My new look!

Hey friends, I wanted to show you my new look!
This is me:

Now, I personally think I look like a more professional journalist.. It most defiantly matches my last name, because I tell everyone I know that Heather Leigh Riley sounds like a book author! ;)

Mr. George. The best monkey in the whole wide world! Oh, and Pocky!

Happy Monday, friends! I hope you've had a lovely weekend. I hope you had a chance to sleep in, read great books, snuggle with your stuffed monkey, hang out with your friends, go on walks with your hubby, and eat lots of waffles and have a bowl of Ice cream. Or maybe that's only my ideal weekend. ;)

Now, I am very good for the whole week! I work out,eat my fruits and veggies, so on the weekends I like to reward myself with a little something! ;)
This is me:

Have you ever had a childhood friend that you could call only yours? Who only played when you wanted to play, and never played with anyone else unless you were playing too? maybe a friend who never left your sight (unless he got lost for a short time) And went every where with you and was your cuddle buddy every night! Sigh.... This is my Childhood friend George:
This Monkey is legit! He is the best monkey around. And even though he's missing five of his fingers, and two toes from some unfortunate events with our dog. He's still in really good shape! ;) Thanks George, You are the woody doll in my life!

Have you ever dipped a "pocky stick in tea??? It's really good! But I guess it really depends on what tea you stick it in. I wouldn't recommend Echinacea tea.. Uck! I'm drinking Numi (that's the brand name) Moroccan Mint. I love tea!

Apple Waffles!

Hey beauties, and gentlemen =] Happy weekend! Hope you are having a great one at that!
I sure am! Well, I shall tell you why I am having an enchanted weekend. I made a waffle invention! Yes, while I was craving blueberry waffles, it turned out blueberries, we lacked there of. So, I had to make plan waffles. But as I was mixing the batter this wonderful idea popped in my mind "APPLE WAFFLES"!!! So I crushed up some waffles in a bowl and mixed cinnamon along with it, and I added vanilla to the batter. It was most delightful <3. I have learned that this invention is fantastic with Peanut butter! If you are a PB lover as I proudly am, you should defiantly try this! Unless you don't like apples,cinnamon,vanilla,or waffles that is. But if you do, this recipe is very good! It requires: 1 Apple. A tsp of cinnamon. A Tsp of vanilla. And waffle mix of any kind. (The directions on the box will tell you how to make the actual waffles ;). You can add more or less to the waffles. I usually like this measurement for a serving of five. I really hope you enjoy them! Oh, and if someone already thought of these before me. Please don't rain on my waffle maker. I would love to remain proud of this piece of work! =]




OH! This factoid won't matter to many of you but, for those of you who remember the BBC version of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe that came out in the 80's ... did you know that the actress Lesley Nicol plays Mrs Beaver?! She also plays Mrs Patmore on Downton Abbey. You are welcome. =]
