOOOOVE it!
awwww thankzzzz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am smiling so largely because the most lovely haired and hilarious lady has deigned to give me an award. No kidding. I love. That's what's making me happy right now.
And apples? Got one for a snackie poo today! Might have to sprankle some cinnamon atop it.
Thanks for the award! MMM I love apples and cinnamon too! Oh and yes pedicures make me a very happy girl too. I need one asap!
I've been meaning to make that chilli! Is it any good???
These days, sleep has been making me happy!
yay so happy you did the award! I love seeing people in love too! I watch say yes to the dress and always end up crying when they show teh wedding at the end! its just so cute :) and they always look so beautiful!!
pumpkin cake oatbran NEEDS to get in my life asap! it looks so good
I am having left over chili tonight too!!
goodness your eats for the day look yummy! what a cute award! it put a smile on my face
I saw those seasonings at my local grocery store - should have picked some up! Chivarly is not dead, it's the KEY to any relationship with me. Where's Mr. Darcy!? I take that back because he was sass-a-frass. Thanks for the tag, pooks!
HAHAH I love 'dan good' because I know people who say it like that in real life!
"popcorn. air popped popcorn with cinnamon in all its carby gloriousness could possibly be the most underrated snack know or not known to mankind."--LOL and i totally agree!
The chili. YUM!!!!!
The hair. $200 for half a year is a freakin value. Wear it proud girl :)
dudesieeeee those 'tini glasses are outrag! Between Deej's taste in dishware and Van's waffle skills ( wink wink ) I want your 'rents to adopt me.
1st comment here, ever... woah. I had to proclaim my lalalove for #1!! I'm watching Say Yes to the Dress right now! That chili looks amazing and super easy, I've been craving it for days... time to bite the bullet.
That oat bran looks delish. Why do I never make the oat bran that i really do have in my house? Oh, well.
I know what you mean about the ipod reading your mind. I was once emailing about a cd promo for someone and my ipod was set to random and of course one of his songs came on. Always happens just when you want to hear it.
Ohhh I might order that popcorn seasoning...thanks for the info =)
one thing that made me happy was spending some alone time with my mom today
hi honey pie! ok, so i am behind but i did some catching up. love your hair. love the table setup workout layout thang. think you should try backwards on stairmill.. you can do it! i have the same type of green tea photo in today's post.. umm what else? oh, duh, loving the popcorn abundance! and love you!
oh, # 7. Guys should get a hint..nothing impresses girls more than practicing some good old chivalry. Definitely gets my attention! :-)
Mmm chili!!
Ah man, I am SO with you on #7,8, and 9.
-I pretty much peed my pants when a guy brought me a rose on our first date, I was so happy.
-I just got some boots the other day, and they can be described no other way than delicious.
-I consider Nadine the Nano my therapist, she knows me so well.
LOVE that you ate out of martini glasses. So fetch.
