Not that I've got anything planned yet!! I'm just trying to figure out what's ok and not ok  |
Anything goes. Your entry is a reflection of YOU and your ideas. The sky is the limit.  |

It actually looks like my house. Hubster vaccuums, I compute/stalk. I told him that MFT made a stamp out of us and when he looked he laughed and agreed. |

I gotta go nighty, night. I hope you finalists are able to get some sleep. I'd be up all night thinking about it. I can't wait to see what you all come up with.

We gave her a MP3 player (she wanted an iPod -- yeah, right!), and Chris filled it with all her favorite songs. She's been listening to it non-stop! We also gave her a Taylor Swift Christmas CD. She got some clothes and a jewelry kit from grandparents and godparents.
Saturday we're taking her and a few friends to see Disney's A Christmas Carol.
I told you it's a birthday week! |

I guess the short people got paired with the tall people to even the playing field. KJ might have the advantage with her concealed weapon.

Oh gosh Sara I know! I've got a lot going on too, but I'm trying to brainstorm during some down time at work and hopefully I'll get some good scrapping time this weekend. And then last night I kept dreaming about the competition. I dreamt that Monday came around and I still didn't know what I was going to make!

You poor thing!! At least you can dream. The bad thing is yesterday I took 1/2 an energy shot & an energy drink & I swear neither of them touched me. I don't know what I'm going to do b/c I don't drink coffee.
AAAAAHHHHHHH!!! |

Drink a pumpkin spice banana smoothie. It'll give you waaaay more energy than some dumb coffee or energy shots. Trust me on this one.

Crap, I guess that could qualify as a "tip." Julie is going to smack me around. Forget I said that. Go drink a giant big gulp of mountain dew, and call me in the morning. |

Ok, but please be advised that I don't recommend this until AFTER the contest heheh Gotta look out for my girl, Julie!
1/2 can pumpkin
1/2-1 banana (I use frozen chunks)
milk of some variety (about 1/2 -- 1 cup)
lots of pumpkin pie spice
some sort of non-refined sweetener (honey?) to taste
splash of vanilla
blend.
It's all really approximate. You need to keep tasting to get it right. I needed to add way more pumpkin pie spice than I thought I would.
That's a modified version of the one I make. Mine's a little "weirder." I make mine with pumpkin, banana, non-sweetened vanilla hemp milk, about 1/4 c of coconut milk, pumpkin pie spice, stevia, and vanilla. Yesterday I also added about a tablespoon of chia seeds which made it extra creamy and thick (yummy). And I also added a splash of apple cider, which made it AMAZING. I decided at that moment that Starbucks needs to combine their pumpkin spice and caramel apple spice and give me credit. |

Don't like nanners? You don't have to put them in... It just bulks it up and makes it thick-ish. You could just sub them with some ice or other fruit. And yes, the cider does cover it up a lot. Don't put a lot of cider in. Literally just a splash, or it will take over the whole drink. But then again, an apple cider smoothie doesn't sound half bad!
I also made pumpkin/banana/pear one day, which was VERY tasty, but I thought the odd grainy texture of the blended pear was a little odd. |

well what gives you the energy if you take the nanners out... no the nanners are ok, just not a strong flavor of them.
