Sweet Treats

I have pretty much finished the mantel headboard.  Notice the theme-  Birds.  I will probably continue to antique the mantel until I get exactly the look I want. This bed is in our guest bedroom.


I cut open my first good watermelon of the season and it is SOOOOOOOOO GOOD!  From 7 to 11 this morning I have eaten the other half.  My stomach looks like a watermelon.


I bought this Slushy Magic cup at the store a couple of weeks ago.  It was sorta expensive, but well worth the $14 I paid!  You freeze the "magic ice cubes,"  pour in your favorite drink and it makes it all slushy.  All you do is shake it for one minute. VERY GOOD!  Last night I put Coke in there and it was almost as good as a Coke Icee!

I love a good Coke icee !! Also--we grow watermelons for a living, I wonder if the one you are eating happens to be ours?

I almost bought the slushy thing earlier today but was skeptical of how well it worked. Guess, I'll have to try it out. Love the headboard!!!

Thanks for the review of the slushee cup. My 5 year old is begging for one for her birthday. I think you just sold me. :)

Oooo!! Gonna have to try the slushee cup! Wouldn't that be a cute summer b-day gift or hostess gift?? Thanks for mentioning it! Hadn't heard of it here in Dallas.

Where do you buy the Slushy Magic Cup? Sounds fun! Love your blog! You're so funny and give good tips! Love the Belvita cookies and the canned squash! Tried them because of you!

Coke Icees & Slurpees are my favorite too! Where can I get my hands on a slushy cup?

The mantle headboard is beautiful!

Only you would buy slushy magic! :)
And I have eaten half a watermelon in less than 24 hours. I would have eaten a whole one but my mom only gave me half.

Can't wait to see you in a few weeks!
