Yogurtland on my mind

Can you believe it... Maui finally has a yogurtland!! We went there the other night and to our disappointment it was closed. Boo!! (well it was New Year's day, so we couldn' be too upset that it was closed). But we finally headed back to Whalers Village tonight and it was open! Woo!!

Up close and personal. Fresh face. No make up. Cheese. \,,,/^_^\,,,/ <-- that's me showing "shaka".. hee hee.

It was empty when we got there.. but while deciding which flavors to try, the place became packed!!

Hubbs and I had a hodge podge of flavors in our cups. I had chocolate, plain tart, cookies and cream, peanut butter, and lemon-lime yogurt and mochi, strawberry, cheesecake bites, kiwi, and one Mother's brand cookie as my toppings.  Sounds like a tummy ache waiting to happen, but I ate the WHOLE thing!! Oh so delish.  My favorite is the lemon-line and peanut butter.

Before we headed to Yogurtland, I made us a simple one pan dinner; fried rice... Kimchee Fried Rice to be exact.  I added in shrimp and homemade portugese sausage.

Anyone else love/like/hate/don't care for Yogurtland? :)

My BFF, Jo (of joaniebean) says I use the e.x.c.l.a.m.a.t.i.o.n. point way too much. LOL. :)

p.p.s. Check out my girl, Shanna's blog Sweet-Art Designs Studio, you can see her awesome creative skills and a couple of the money boxes I've made in the past.

Thank you, WeWearThings

This really must be my lucky week, because I was fortunate enough to win another fabulous blog giveaway. The lovely Issa of wewearthings. announced that I was the lucky winner of the ShopBop - Rachel Roy giveaway. I feel so special that she chose me because of my lovely comment... and it's true I love dressing up or playing dress up for any occasion. It's always better to be overdressed than underdressed. :)

Check out Issa on her blog.  She's got great style, adorable pooches, and is a fashionista whose feet are so lucky to walk in the beautifully crafted Christian Louboutin Very Prive Studded Peep-toe Pumps! Thanks Issa for choosing me, I really appreciate it.

I wish I had a more interesting backdrop in my home to take pics, but I guess in front of my closet will do for now.... agh, my hair is a mess (it's in it's "natural" state, no flat iron action)

Dreams can come true

Dreaming of the day I can "afford" an awesome pair of Red Sole heels. One day. :)

and oh my goodness, even Barbie gets to rock the red soles!.. take a look here. Jealous!

Good night and sweet dreams.

Went to B&N tonight to pick up the Dec. issue of Bazaar and Nylon. Oooo the beautiful Mr. Pattinson. Scrumptious!!

Let's give Thanks

Happy Hammy Day everyone!! I am not a big fan of turkey (hence the Hammy day reference), but I sure do love all the fixings -- stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, baked beans, cranberries, and my mother in law's famous pumpkin roll!! That dish alone makes me wish it were Thanksgiving all year long. Yum.

I had to work today, but I am thankful for that because that means I have a job. :)  I am thankful for many things... {and this is in no particular order}

*my husband, Elisha.  He is the most understanding and PATIENT man I know. He's my soul mate.
*my parents, they embody a "perfect" marriage.
*my grandma Ovie, she is the strongest woman I know... physically, mentally, spiritually. She's 85.
*my sister, she's the best big sister ever. She gives great advice and puts things into perspective.
*friends, they are all lovely and I'm lucky to have them.
*Pooma, she is the best doggie ever! even if she pees when she gets too excited. ^_^
*mascara, my lashes would be lonely without it.
*coffee. my morning pick me up.
*cookies. all kines!
*nail polish.

*my health.
*Lahaina, it's a great little town to live in.
*my closet -- even though it's not a BIG as I'd like it to be, maybe that's a good thing.

I have lots more to be thankful for.. but really, I'm thankful for my life! I wouldn't change anything past or present about it. It's molded me into the woman that I am. Can't wait to see what the future holds.  Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving day and night.  Hug someone today. Tell someone you love them. Take care. God Bless.

Love, S

Momma Cindy's pumpkin roll. Oh so delish! (taken with my Blackberry, sorry so grainy, I'll post a better pic later)

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip cookies made by yours truly.

We went to my parents friends home for Thanksgiving dinner.  Got to watch Coraline. What a cute little movie. Tim Burton is awesome.
