Almond milk!
So I have always known that this stuff existed...but never gave much thought to the nutritional count (super low calories) and such. The other day my boss asks me if I would like to try some....so I did and it was good. And I am looking forward to trying to steam it for my coffee!!!

Homemade cleaning peoducts
Seriously I have a new obsession. Actually that is not true....I have always had a cleaning counter obsession. Like all the time before and after I even make a sandwich. It is a bit crazy.
Anyways about a month and a half ago i got this amazing cleaner. At least it seamed to at the time...super strength stuff and probably not meant for consistent use.... And it didn't smell good and it made me dizzy. But I loved it. Used for everything. Carpets etc. but like I said the crazy strength came with a lot of near dizziness. And so begins my idea for something better.
The search started looking for the febreeze recipe I pinned on Pinterest ages ago....cause it sounded cool and I knew I had the stuff so I went for it but the baking soda was a bit chunky....
In this same search I discovered all purpose cleaner....make it yourself. And I could not resist...honestly my counters seem cleaner....so worth the initial cost of things! And I can not stop cleaning with it... I love it....an lavender....that is great no gross chemical smell! (and rumor has it lavender is a NATURAL disinfectant!) it cannot get better!

Carmel delight bars
I swear for the last two weeks all I have heard people talk about is girl scout cookies....non stop....all the time. Two things: I am cheap $5 a box seems crazy an when I do get them they disappear like crazy! So when I pinned caramel delight bars....amazing
I had to get them out of the house and also alter the recipe....horrible for me no lies but sooooo good. Sorta made me want to put coconut in everything!

Gas-pumped and payed inside
Ok this is silly (and from February) two things I never do happened
1. I never go in the gas station, always pay at the pump.
2. If my husband isn't with me I always pump my gas.
So this lovely day the pay at pump thing wasn't working (ug!) so I went inside and casually mentioned that the last few times I had filled up there mg tank had stopped it multiple times rely and I had no idea why. So the guy actually came out and filled it for me. He has issues too. Despite his kindness I don't have the patience to wait for the pump and no longer full at this brand.

Carrrrr
As of earlier this week my car is officially payed off!!! I already feel like we are getting a check instead! Yayy! No more car payments at our house.
More channels?
So first off yes it has been AGES since I blogged....I gave done new things....just no time to talk about it! But as we speak one of these new things is happening.
If you know me you might know that growing up I had ONE channel (unless the wind was just right on a good day) I watched price is right all summer long and then various rented or owned video tapes. I was behind the time. When my family moved to California when I was 13 I was ecstatic to get like 5 channels an then they changed the channel box thing about 3 1/2 years ago and my 5 turned to like 20...but they were mostly random and dumb I use an antenna and it is choppy....Matt has LIKED the idea of more channels for ages....and things are sorts crazy around here but our antenna in a single level doesn't receive as well as it did upstairs....so we went for it an the u verse guy (thanks to my awesome cousin) is currently here setting it up I will be able o record my favorite shows....watch the Kansas basketball games at my house instead of my parents (i should tell you they got dish or u verse shortly after I moved out)
Tomorrow during the Kansas vs Mizzou game I am working so now the decision...do I follow it on my phone at the event...or do I TiVo it and avoid contact with any that would tell me until a couple hours after the game?
