Seven! Seven! Seven!!!!!

A couple of my favorite bloggers – Chelsey and Heather – have a fun little Friday tradition. Fun Facts Friday! It gives a little glimpse into their lives and I always look forward to reading them. Then, Lindsay tagged me with a Blissful Blogger award which calls for sharing 7 fun facts.

I guess it was just meant to be that I play along with Fun Facts Friday. Winking smile

The number seven always makes me think of the scene from FRIENDS where Monica and Rachel teach Chandler about erogenous zones. Seven. Seven. Seven! Seven!!! SEVEN!!! Ha. Loves it!

You should never joke about having a black eye. Karma will get ya. On Wednesday, I somehow opened my car door right into my face and busted my lip.

Thankfully, it looks only slightly bruised now. And you’re welcome for sparing you the bloody, scabbed picture.

I still love the grilled sandwich combo of pepperjack cheese, tomato, and hummus.

It looks so delicious, but it never fails that I burn the bottom half.

Who can’t cook a grilled cheese sandwich? Apparently this girl.

I want to find these pumpkin bagels.

I can’t get them out of my head! I have searched high and low – Publix or Kroger, bread section or refrigerated section. They must live in some bagel vortex. It makes me sad. Do you know where I can get some?

I watched my first episode of Modern Family three weeks ago.

I love it. I want to find these illusive pumpkin bagels and sit on the couch and watch the entire first season straight through. That show is downright funny!

These came in the mail for me yesterday.

I’m all  kinds of excited. Peter told me he subscribed for me when he found a TWO DOLLAR subscription. How does he always find these crazy good deals?! Oh, yea. The Slickdeals website.

I’m working with Love Grown as a Love Blogger!

Have been for awhile…yet it somehow keeps slipping my mind to a) tell you and b) figure out how to get that picture into a widget on my sidebar. Ohhh, Peterrrrr!!!

  • What’s something that should be ridiculously easy to do, but you can never seem to get just right?
  • What’s a newly discovered love for you? Mine = Modern Family and Runner’s World. And front loaders.

A Special Appearance By…

Hi! Do you know who I am? I sure hope so because I think I’m something special.

My mommy told me that some of her friends wanted to hear about the things I eat. Then I heard you all play some weird What I Ate Wednesday game.

Peas and Crayons

I like games. I like food. I like being like Mommy.

I guess I can play along and tell you what I eat. It was a yummy day. Smile

For breakfast, I always have to have my favorite meal. Unless Daddy makes pancakes. Then, I want pancakes. But on a normal day I want a bowl of oatmeal, half a banana, and a cup of milk. It’s my favorite!

IMGP2031-1

Mommy will even put some pumpkin in my oatmeal so I can be just like her.

After breakfast I either go to school or stay at home to torture play with my little brother. I like to pretend I’m his mommy, which is tiring. I get hungry for a snack.

IMGP2037-1

Yesterday I was at home. At school I get goldfish or pretzels or other things for snack. I like it a lot, but I like my snacks from Mommy too.

IMGP1840-1

Yesterday, I wanted a bar just like mommy. My mommy’s friend, Chelsey , gave her two sunbutter bars. We each had one. I like Chelsey. She gave me green Halloween socks. Mommy & I both ate our bars and agreed we liked them. Although I don’t think it tasted like the sun??? It wasn’t hot! Confused smile

After a couple more hours, I wanted my lunch. I was sooooo excited for lunch! Mommy told me we had leftover crushed tomatoes, so that meant we could have pizza for lunch! Yipee! I like pizza. I like pizza a lot. Almost as much as I like cake!

IMGP2060-1

I had some apple slices with my pizza. It was the best. It gave me a nice and full belly so I could sleep nicely. I decided to help Mommy out and take a three hour nap. She says she gets work done during my naps. I think she just plays with my toys. Or naps too. I like to make mommy very tired.

When I wake up, I’m hungry again. Oh, goody! Mommy is making some green smoothies. I love love love green smoothies.

IMGP1757-1

They are the perfect snack! Or yogurt. I like yogurt for snack too. Maybe I will have both! No. Mommy says I can’t spoil my dinner. She knows me too well.

By dinner I try to tell Mommy I don’t like vegetables. She says I had vegetables already in my smoothie. Hold up! WHAT?!

Okay. I guess vegetables can be yummy. I always eat what Mommy makes for dinner. She won’t make me a special dinner, unless it’s the weekend. If Mommy or Daddy get Subway or make a pizza for them, then I get macaroni and cheese! The bunny kind is the best! If only they made a DUCK kind. In love

I’m kind of obsessed with ducks. All I want for my birthday is a purple light-up bouncy one I found at the store. I told Mommy to be happy it’s a $2 present.

What was I talking about again? Oh, dinner! This blogging thing is hard. For dinner I had a beef sandwich like mommy and some green beans. Not as good as macaroni and cheese but it will do.

IMGP2067-1IMGP2068-1

I hope you liked reading what I eat. Now, I must go back to being a princess. Princess

  • Oh, wait. Mommy says I need to ask a question. Sooooo…what was YOUR favorite thing to eat as a kid? And tell me if you know where to find duck shaped macaroni and cheese!
