Mondayness

There are some jumbled thoughts rolling around in my head this morning and a confession I have to make so bear with me. Don't panic, the confession is really no big deal, just something I want to talk about really. Okay, we'll start with that. I totally fell off the weight watchers wagon this Saturday. I started out so good, I refused a donut from Cork's Donuts in the morning while we were checking out garage sales. That is a big deal because I LOOOOVE Cork's Donuts. If you're local and haven't tried them, go, eat and have a happy belly. On this occasion I decided to forgo the donut so I could celebrate Father's day the next day and not have used up extra points from my weekly allowance. We got home and I had a lean cuisine for lunch and then I made banana bread for Russ and his friends who came over to play games and help entertain a coworker who was here from Korea. 

This banana bread is delicious and addicting! It's the sour cream in the recipe that makes it so rich and wonderful. I had my kids watching a movie in my room and the baby was napping and I was all alone in the family room finishing a good book. It was bliss, the hot banana bread was calling to me and I decided I would enjoy one piece. I ate it and it was super good. Well the afternoon wore on and it was about 5pm, the kids and Russ had been eating tons of snacks and I had not. They were not hungry at all, I was starving. We needed to head to Walmart for some things so we just got ready to go without making any dinner. So what do I do? I grab two more pieces of banana bread off the plate and chow them on the way to Walmart! Then when we got home, I made easy and tasty chimichangas that are supposed to be "skinny"! I ate two and was so full and happy. Here's the thing though, I entered in both recipes yesterday to my account online and the banana bread is 8 points a slice and the chinichangas? 13 points each!!!!! Yeowzers! I used up 26 of my weekly allowance in one day!!! Good thing I didn't eat a donut too! Oh well, I still enjoyed my Chinese food with my dad yesterday and I just made up for it with popcorn for dinner. :) Very boring confession and I know that no one really cares, but I feel better now and it's my blog right?!

I got a new camera! It's nothing too fancy but it's new and takes MUCH better pictures than my really old one. This camera was also free which makes it even cooler! It's a Panasonic lumix pocket camera and fits in my purse wonderfully. Thanks to the one perk we get from Russ traveling for work, we redeemed a bunch of air miles and purchased a new camera! Did you know you can do that? How cool right? I will hopefully have more pictures for you now because I don't hate my camera!

 I have been taking some custom orders form my etsy shop and I just love it! It makes me so happy to make something to suit someone exactly. If you want to have something that I don't have listed just shoot me an email and we'll work together to get it just how you want it!  conniealibby@gmail.com

Oh other great news!!!! I have six diaper clutches available and I'd love to clear them out to make room for some summer patterns! So I'm having a sale on diaper clutches this week! 15% off with the coupon code "summer" at checkout. This code it only good for diaper clutches and only until Sunday. If you've been wanting one, snatch it up while it's on sale!  These make excellent baby shower gifts and are the perfect item for someone with an older infant too! They're so great for on the go diaper changes and super convenient when you don't need the whole diaper bag! Go to the shop and take a peak!

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend celebrating your Fathers! I just love my Dad so much and had a great time watching my kids honor their own dad all day. I'll post more on that tomorrow! Happy Monday all!
