Yesterday had me wondering why Bravo has yet to contact me on joining the cast of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. I think I have what it takes.

Reason 1 = I take the easy way out of things. Like resorting to a boxed mix on a busy day to make the baby boy announcement cake.

Boxed vanilla cake with lemon frosting still tastes dang good! Although it was a bit weird having a blue inside.And such yellow icing. Oh, the chemicals! LOL Big thanks to Em for sharing this idea from your sister!

Reason 2 = I like hitting up trendy restaurants.

A birthday/baby celebration dinner calls for something out of the ordinary. Hibachi! I can always count on a good meal. Soup, salad, veggies, and my choice of meat? Sounds good to me! Even if doused in more than its share of oil.

Makenzie loved watching all the chef’s antics. Even the fire from the onion volcano.

Reason 3 = I love wearing crazy things on my head and being the center of attention.

Please tell me that is not her real hair. I’ve only seen the show a couple times and don’t know.

Reason 4 = people go crazy when in my presence.

Look at the excitement on those faces. It’s all for me. Nothing to do with the baby. See – I’m selfish too.

Reason 5 = I shop ‘til I drop.

My favorite consignment sale with the best deals, especially on clothes, started yesterday. It’s also basically the last sale of the season to get fall/winter things for cheap. After learning “boy” I had to take advantage. So I went shopping and now have baby B stocked for the chillier weather on everything from sleepers to cute little outfits. All for about $100.

Reason 6 = I receive special treatment.

For my birthday, my parents and sister got me a 1 hour prenatal massage certificate to enjoy. Nice! Now I have 2 prenatal massages to use up. One from a Groupon and now this. I need a massage!

So, do you see the obviousness of me being a Real Housewife of Atlanta? Or should I just stick with being real and blogging all about it? Decisions, decisions. 😉

• Do you like or despise the birthday treatment restaurants give you? I actually prefer places that do it up a bit more with fun antics.
• What is the trashiest or most ridiculous reality TV show you watch? Or what’s one you would NEVER watch? I’ve actually only seen any of the RHW shows a handful of times and its been awhile. I guess The Bachelor Pad would be my trashy show.
• Have you entered my giveaway? It ends on Monday!

Last night, Thermos products celebrated the launch of a new series with a Twitter chat. Those who participated had the opportunity of winning some of their products while also receiving healthy living and hydration tips from those in the healthy living field. If you were unable to participate, I have good news for you. Thermos Brand will offer a new series hydration bottle to one FFF reader!

If you strive to live a healthy life, you know the importance of proper hydration. One of the best ways to be certain you get enough water is to constantly sip throughout the day. Having a bottle, like those from Thermos, to drink from will help ensure good hydration.  Check out the features these bottles boast:
