a night in with my lover :)

So I did absolutely NOTHING yesterday but inventory, made the gift bags for our grand opening and then cut Robert’s hair when he got off work! no $! ugh. I need some new clients, come 'on ladies.. who need their hair done? ;)

I went to the grocery store when I got off work and picked up some stuff for dinner and some ingredients to make a yummy pumpkin roll for Robert. He’s been bugging me to make him one since he’s tried it. here’s the recipe I used:

Ingredients

  • CAKE
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar (to sprinkle on towel)
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2/3 cup LIBBY'S® 100% Pure Pumpkin
  • 1 cup walnuts, chopped (optional)
  • FILLING
  • 1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
  • 6 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Powdered sugar (optional for decoration)

Directions

FOR CAKE:
PREHEAT
oven to 375° F. Grease 15 x 10-inch jelly-roll pan; line with wax paper. Grease and flour paper. Sprinkle a thin, cotton kitchen towel with powdered sugar.
COMBINE flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and salt in small bowl. Beat eggs and granulated sugar in large mixer bowl until thick. Beat in pumpkin. Stir in flour mixture. Spread evenly into prepared pan. Sprinkle with nuts.
BAKE for 13 to 15 minutes or until top of cake springs back when touched. (If using a dark-colored pan, begin checking for doneness at 11 minutes.) Immediately loosen and turn cake onto prepared towel. Carefully peel off paper. Roll up cake and towel together, starting with narrow end. Cool on wire rack.
FOR FILLING:
BEAT
cream cheese, 1 cup powdered sugar, butter and vanilla extract in small mixer bowl until smooth. Carefully unroll cake. Spread cream cheese mixture over cake. Reroll cake. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least one hour. Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving, if desired.
COOKING TIP:
Be sure to put enough powdered sugar on the towel when rolling up the cake so it will not stick.

 

you can find other good recipe’s here.

 

Robert cooked chicken & steak stir fry. It was so delish ;) He’s such a good cook! Now me on the other hand, I suck. LOL I’m only good at baking sweets! who would’ve thought huh?!

 

The rest of the night we just relax. We watched the Caps game and I caught up on some celebrity gossip reading my ‘In-Touch’ magazine. It felt great to just chill in and do a whole lot of nothing.

Tomorrow night, Robert’s friend Dylan is playing at Casey Jones so we are going there after I get off of work to see him. He’s an awesome singer. Listen to his music here and come check him out tomorrow night with us!

I’m getting extremely excited about our Ocean City trip for Halloween weekend. Only one more day then we will be on our way! I still have to get some last minute items for my costume for Saturday night and some Vampire teeth for our ‘TrueBlood’ party on Friday night! I’ll be sure to take a lot of pictures ;)

 

Speaking of VAMPIRES, I just watched ‘Twilight’, yes.. AGAIN. I’m a raging dork, but it’s ok. I just love me some Edward Cullen. I cant wait to see ‘NEW MOON’!! Only 22 more days!!!!!! YES :)

I just fell in love all over again . . .

what a boring & tired Tuesday =/

I hope last weeks raining streak doesn’t think it’s going to come back. ohhh no. That was such a miserable week! It’s really boring today, I’m the only one here at work. I brought some movies to watch on my laptop when I’m done playing online. I brought “Romy & Michelle’s high school reunion”, “When a stranger calls” & of course.. “Twilight” :) At least Edward will keep me content!

Friday night I hung out with Marie & Nicoletta at Marie at Dan’s  condo. We tried this drink recipe  called “TrueBlood” that Nic found to make on Friday for the OC pre-halloween party! Mmm, so delish :) It really looks like blood too! Daniel got home from work and Evan stopped by and we all played some card games and drank. We all made it an early night, everyone passed out around 11:30! I had to work at 9am on Saturday, so I wasn’t complaining.

Saturday after work I went down to Robert’s. I was a little tired, so while he was playing “C.O.D” (Call of Duty) on Xbox, I fell asleep for a little while. We were both in “chill mode” that we just laid around the rest of the night. We were supposed to go out to dinner, but that didn’t happen. At about 8, some friends came over and we started drinking/pre-gaming before we left to got to Hula’s. Christina was coming to pick up Me & Robert, so we waited on her and Mike, then left.

