Blog Heaven





A blog post about a blog: a pretty boring concept, I suppose. I can't help myself, though. I'm in blog heaven.




I recently found out about the website NoMoreRack.com. The concept is similar to other 'one deal a day' websites that sell products at super low prices until they sell out. The result is your online shopping addiction making its way to whole new level of "OH NO I JUST CLICKED. I JUST BOUGHT THAT! CRAP. IT'S OK IT WAS ONLY $30." I spent some time yesterday afternoon researching the site which eventually lead me to find out about Hooked on Bargains. I was able to score two boxes of Yogi Tea for my honey and I, samples of Teasta, Excedrin and a free subscription to Martha Stewart's Whole Living. Of course there is a difference between wanting and needing these kinds of goodies, but for free- who cares! (Although there was much restraint practiced when it came to the Yogi Tea- I love that stuff!!) Even better, after my business was finished on Hooked on Bargains I thought, "I wonder what other kind of time and money saving sites there are?" A few clicks later I landed at OrganicDeals.com.


"SACRE BLEU!"


The blog features all sorts of discounts and money saving ongoings for lovers of holistic living. It's a dream come true for gals who likes to stretch a buck and live a healthy lifestyle. Swing over to the site if you have time and you might as well send someone you love a Yogi Well Wish while you're at it HERE!


So, So, Yummy!

FALLing

Among this season's most celebrated treasures (pumpkineverything!leaves!applecider!coolweather!) I look forward to Fall because of food. October and November are hearty, earthy, rustic months and my appetite tends to reflect that. As the middle months of the year dwindle down I become increasingly lustful after the perfectly spiced taste of beer brewed for Fall. (Note: Fall beer is also usually brewed with the perfect ABV% to get the job done, quickly.)


Enjoying some delicious Oktoberfest beer at the Ol'Heidelberg in Huntsville, AL.


Last night the nest hosted an oven's worth of pumpkin scones topped with a spicy sweet glaze (bring it- Starbucks!) and this weekend some of the birdies are caravaning to a chili cook-off hosted in the forest of WV. In fact even tonight's dinner menu at the nest is loaded with foods that answer Fall's call: "Comfort me."

Just thinking about it has exhausted me with Fall possibilities! In fact, I'm ready for another relaxing mug of ginger tea followed by a long, somber sleep. Good night!


Do any of you have recipes or traditions reserved especially for Fall?
