The Hills Finale

Its the final show for this year! I can't wait. Let me know your thoughts about how the show performed to your standards. I can't wait to see the fake Speidi wedding! and the scripted yet hopeful make-up of Lauren and Heidi! It is sooo sad how addicted I am to this show!

After show Comments: A few of my favorite moments from the show were...

• OMG I loved the look on LC's face when speaking with Heidi--even more I loved how she downed her champagne glass as if to drown out the awkwardness of the conversation. The line "It is what it is, sometimes its not fair" was priceless, almost as good as "I forgive you and forget you!"
• How staged was the Spiedi courthouse wedding scene, although I must say it almost made me like Spencer... then I woke up and remembered what a jerk he is.
• The final favorite moment was when Heidi's mom told Spencer she knew he manipulated and connived Heidi to the alter--but not quite as good as the comment made to US Weekly that he "drugged" her to the alter.

One final thought, How much does the After show suck? Between the web cams and man wearing cardigans I don't know which is worse.

Cleaning Day

My Saturdays are usually spent catching up from the hectic week and preparing for the next. Although I try to keep the house cleaned throughout the week, a deep cleaning is kind of refreshing. Like a good southern housewife, I make my own cleaning wipes to make the weeks cleaning easy. They are my frugal and organic version of the expensive wipes you buy in the store.

1/2 c. vinegar
1/2 c. water
1/4 roll of paper towels

Using a screw driver punch a whole in the top of a Ziploc container.

Combine vinegar and water in container. You may add 1 Tbl. of lemon juice to cut the smell of the vinegar.

Roll paper towels and place them into the solution.

Place on the top and voila earth and wallet friendly all purpose cleaning wipes!

Happy Cleaning!

Check back tomorrow for a once a month cooking friendly recipe!

The True Events of the Honeymoon

As I recall all of the wonderful times had during our honeymoon I can't help but think about how relaxing the mountains were and what the honeymoon was really about...

Pajamas all day long!

You might be a redneck if you have pickles and mountain dew on your honeymoon!

Memories

It is hard to believe Kevin and I have almost been married for a year! Our honeymoon was perfect! After orchestrating my dream wedding I was locked away in a snowy cabin in North Carolina for a little over a week with my new husband. I still giggle when I say that... husband, husband, husband. After waiting for over SIX years it still feels new!

As we traveled up the mountains it began to snow. The perfect beginning to our mountain adventure!

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from our trip to Ruby Falls.

We traveled into the center of the mountain. This is a picture of the underground spring the flowed inside the tavern (as my husband calls it).

The underground tavern was cold and had a strange odor. The tour guide was so entertaining! He reminded me of Ben Stein...Bueller, Bueller, Bueller.

The limestone pillars are amazing! ...Pillar, Pillar, Pillar


The best feature of the tour was by far the cascading falls in the center of the mountain. It was so dark that the pictures were not able to capture the wonder.

Another newly wed couple were sweet enough to take our picture.

Check back to see more pictures from our perfect honeymoon! Feel free to leave any wedding/honeymoon questions you may have for me in my comments. I will answer any inquiries in my next blog.

XOXO
