National Pancake Day & Fat Tuesday is Today

Today is Fat Tuesday 2009 (so get your paczki today and don't worry about paczki calories for one day!) but it is also National Pancake Day. If you are near a participating IHOP today, they have free pancakes today between 10:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m.

I wish we had an IHOP near us. My kids would love that. We live in the boonies though so no IHOP nearby.

My sister sent me a link of a little girl singing. I had never heard of Connie Talbot before. I watched it and then went to YouTube to find some more. Watching this one made me cry:

Who's Going To See Twilight Friday?



I know my oldest wants to go see it on Friday, but we usually wait for movies to come out on video (you know how expensive it is to take six people to the movies)? I wouldn't mind seeing this one though at the theatre. The books were really good and the hoopla over it was enough to get my 11 year old to want to read the zillion pages in the first of four books (ok, not a zillion but several hundred).


So who is going to see Bella and Edward in Twilight next weekend (besides every teenager out there, lol)?

Million Dollar Friend Award


I received the "Million Dollar Friend Award" from MammaDawg:

Start copy - - - - -
“You are never a burden.. don’t ever think that. Friends need each other to pick them up when they are down and I would do nothing less. ” ~Dawn Drover

A Million Dollar Friend is the kind of person who instinctively knows what it means to be a good friend; this kind of person makes you look forward to the days ahead and fondly remember the days that have passed.

A million dollar friend is someone who not only pulls you up when you’re down, but also always finds a way to not let you fall.

"A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down" ~Arnold Glasow-

"It's the little things that matter, that add up in the end, with the priceless thrilling magic found only in a friend." ~Elizabeth Dunphy

The things we truly love stay with us always, locked in our hearts as long as life remains."
- Josephine Baker

You Here!

Post your nominees and tell the world what a million dollar friend to you means. That’s it!

I would especially like to nominate:

VMAs on MTV

I caught different parts of this show last night and flipped stations when people and/or performances came on that I didn't care to watch.

Rihanna opened the show and I thought her performance was really good. Her dancers coming out first the way they did I thought was great - - the walking dead. Reminded me a bit of thriller but different.

I saw Britney speak right before Rihanna came out and she looked good. Hope she's going to stay on the mend mentally.

Pink's performance was awesome except I was afraid she was going to flash us toward the end there. Sometimes it seemed her shirt was going to gap a bit too far and oopsie! I've always liked Pink and enjoyed her performance last night.

Lil Wayne - I had to turn the station. I can't stand that pants falling down crap. I like some hip hop and rap so it wasn't the music...I just couldn't get through the underwear showing, constant crotch grabbing. Maybe I am getting old. I just want to yell at them to pull their dang pants up and play with yourself in private (isn't that what you tell kids when they start to do this as kids?). It just seems disrespectful and inappropriate to me. UNDERWEAR...see the word "under" in there - you wear it UNDER your clothes.

The Jonas Brothers were cute. My daughters had no idea they were on last night or else they would've been begging to stay up. The host went after them a few times about their rings...I'm glad my kids weren't watching because the host was a little to blatant about sex and kids who choose abstinence.

Speaking of the host, Russell Brand - eh. He was a tad cute in looks (just a tad), though perhaps a bit too girlish. Sashaying around I can do without. I could have done without some of his humor too. I think this particular Brit giving Americans voting advice is silly...especially since he was so gung-ho for Barack Obama who I think is the worst candidate the Democrats could have representing them. I don't trust that man or his ties to "friends" like the hate spewing idiot reverend and his criminal friend. I don't know how a man so full of hate can carry the title "reverend". You can't be so close with a man for 20 years as Barack was and be so ignorant of the reverend viewpoints - it's not like the shouting hate spewing reverend kept his mouth shut about his opinions. Attending church for 20 years under this reverand who used his sermons to preach hate while Barack sat there. That tells me a lot about Barack Obama. Nor do I respect a man like Barack who allows his voting failures to allow more babies born alive during live birth abortions suffer and be allowed to die cruelly. Murder. Whatever a person's opinion on abortion in general, live birth abortions don't always work (don't always "kill" the babies in utero) and there were babies in 2nd and 3rd term pregnancies being born alive and allowed to basically suffocate over the next few hours until they died under his watch. He had the power to vote and change this and he only voted "present" the first time it came around (coward) and then voted it down the second time. By the third time, it finally passed. I wonder how many babies had been born alive during this time span with his voting failures that were allowed to suffer and die slowly and cruelly after their failed live birth abortion. As far as his wife - not who I want as a First Lady. Families of candidates, to me, are off-limits unless they get up and open their mouths like his wife does. She'd have been better to keep her mouth shut. Makes me question my previously high opinion of Oprah Winfrey. Ack! Got a bit sidetracked here...back to the sashaying Russell Brand. So Russell Brand's opinion of Barack, our current president, and anything else politic-related can suck eggs. It didn't belong on the VMAs. I don't watch award shows to see celebrities use them as their forum to offer their political opinions. Perhaps Russell Brand should just get a blog so he can give his opinions, like I do, lol.
