Valentine's Day


I took the girls to visit my parents this past weekend.  We had a wonderful and relaxing time.  The girls love to make Jello with my mother. 

We had a wonderful Mom conference at church last weekend.  It was just what I needed!  I left the retreat early on Saturday morning so we could get on the road.  My parents live about five hours away from us.

Tonight I am making red beans, rice and sausage for our Valentine's dinner.  I have never made it from scratch before, so this will be a test.  We have learned to stay in on this day so we don't have to fight the crowd.

Last night,  I watched Hoarders and then My Strange Addiction.  It made me feel so normal and I felt like my house looked spotless.  There was a lady on my strange addiction that grooms her cat by licking her and then eating her fur.  I laughed so hard!!!!  I DO LOVE Kristen the cat, but I would never in a million years do this.

Oh my goodness! I saw part of My Strange Addiction! I just couldn't believe that crazy cat lady! I nearly have a panic attack if I get one little hair on my tongue. How she manages to chew and swallow all that is BEYOND me! :)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Will you kindly share your recipe? I've never made red beans, rice & sausage together. Thanks!

I saw My Strange Addiction last night too! It was like a train wreck! So weird, but I couldn't turn away!

How did the red beans and rice recipe go? If you liked it, please share. Looking for a good one for Alex and I've never made it. :)

I'm laughing so hard at your comments about my strange addictions and hoarders. It's so hard for me to watch those shows...I gag the entire time. LOL

I CANNOT watch Strange Addictions. I've tried and it makes me sick! ha! I have no doubt you love it!

If I was watching that show I would have, without a doubt, thrown up. I am with Hillary. We have a dog that I really don't let in the house. He stays in my husbands man cave if it is cold or snowing. If I had a hair from him on my tongue I would have a panic attack. I think I am on the other end of the spectrum.
