Month: October 2007

  • For those that like Chipotle burritos …

    One free burrito per customer may be redeemed annually at participating Chipotle locations on select days:

    Halloween October 31’2007. Come dressed as a burrito. A typical response to this requirement is to dress up in aluminum foil, creating the appearance of a burrito still in the wrapper.  Other
    ideas that work or worked previously – (something of foil visible on
    your body).  Size does not matter it can be a foil crown or a foil hat or
    foil wrist bands.

  • Now that’s what I call a custom.

  • They’re All Mine!


    Having the need to run a few errands on Saturday, I stopped by Wal*Mart and searched
    high and low until I found these two boxes.  We are happy. 
  • This is my futile cry out for help …

    It’s October.  Fall is here (well at least now it feels like autumn), the leaves are changing, birthdays are being celebrated and soon comes Halloween.  Other than being rather big to participate in trick or treating, I do enjoy the once a year indulgence of massive amounts of candy corn. hmmmmm candy corn *drool*  Recently I happen to stumble upon one of the most incredible products out there: Act II Candy Corn Popcorn!  What a dream come true!  I love popcorn.  I love candy corn.  Why not merge them together to make candy corn flavored popcorn?  Genius!  The popcorn in itself isn’t bad.  It smells really good while also making the house smell like candy corn.  Though unfortunately, there is only a marginal candy corn taste to the popcorn.  Nonetheless it’s still great.  The odd thing is that the Act II website does not mention this wonderful product and I’ve only seen it at Wal*Mart.  Since my original purchase of said product I have yet to see it again at our local Wally World.    Even with tons of Halloween products there, there are no boxes of Act II Candy Corn Popcorn to be found. 

    Why oh why! 

    I must now begin my search up and down the East Coast looking for Act II Candy Corn Popcorn before Halloween passes us by.  Then they’ll probably have turkey and gravy flavored popcorn or eggnog popcorn.  And we know that’s just gross. 

  • aaaaah.  They’re so cute(Keeping with the recent Star Wars theme)

  • OH MY GOSH!  A LIFE SIZE X-WING FIGHTER!!!  The way the wings break apart was just like in Episode IV: A New Hope.  Watch your back! Fighter’s above you, coming in! 

    I suddenly feel the urge to watch Star Wars right now.

  • For some reason I feel the desire to purchase this and that  for the folks that play guitar in our church worship team. 

  • Yesterday we celebrated Chewy’s birthday!

    We started the celebration off by having an Oreo Cookie ice cream cake
    from our local Bruster’s
    Ice Cream parlor
    .  As you can see Sharka is ready
    with his trusty cake cutter in hand.
    We spent a few hours hiking around Sugarloaf Mountain near
    (or in) Dickerson, Maryland.  Then picked a handful of apples at Butler’s Orchard. (Only a few because I’m allergic so I can’t eat them)
    Then dinner at L’oustalet, a Continental French restaurant located within the Kings Farm community.  Chewy had the pork and I had the Australian beef.  The dessert souffle wasn’t that great but other than that I’d give it a 4 out of 5.