CIMG3238 this was Me & Robert in the back of the car while Christina was driving us to Hula’s :)

 

We partied there until about 12:30, I think! All of our friends were there and the Brittany the birthday girl! There was lots of shots being taken and a lot of moon-walking on the back deck. LOL, I just recently learned how to moon-walk so I was all over the place making my friend laugh :D

mengina This is my friend Gina! such a cute picture of us :)

 

When we got back to Robert’s, It was like a shit show. Everyone was pretty much DONE. The boys started playing Xbox (ugh!) again

CIMG3239

 

and Me & Christina acted silly and took some pretty funny pictures!

CIMG3243 CIMG3244 CIMG3245 we had such a blast acting retarded!

About 45 minutes after that, I was in bed. LOL I can’t seem to hang like I used to, maybe it’s because I’m getting old. haha

 

Sunday Me & Robert rented a bunch of movies! We got “Obsessed” which I LOVED! Beyonce kicked some ass in that movie :) We also watched “Drag me to hell” I don’t recommend you rent that, very cheesy! The last movie we rented was “Transformers 2” That was awesome. I love Shia Labeouf, he’s such a good actor.. and Megan Fox, She’s gorgeous. If I could pick any celebrity to look like, It would definitely be her!

 

Monday, Me & Robert went to a bunch of thrift stores trying to find a light gray suit for his Peewee Herman Halloween costume.

peewee2

We couldn’t find any matches, so I think he’s just going to be a Zombie instead because we leave for Ocean City on Friday and there’s not much time.

The rest of the day I just chilled out and relaxed. I watched the Redskins game, and do I need to say anymore? WTF are they doing? Campbell needs to put duck tape on his hands, fucker can’t even keep a hold of the ball It really pisses me off. I had to turn it off and watch my recorded episode of ‘Gossip Girl’.

“that’s soo me”

I stole this from Jenn. She told it was pretty fun & that I should do it if I got bored, and well… I’M BORED. lol

 

Dancing is soo me.

I love to dance. Day or night, music or in silence, drunk or sober (hah!) All day, Everyday! I’ve loved to dance since I was little, and ‘til this day, I haven’t changed a bit! I just have so much fun doing it and it’s such a great work out :)

 

Make-up is soo me.

I can’t go a day with out make up, especially out in public! My favorite is MAC cosmetics. I love wearing bright colors, and coordinating my eyes to match my clothes! I like to look different and never the same. Adding lashes give me a more dramatic look, which I like to do when I’m going out on the weekends or to a special event.

 

Juicy Couture is soo me.

I am COMPLETELY obsessed with Juicy bags. I have many different colors & styles. I can’t help but to buy a new one when I’m strolling through Nordstrom’s! They are so girly and have cute little sayings on them. You cant go wrong with anything Juicy!

 

La Tolteca is soo me.

I love me some Mexican food and La Tolteca is the best local Mexican restaurant around me. I always order the ‘Lunch Special #5’. I go there for lunch with friends at least one a week, I know its a little too often, but I LOVE the food :)

 

Knee boots are soo me.

It’s fall time and you can’t go wrong with a pair of sexy boots! I like em from leather stilettos all the way to flat & furry! I feel as if they complete any outfit and spice it up a bit!

 

Kissing is soo me.

I just love lips! nice & full lips are the best for kissing ;) I love the slow & sweet kisses but I also like the hard & passionate kisses! I even adore the cute little kisses on the forehead or cheek!

 

Robert is soo me.

I love Robert Sheldon Mitchell ♥ even though he can be a real pain in my ass, he’s everything I want ;) He’s sweet, SEXY, dresses nice, makes me laugh, sweet at times and always keeps me on my toes. I love him to the moon & back!

This Past weekend..

 

Friday Night:

I did absolutely nothing. I didn’t even want to leave the house because it was so rainy & nasty out and I was starting to feel sicky ;x I just watched movies, layed in bed and played online. That’s about it.

