5 Songs...

Five songs to speak to me or bring back memories... here we go:

1. Britney Spears: Baby One More Time... reminds me of freshmen year of highschool. Cheerleading practice. Thinking that wearing boys boxershorts to practice in was cool. Gross. http://youtu.be/C-u5WLJ9Yk4

2. Gloria Estefan: Conga.... when I was about 5 or 6 I was convinced I sounded just like her when I sang and I knew ALL the words to this song http://youtu.be/MVDWJpr4tOc

3. Lil John & Eastside Boys: Get Low.... reminds me of college, sophomore year. Getting shwaaasstyyy at a dive called Chan's and dancing with my girlfriends. Oh the good days! http://youtu.be/IYH7_GzP4Tg

4. Travis Tritt: T R O U B L E... the band at Jubilee's on Pensacola Beach always sang this for me every Friday night as I sat with my friends and watched my dumb boyfriend drink his face off. I wasn't old enough at the time, and the bar isnt' even there any more but that's ok. The song still makes me giggle cause I felt super special that the band liked our group so much. http://youtu.be/I5Mwig3VqXg

5. Frank Sinatra: The Best is Yet To Come.... the song my husband and I danced to at our wedding. Enough said :) http://youtu.be/42IWC7TZJdo

Random food post

My husband doesn't like eggplant. A lot of people don't...and I knew that as I prepared our dinner this evening. Nevertheless, I was determined to make the pasta sauce so delicious he wouldn't notice the eggplant. In that feat, I failed. BUT the sauce was STILL AMAZING!!!! Even he admitted it as he asked to swap the eggplant for something else like spicy sausage or whatever.  Got my recipe from Cuisine magazine and it was phenomenal. Plenty for 2 more servings!!! Be jealous :)

A letter to my readers

Sometimes, more often than not, I sit down to this little ole' blog and have ABSOLUTELYNOTADANGCLUE what to write.  I actually started this blog when I was a single gal as a way to connect with other ladies like me- late 20's and just doing my own thing.  It was originally titled "cocktalesandstiletthoes". No man. No pressure. Just trying to have fun.  The title was a combo of my dating stories-to-be [that never really happened], plus a play on words cause Lord knows my day ain't complete without a few sips of wine, annnnd plus shoes..shoes. shoes. I love shoes. Ask anyone. (it was the ONLY thing I insisted on with my bridesmaids, since I saw way too many wedding photos where, in my opinion, the bridesmaids' shoes RUINED the photos). Seriously.

Sometimes I just start a post and then save it to save my sanity and collect my thoughts.  Other times I have a moment in my day where a whole post strikes me at one time and I just can't type it out fast enough! Those are the moments I love... that was the majority of many of my first posts from 2011. They were rather snarky, but it was a few years of annoying crap [to me] that I just had to get out there. Hell, if other women can blog about their outfits every day and make a living, I can certainly share my sarcasm and humor with the world...for FREE!!! Now I am getting my tiny little photography career off the ground one snap at a time, and living on the beach in Southern California with my two kitties and awesome husband.  God is funny and has a plan for us all. This is NOT AT ALL what I thought it would be for me, but it's pretty dang great so far. Anyway, my point with this is to thank anyone who has followed this blog from the beginning until now.  I feel the tone has evolved to fit me as a person and what I want to share. From sassy and single to sassy and married, sassy is my constant and that's just that. Thanks for stopping by!!!!! :)
