Hobie's Secret

October 20, 2010

Hobie loves when I get free stuff!
Well...he loves the sacks the free stuff comes in. :)

He actually got his head got in the handle of the Paula Deen sack my journal came in. I went into my panic mode and screamed for Zach to come help me. He, of course, calmly removed said cat's head from the bag and asked how in the world it got there.

(I also love Victoria's Secret for the tissue paper they use...but I had to keep Hobie away from it. He likes to chew and shred paper and cardboard. So I continue my never-ending supply of hot pink and light pink!!)

Did I mention Hobie also likes to sleep in a pink chair?

Best Dishes, Y'all!!!

October 18, 2010

Bobby and Beverly went to Savannah during the last week of their vacation, and they brought us back Savannah gifts.

This one is mine. :)
I LOVE Paula.
And I already know which recipe is going in here first!

10-2-4...What do we adore?!

Do you know how heavenly Dr. Pepper with real sugar tastes?
*siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh*

It doesn't have that yucky aftertaste of DP after it begins to warm up. It's smooth and slightly berry-flavored. :)
Ahhh, I love it. Even more than Throwback Pepsi.
And the can is as charming as Throwback Mountain Dew!

[I think we should have bought one more case...]

Arkansas State Fair

I love the fuzzy-headed chickens!

October 16, 2010

Zach's college roommate Brandon and his wife Anna invited us to the State Fair. We had a blast!

We looked at all the animals (chickens, ducks, turkeys, geese, a few pigs and horses, goats, etc.) and finally got to see some bunnies.

We went on Saturday, which was also the day of the Race for a Cure, and the fair put on a Hoppin' for the Cure rabbit parade in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month and to support the Susan G. Komen Foundation. The building housing the bunnies was decked out in pink and white ribbons and streamers. (It was much classier than the horse barn full of the rodeo queens blinged-out horseys.)

This sweet white bunny won and was honored with a sugary pink coating like a Peep! Her cage with decked out with the pink ribbons and trophy she won! (I don't know if "she" is actually female, but I think she must be to win...)

And some other cute bunnies:

This goat was sticking his head under the stall to get to some munchies...and us! We also saw chickens packaged in vegetable boxes to be moved: "That's not a carrot!"

[We also watched a cute monkey show, which also included a money-stealing bird and a scary baboon. Zach and I missed the tiger show from last year and the sugar gliders that we always visited in the Hall of Industry for the past two years, but the monkey show was a lot of fun.]

Of course no fair experience is complete without the proper food, and we partook in corn dogs, lemonade, funnel cakes, kettle corn, and fried jalapeno cheese that set our mouths on fire. There was so much from which to choose! I love fair food. :)

I'm glad to know that we're not the only ones who don't ride rides, although I did miss the Ferris Wheel. But there's always next year! Most of the rides are insane and would make me feel like I was in a car wreck. Ick.

[We also ran into Rob, Mechelle, Jamie, and Joyce. Twice. :]

It was so nice to properly meet Brandon and Anna. Hopefully we'll get to venture to their cabin soon!

Catfish: Documentary or Mockumentary?

Catfish: Do you think this is a documentary or a mockumentary? That is, do you think this happened?

I do.
At least--I think it's possible.
But it also reminds me of how Paranormal Activity was created, structured, and filmed.
So...?
;)

The trailer was definitely misleading, but it was an all-around enjoyable film to watch. I couldn't turn away, and thank goodness we didn't get any popcorn, or I would have probably been stuffing my face with it.
I have never seen a tragedy like this one.
