Wordless Wednesday and the monkey-frog!

William got this cute new chair over the weekend and says "bi-bit, bi-bit" every time he goes near it. He thinks the monkey is a frog!!

Some things you may never hear

My blog buddy Sammy over at To Unravel is the King of random. Seriously, if you ever read his posts you would become completely immersed in his randomness. He wrote this one post entitled the Rootabaga line up and I put in my two cents. The point behind it all was listing 10 things you will NEVER hear. Some are from people, some are even from inanimate objects. Either way, I'm 99% sure you will never ever ever ever hear! So here we go, my 10 things are:

1. Wow, that Nikki Minaj is a true talent!
2. No problem random stranger, I will gladly change your baby's poopie diaper.
3. Pam Anderson's body and face look so natural!
4. I'd like to order one brussel sprout burger with a side of eggplant fries.
5. Can't wait for the price of gas to go up!
6. I wish the laundry would never end.
7. I want a parking ticket so badly.
   
8. Scraping wallpaper is so much fun!
9. Oh please let this tree fall on my house!
10. I'd prefer my Chinese food be prepared by Italians.

Play along if you wish!

My sweet friend Tricia has her own business with Thirty-one gifts.

There are so many nice styles and patterns to choose from for every taste. If you are a more seasoned mom like I am then you might not carry a traditional baby bag. Wouldn't it be neat to have a bag with your baby's name on it that is in a cute pattern that reflects your style? Check these sweet cinch sacs that Tricia had made for her daughter and a friend. How adorable are they? They are perfect for sleepovers, day trips or even going to the pool or beach.

Cooking question

Please don't judge me for asking this question...
Do you reuse cooking oil that you fried food with? I don't know what it is and I get talked about all the time but I am repulsed at the idea of reusing oil! This is the reason I only fry maybe 3-5 times total per year. There is just no way you can get me to use the oil that I fried 3 pounds of fish in next time for chicken. Nope, not happening. I know that when you order something friend in a restaurant that they are using the same oil over and over. I guess as long as I don't see it then I'm okay. I usually let my oil cool all the way down when I finish frying and I fill it in a bottle and throw it in the trash. What about you? What do you do with your used oil?

He'll sleep anywhere!

Poor guy was sitting in his high chair when the sleepiness hit! I just had to snap a photo :)
