WHOOOA!

Yesterday, we spent the hot, hot day at the lake. Not our normal lake spot. We were in our future "retirement" territory as my hubby says. His grandmom had some land out there, so who knows, we may have a nice retirement home...but it is in the middle of no-where land! :) We cruised through the land to check it out. He could pee off the porch (on our imaginary home right now...it is just land) and NOT A SINGLE PERSON would see him!

Anyway, we were crusin' with some friends on the water and saw this. I had never seen one before. An air chair? So gotta have one of these....does anyone out there have one or been on one?

Fun Friday!

Check out the side of my blog where it says: Weather in the AUG

Um, I am wearing a bikini.
That is a joke! Although it is hot as hell here. But no bikini for me. Wouldn't want to scare anyone! :)

Happy Friday!

Fun Friday

Let me leave you with these lyrics. Today is my first official day! SCHOOOOOLLLL's OUT FOR SUMMMMMA!

Well we got no choice
All the girls and boys
Makin all that noise
'Cause they found new toys
Well we can't salute ya
Can't find a flag
If that don't suit ya
That's a drag

School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's been blown to pieces

No more pencils
No more books
No more teacher's dirty looks

Well we got no class
And we got no principles
And we got no innocence
We can't even think of a word that rhymes

School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's been blown to pieces

No more pencils
No more books
No more teacher's dirty looks

Out for summer
Out till fall
We might not go back at all

School's out forever
School's out for summer
School's out with fever
School's out completely

Am I a LOSER?

Maybe...you tell me. My hubby goes out with his friends every Thursday night. So who wants to sit at home all alone? Most of my friends have babies or are "too old" to go out and rockstar with me on Thursday nights. So last night I went BY MYSELF. Yep, first time eva...to see Sex and the City. I must say I think I was the oldest person there. It was at 12:01 am. It was a bunch of like twenty-something girls. But it was packed and funny. I definitely was not staying at home and I tried to find some takers but no one wanted to go that late with me. What a bunch of woosies! I think the movie was cute but it was 2 1/2 hours long..so I did not get home until after hubby! And when he called I could not answer because I was at a movie!!!

Edisto Shrimp

Tonight's dinner included some shrimp from Edisto my parents brought back to us from their weekend at the beach. I found a good way to cook them:
It was called " Louis Lagarde" Shrimp. And I am impressed with my recipe. Apparently he was a famous colonel who wrote a book about Gunshot Injuries back in the day. So maybe it will make ya shot someone it is so spicy. Actually it was pretty damn spicy (had cayenne pepper) in it. I found it in my 'Pon Top Edisto cookbook I have and it was good with some french bread (to sop up ya sauce with) and some cheese grits and some roasted green beans (my new favorite...I could eat them EVERY night!!!!)
Here are what the leftovers look like:
If you want the recipe, let me know! :)

Well, here it is:
Louis Legarde Shrimp

Watch Out Martha

Watch out Martha, Here I Come!!!!!!

Just kidding. But I am very impressed with my wine cork wreath! Whatcha think? I mean I think I could start a little business (ha!) but it was rather easy thanks to my cousin's wife who gave me a whole bag of corks (they are caterers)....but it took a whole lotta hot glue, too! My ribbon is a little off centered...but oh well!
