Moms Say the Darndest Things

Here are a couple of things my mom has said in the past couple of weeks that has cracked me up.

1. "Unfortunately, I'm not on twitter. I don't twit!" (yes twit rhymes with spit)

2.
Me: I danced to Lollipop in my "modern" dance class tonight.
Mom: Oooo. Singing--Lollipop, lollipop, oh lolly lollipop......lollipop, (pop sound), ba bom bom bom
Me and Sister: Bursts of laughter

Guess she's never heard of Lil' Wayne, huh?

Sisterly Love on Chick Chat



It's our turn to do a little Chick Chat for our girls, 3 BayB Chicks. The Chatterbox aka Christie-My Life a Work in Progress aka my sister and I jumped at the chance to let you in to our sisterly lives. Now, if you know either of us via our blogs or in real life you know how absolutely IMPOSSIBLE it was to do a 3 to 4 minute video. There was LOTS of editing!! It probably didn't help that we were consuming sangria at the time. So here we are...The ChatterBox and Joan of All Trades...sister's extraordinaire!




Hope you enjoyed our Chick Chat. If you made it here first, please hop on over to Christie's blog and leave a comment there as well even if you have to copy and paste. Thanks!

BTW, here are the other sisters who are participating in this month's Chick Chat. Please show them some love too:

Grand Pooba from Pooba and Lindee from The Orr Family Est. 2006

Lolli from Better in Bulk and Andrea from The Hatchers and Their Hatchling

Angie from The Arthur Clan and Drew from Happy Chaos

Get Your Suave On!


MomSelect and Suave Skin have teamed up to give women and moms a beautiful skin experience. They chose my sister Christie (aka The Chatterbox and 1 half of The Blogrollers) as one of the women to throw a Suave Skin "Shower Yourself Beautiful" in-home Shower to showcase their new skin products. Unfortunately, Christie has super-duper sensitive skin and is allergic to everything used in making most skin products. Anyhoo, this is where I come into play. Christie elected me to take her place since she could not sample the items herself. I received a ginormous box of Suave Skin products for FREE! What did I have to do in return? Throw a shower, give away the products, and talk about the Suave experience.


Let me start by saying I've been using the products ever since they arrived on my doorstep. The body wash smells so good, and the lotion takes care of my extra dry skin without feeling like I'm wearing Crisco Butter (if you have dry skin, you know what I mean). Also, thank you so much to Suave Skin for your mission to make women feel beautiful.

Each guest walked home with these products: Suave Naturals Apricot Exfoliating Body Wash and Advanced Therapy Body Lotion and the New Suave Naturals Wild Cherry Blossom Indulgent Body Wash.

One lucky lady won a fabulous foot spa thanks to Suave.

And what's a spa party without some wine and spirits? We sipped on some yummy Sangria by Savida. I'm very proud of myself because I actually bought fruit to cut up and put in the Sangria. We also had crackers, cheese, and salami.

Each guest got a chance to sample the products before taking them home. How did they like the products? Let's just say there was a lot of ooing and aahhing. And after the games of tennis we played prior to the shower, the body wash and lotion really came in handy!
We had an awesome Suave Skin experience! Thanks for showering us beautiful, Suave!
