An "It" weekend

As you've probably already noticed, I took the last couple of days off from blogging. I just had too much to get done this past weekend. Not that I didn't really miss you guys or anything (I'm always thinking of my readers), I just didn't have anything of real quality to blog about unless you wanted to hear me rant on and on about how I need some extra cash right now, so I scrounged around the house for stuff to sell on Ebay over the weekend, and then I discovered that even if it sold, the little bit I did find for Ebay wasn't going to really bring in anything more than enough money to get a quarter tank of gas if I'm lucky. So I decided to put a special up on my website for books and bracelets hoping to bring in a few extra sales. Ya, I didn't think you really wanted to hear about all of that, so I'll spare you all of the details. :)

It's Monday night and I still don't really have a good topic to talk about. I guess that's the fun thing about blogging though. I can pretty much talk about anything here, right? :) Let's see... I could tell you how I haven't been out of the house since Friday night, or would you like to know about the horrible baked fish sticks I made for dinner tonight? Lets go with the fish sticks... They were soooo horrible that I had to toss them into the trash (not a recipe, so don't worry, even if it was I wouldn't share it with you. LOL). These were Mrs. Paul's Healthy Baked fish sticks. You get like 6 of them for 4 points. I'll save you some money right now... don't buy them! Make your own or go for the better frozen stuff and just count the points. After I tossed the fish sticks I just kinda rummaged through the freezer trying to figure out what I wanted to make instead. I decided on 1 point frozen waffles with a little bit of lite syrup, light Bob Evans sausage links, egg beaters and a glass of milk. 10 points total, but it was filling and tasted good. I was actually kinda glad the fish sticks didn't turn out because lets face it, who wants 6 dinky little dried up fish sticks for 4 points when you can have a big old plate of breakfast foods with syrup and some milk for 10 points? If I'd eaten those fish sticks, I'd probably be starving right now. I am a little thirsty though... hold on.... gonna go get a glass of lemon lime crystal light. :) Ok, I'm back. Mental note to self.... make more crystal light when I'm done rambling on my blog. LOL!

Well other than telling you about how I'm doing laundry today (ya, I'm sure you really want to hear about that), I don't really have anything else exciting to talk about. Oh, I guess I have one thing that has possibilities of being exciting... Over the weekend someone sent me a message about selling something called Homemade Gourmet. Since I need some extra cash, I'm considering it. I haven't decided yet though. I'm trying to get all of the facts together before I jump right in. I don't want my name associated with anything that isn't good. I figure it could be a good thing, or it could be something I'm going to get into and get stuck with a lot of products I couldn't sell. From what I've read online and the couple of people I've talked to, everyone loves the products (they're basically seasonings and mixes to help you make dinner a lot faster). I did ask if the products had nutritional information and I was assured they did, so that's good. I'm not really someone to have a home party or call people on the phone to push a product though, so I'm not sure how well this will work out if I do decide to do it. It would be nice if it was a product that just sells itself, but I'm not sure if very many people have heard of Homemade Gourmet. I guess I'll just have to think about this a little more. I have a little over a week until I have to make my decision if I want to get the discounted sign up fee. If I do decide to sell this stuff though, I don't want people who come to my website to think I'm some kind of sell out either. My website is the most important thing to me, other than my health. Yes, I cook and I sell cookbooks, but unless I want to go get a 2nd job and take away the time I do spend on the website and making new recipes, I need to find a way to make some extra money from home. Mary Kay is out since I don't wear make-up. LOL!

Well, I guess that's all for now. The dryer stopped, so I guess I'll go get the clothes out and hang them. Fun Fun Fun!!! :) Think I'll go to bed early tonight too. I'm feeling a bit sleep deprived these days. TTYL!