 

Saturday:

I went into work @ 9am, only had two clients (BOO!) Robert had to work pretty early in Baltimore and while he was working, a Baltimore bum broke his driver side window and stole his cell phone & MY Navigation system! So he had to stop by Craig’s(his mom’s boyfriend) shop to get a whole new window, go to Verizon to cancel his phone & order a new one & then finally made it home! poor little babe ;( I got off work at 3pm and then went home to get ready for the night and then headed down to Robert’s house. I was determined to not sit at home another night, So Robert suggested we go to College Park to visit our friend Ben & to party hardy! We got there around 8ish and started partyin pretty early! Lauren & Kale were also there which was awesome because I had a girl to kick it with! We played a lot of games of Beer Pong & then around 11ish we headed to the bus stop to take us out. The first bar we went to was ‘Corner Stone’ and it was jammed packed! We had about 2 drinks there and went next door to another bar, I don’t remember the name of it! I was the first to go in and I rushed through people to try to find the bathroom and when I did, it took FORVER! I don’t understand why it takes girls so long to use the bathroom.. I mean to your business and get out. lol, anyways…

So after the bathroom, I went on a hunt to find the group and I search the whole bar and was like where is everyone? It was even more packed than the first bar and full of hot, sweaty, rain-drenched, drunk college kids! I finally found Robert & Kale at the downstairs bar and as I walking over to them, my earring got caught on some dudes jacket and ripped it out. Then walking to find Ben & The rest of the group, some drunk girl spilled her whole drink down my arm, my toe got stepped on and I was just over it. Robert was too. But then we realized we lost Lauren & Kale, Ben wasn’t going back to the house right away so We rolled out, grabbed a taxi and somehow Robert remembered how the hell to get back to the house and we made it. There was more people back at the house then before, playing beer pong, girls taking shots & dancing to music from the iPod. it was craziness! Soon after we got there, Lauren & Kale made there way back home! I met some really chill girls, we talked about college, fake boobs & shots! haha!  and we all chilled for a little bit before passing out.

 

Sunday:

I woke up Sunday morning pretty early, I felt so gross, I wanted to go home & shower and get out of my clothes from the night before. We got home around 11am, took showers, got ready and headed back out to get some lunch. We went to Jasper’s to eat & watch the football game! Fucking Redskins, really? ;/

At 2:40pm we went to see ‘The Stepfather’ – don’t waste your money. I liked the whole movie, but the ending SUCKED! I guess a better way of saying it is wait til it comes out on DVD. I really wanted to see ‘Paranormal Activity’ but me or Robert didn’t feel like driving all the way to Annapolis to see it! The rest of the day we just lounged around, ordered pizza, drank hot tea, watched Dexter and went to bed!

Yesterday:

I did a whole lot of nothing, AGAIN. lol I put some clothes away, showered, and went to get my nails done. I got them cut down way shorter and black :) I figured it’s October, black nails are perfect for Halloween! oh speaking of Halloween.. I got my costume in the mail & it fits, THANK GOD! here is what I’m being:

bootcampbabe-l I always wanted to be an Army girl or Sailor ;)

 

After my nails, I met up with Robert & we went to his Dad’s house for Dinner. It was his Dad’s birthday! Robert bought him a Carhart Jacket & beanie. We played with his little brother & sister, Titus & Abby, then ate some yummy dinner & Spiderman cake his wife made. We ended the night pretty early, went back to Robert’s, watched ‘The Eye’ on TV and then passed out.

Right now I’m at work, and bored as usual on a regular Tuesday morning ;/ I’m just playing around online! I found this movie that just came out on DVD that i want to see! It’s starring Rob Pattinson! Ahh! :)

TheHauntedAirmanDVDCoverUS I’m going to have to rent/buy that ASAP!

