Laina....you do beautiful work!!!

Stormy....hug be careful out there! I don't think it had anything to do with your q's. I think more than likely it was just some idiot talking on his cell and stopped at the nearest car to write something down.

yea walmart charges 19.99 for each decorated 1/2(i think thats the right measurement) sheet cake. so she told me i could either pay 18.99 for each or she could make me a whole sheet(27.99) and split it in half and decorate each half whichever way I wanted. then she will add 5.00 for the extra decorating kit for 2nd cake! kung fu panda and disney princess! so $33 dollars for the two bigs ones! those cakes are for my 4 and 5 yr old! they are both the same age for a mth! Anyways I also ordered the belle gown cake for my lil 11 mth old missus! she can have that to herseld and tear it up! lol so yea $40 for those cakes, ill take it! i have the bdays of sept 14th, oct 4th and oct 11th so this saturday im having a big party for them all! LMAO then me and the hubby celebrate our joint bday on sept 24th! nod shake head

I've been doing the same thing. Every morning when the alarm goes off, I'm cursing myself too. I gave myself until 11 tonight.

Envies went out tonight. I'll try to get the FF's out tomorrow.

Chinese wedding cookies... bride wanted the sign for double happiness a tradition at chinese weddings... those took a long time, as I had to do each one by hand made out of chocolate and then painted in edible gold..
So there you go....
I LOVE the wedding cookies - absolutely gorgeous. Do you ship? laugh out loud
Quote from Jen2882 :
I only say this b/c the last time I got creeped out with a way someone was acting in the parking lot towards me I didn't listen to my instincts and when i came back out to my car with my dd the dude was uhm pleasuring himself if ya know what i mean. That to me is far scarier than any coupon thing.
First month I was living in AZ, I went to a nice, new SWM. Guy in there walking around the store, sticking items in his pants and doing the nasty with them in there. Then puts them back on the shelf... Tried to tell an employee but they didn't speak English Mad

Other AZ experience was having a peeping tom who decided to relieve himself on my window. Sunshine makes people freakin weird.

Did I ever mention I hated living there? Crylol
Quote from sungoddess7 :
Yep, my 1 year old DD has two hearing aids. She has moderately severe hearing loss. She can hear a little bit without her hearing aids (normal conversation voice next to her ear). I wear them as well and have severe hearing loss (since birth). We both use the same batteries (size 13) and they last usually a week/week and a half. We go thru a lot of batteries!! laugh out loud
OMG that's a huge expense - I'll look to see if my grocery store has $2 (some brand) hearing aid battery Qs tearpad still for you
Quote from sd59 :

Speaking of food - I remember somebody saying they didn't like the TGIFriday mexican style quesadilla - we fried it up in the pan and they were really good. Definitely on our "will get again" list

I've done this at Safeway - was so steamed at the treatment over coupons that I used $25 of cats to buy a Cheesecake Factory gift card. Then went to Cheesecake Factory and had to wait over 3 HOURS - from time food was served until check was brought. Ridiculous. But complained and got a $35 gift card out of that. Big Grin The gift that keeps on giving... laugh out loud

Gotta get to bed! Going to try to drag the kids with me to 2 Harris Teeters tomorrow, do two runs at each store. Not all my Qs have come in, so 3 of the runs will be very quick, the fourth is thrown together from Qs I already had and can use. I hate having to bring the little ones with me, 'specially since we were out all this morning shopping, but this weekend is crazy busy for us and there may not be time in the evenings. Anybody else get mommy guilt when it comes to shopping with little ones? Little ones being toddlers...

Oh well. Deals are deals, and there are things I NEED to get, so must just suck it up, I suppose. Smilie

Totally with you on the mommy guilt!

Me and dd went to wag's tonight just to look for peelies and b/c she wanted to go bye bye and i was bored. She was actually super good and super cute tonight! First off, she had to bring her baby who has no clothes with...attached to the clothes she took off is it's stupid pacifier you put in it's mouth when it cries...like it did repeatedly tonight lol. I had to shove my finger in its mouth to get it to shut up!

I decided to get ice cream and of course dd wants to carry it. I let her carry it and tells her she needs to put it on the counter...and she did, until the cashier went to take it and she grabbed it back....I'm laughing at this point and tell her she needs to put it up there...so in typical fashion she goes to throw it back at him, thankfully when she lifted it over her head it fell out of her hands...I'm such a bad mom though, all i could do was laugh. She was trying to be helpful!!

Soooo there was a chick in front of me and I noticed her b/c she had a binder.....I didn't think she used coupons b/c she got diapers, shampoo and deodorant and spent like 32.xx.....uhm yea she had coupons, i saw them on the counter after she left. I admire the effort, but I feel so sad when i people using coupons still spend that much for like 6 things. *sigh* If you read this wag's girl....let me show you the way!!!

i can imagine you do! but honestly i would have thought those batteries would last longer just cuz of the size and how hard it might be to change them.
jw, do you know sign language or teach your daughter any? i had a friend who was deaf when i was little and was intrigued enough to learn for a couple of years on my own.
Yeah, I wish they would last longer! It would save money and be less waste. I do recycle the batteries, but still, it's a lot! Yes, I do teach my daughter sign language. I do both, speaking and signing. She is picking up the signing really well. It's really neat to see.

Oh, yeah, Arizona was not a fun experience for me either. I lived there for like 8 months and had to get out! laugh out loud

Yeah, it's an expense. Thanks for offering to help! Big Grin

Yeah, have to agree, Anepu is pretty awesome in helping out with the ticket. Thumbsup

Holy long multipost, batman! Sorry, but I'm finally catching up for the night...

Quote from doublesided :
*snip* (this one is in honor of your DH Wink )

Oh and did I mention I'm going through 25 pounds of inserts DH brought home?

Is it me or does Jeffshere always come up with the coolest random posts
25 lbs of inserts - that's a thing of beauty!!!

And Barb definitely has very cool posts. She pops in with gems! hug

Quote from sungoddess7 :
Yeah, and that whole health insurance industry is just the pits. No coverage for anything dealing with hearing loss if you were born with it whatsoever...but, most insurance will cover those that are losing or have lost their hearing due to age. Go figure!
*snip*
Really???? That's just crazy. It isn't like they can claim it was a pre-existing condition... Confused

Quote from teri037 :
That's how mine works Jen, but do check into it first. They've made some changes. Used to be if you didn't use it all w/in the year, you lost it. Now it rolls over. At least mine does. It's a good program but it pays to study up on it first.
I've never had one that rolled over - they've always been "use it or lose it"

Quote from laina :
Thank you...
No formed pan, started out with a plain sheet cake then... freehand.. lots of cut (cake) and paste (icing) and a whole lot of fondant.

*snip*
Laina - those are simply wonderful - you do fantastic work!!! Thank you so much for sharing them with us. Now I'm hungry too though Smilie

Quote from stormy_cat :
Help guys, little freaked out here, ok lot freaked out

*snip*
Glad you are safe Stormy!!! I agree with the others - I don't think it has anything to do with Qs. Make sure you are extra careful in parking lots because there are lots of weirdos out there. If you ever see him again, make sure you ask a store employee (male) to walk you out to your car!!! hug

Quote from Jen2882 :
*snip*

I have a bunch of the tq's listed...the huggies diapers and wipes, the hefty, the charmin if anyone needs any.

I will get more glade this week ( i know a gold mine store near me lol) so if anyone needs some of those let me know.
I'll send you a PM about these - I could totally use the huggies diapes / wipes TQs Smilie
