I decided to make this recipe I saw on Hungry Girl called Yum Yum Chocolate Cake and Artoo helped with the ingredients. All two of them! Yep that's right the cake is made with only the two ingredients you see above. It's quite a workout for your arms let me tell ya! I haven't tasted it yet so we'll have to get back to you on that, but I can tell you it smells delish! It's suppose to make 12 slices and one slice has only 181 calories and if your on Weight Watchers it has a Points value of 4. So for Artoo and myself...enjoy the rest of your night, I know I will after the cake has cooled! :)

I’ve started a new job that is the polar opposite of where I worked before. No more jeans and boots here. So for my WWSWW return I give you a brand new outfit.

 

My top and skirt I purchased at Kohl’s one of my favorite places to shop. I actually bought the outfit using my Kohl’s Cash and it was on sale as well! The skirt and top are by Heart Soul and my shoes are by Michael Kors and yes I did start with the shoes and found the outfit to go with them. The shoes are very comfortable they have a nice heel (I’ve worn higher) and needless to say they are my favorite pair! I am not parting with those suckers anytime soon. I love the color of my top, it’s a pretty turquoise color perfect for someone who is trying to incorporate a color other than pink into her wardrobe. The one thing I don’t like about the top is that it gives me a bit of cleavage, I’m not really a cleavage kind of girl so I may add a button to the front. I was just talking to my BTFF about how I really don’t wear dresses, skirts are as close as I’ll get to wearing a dress I think and it’s taken a while before I felt comfortable enough to wear a skirt, maybe it’s all that time I spent in jeans. I really like this skirt though, it’s cute, but not too girly. Perfect for an office setting.

Now to bring back WWSWW with a bang here is one more picture (this one is for you Suzi)

My Kathy Van Zeeland Croco Club cross-body bag! I love this bag! Oh who am I kidding I love KVZ!! This is a great color for summer and it will transition into the Fall season, unless of course I find another KVZ before Fall and I can sneak it past my hubby. I love the fact that I can carry this bag two different ways: on the shoulder or cross-body. It also has the zip pockets in the front that fit my phone perfectly and a hidden zip pocket in the back. The one thing I don’t like about this bag is that if I carry it on my shoulder it’s difficult to pull out anything from the inside, but if I carry it cross-body it’s easier to pull things out and put them back in the bag with ease.

So there you have it what I wore Wednesday plus the bag I’m carrying.

Artoo has been very busy this summer. After a stay in Paris he flew back across the pond and stopped in Florida for a visit to the Star Wars Celebration! Wish I could've gone. Now he's back and ready to resume Artoosday.

I couldn’t decide what to do for my 100th post, which is why it’s taken me so long to post something. Well here it is. My 7 year old’s great grandma celebrated her 83rd birthday on Sunday. We drove up to Frederick and went to church with her and after church we took her to Pizza Hut (options in Frederick are limited). I love listening to her stories and up until a year ago she was  still taking care of her great grandkids! And if any of her great grandkids get out of line while she is watching them she has a fly swatter at the ready!

This post isn’t going on my other blog since we didn’t/couldn’t have a proper 4th of July in Texas since our county has banned fireworks! So we actually had to cross state lines in order to have a great 4th. At first we were worried that the rain wouldn’t stop. What is it with it always raining on the 4th of July? We were invited by James & Melissa to go with their family to Lake Lawtonka in Oklahoma, when we arrived it was a bit misty but not really raining, but once we unloaded everything it really started to rain. I was not dressed for the occasion! Silly me, I wore my bathing suit and only brought shorts and a t-shirt to change into, well it turned out to be cold rain, but thanks to Melissa’s dad we had a tarp to put up to block some of the rain and then some other people had gone to the Dollar General and bought shower curtains (yes, shower curtains) for the guys to put up and voila! The rain was blocked. Luckily the rain did come to an end and we had a great time shooting of tons (and I’m not exaggerating lol) of fireworks. Here’s just a few:
This reminded me of La Push :)


See the tarp and shower curtain?

I’ve been out of commission for a while (well my laptop anyway), but I finally bit the bullet and got it fixed. 1000 + pictures later I have everything downloaded and I’m ready to blog again! Here’s some photos from my Tia and Tio’s 52 wedding anniversary. Everyone had a great time and it was a family reunion of sorts with everyone coming together to help them celebrate such a special occasion.