I’m not doing much tonight, just probably chillen, catching up on my TV shows I have recorded on DVR and going to bed. I’m still feeling kind of crappy, so I want to rest as much as possible so I don’t get any worse ;/

rain rain go away…

It is seriously disgusting outside! Not only is it rainy, It’s freakin COLD. I hate fall/winter.  I’m sitting at work, and it’s dead in here, I’m guessing because of the weather.. But whatever, I’ll just be playing around on the computer all day.

 

I just added a mini iPod player to my blog. That’s where the music is coming from if you were wondering! its on the right sidebar.  I got it from mixpod.com! I had to have my man Rob Pattinson’s song as my first one on the player ;) LOL

 

After work last night, Robert came over and we snuggled up and watched this movie called “Eagle Eye” but of course I fell asleep. lol, THANK GOD for Comcast DVR because I had to record Vampire Diaries. Robert won’t watch those kind of shows with me! Really.. I just wish vampires existed.. need I say anymore….

cw-thevampirediaries-prt-pwesley_038061-581b33-281x374

He is so yummy!  So who’s excited for the Halloween Episode? ME! :) I’m a dork, but whatev. I thank ‘Twilight’ for getting me obsessed with sexy vamps!

 

I also just updated my ipod with some new music and I found some new songs on the itunes store.  You should check out some of these songs:

- Carrie Underwood “Cowboy Casanova”

- Phoenix “1901”

- Kerli “Walking on air”

- Letoya “Regret”

- Justin Bieber “One Time”

 

I never thought I’d actually enjoy a 15yr old singer but I love this song, and i thought the video was the cutest EVER :)

don’t forget to turn my ipod player off first!

 

cute huh? Reminds me of a young Jesse McCartney back in the day in “Dream street” Haha!

Another Song I found was by Leighton Meester, you know “Blair” from ‘Gossip Girl’ she’s getting pretty big! This isn’t the video, but you can listen to it:

 

Tonight I’m not too sure what I’m doing. I know Robert has to work early tomorrow morning, but so do I. If we do anything, it’s going to be really low key.. like a dinner & movie or something like that! I really want to see “Paranormal Activity” & “The Step father” both of those looks pretty scary!

Right now I’m at work, It’s a slow day, which is why I have time to blog.. it’s usually slow in the beginning of the week! I figured I make a post before my 3:00 appointment! I’m going to re-cap what happend this past weekend because I was very busy!

 

Friday;

I worked at 9am to about 5pm at the salon and went home to get ready for the “Escape the Armada” show at Hula’s! It was also Charlie’s birthday so it was a Crazy night! Let’s just say.. I won $100 doing what I do best & hung out with some awesome people :)

Saturday;

I went into work at 9am and was done around 3pm. I took a little nap before the second night of craziness! Robert came over and then we left to head over to Amber’s house for the “Anything goes but Clothes” party! It was a blast! I made my costume out of a twister board:

All the girls were very creative.. ribbons, cupcake wrappers, pillow cases, towels, trash bags.. etc.

8718_184333190940_756185940_4317925_7726513_n

We partied until about 3am and then everyone started passing out! I knew it was going to be tired for Leah’s birthday party the next day, So I knew I had to stop drinking pretty early!

 

Sunday;

Got up pretty early and took Robert to Thompson’s Seafood to get some crabs to take to my cousin’s house from the  Redskins game while I was at Leah’s 5th Birthday Party! Jenn did  a great job with the set up! It was all Hello Kitty & so cute :) Leah looked adorable as usual! The first thing she showed me was her new pink nails she got painted for her birthday! I got her a mini vanity with some little girl make-up since that’s what she told me she wanted the night of my birthday dinner! Such a cutie :)

After the party I left and went to get Robert from my cousin’s! Him & Jimmy were both passed out on the couch (butthead!) I was so exhausted from the weekend that I couldn’t wait to get some comfy clothes on & snuggle on the couch! We ended up renting “Adventureland” on Comcast. It was pretty good!

 

so that was my busy busy weekend! Even though I was tired as hell by the end of it, I enjoyed every second  :)

Hello Bloggers ♥

Hey everyone! This is my first post! I'm still new to this website so I'm going to make this post short & sweet so I can play around with my layout.
