Ain't Cheap!

So today we headed off to Pacific Sales aka Best Buy to purchase all new appliances. After doing his homework, hubby had a good idea of what we wanted. So Baby Girl and I headed over to Los Feliz today to do a bit of shopping...well, it turned out to be a lot. What was nice about Pacific Sales was that they weren't overly pushy and what I hate most is salespeople. Even at the mall they freak me out. We had gone to Sears the other weekend and we had several salesmen and women approach us until we finally let one talk to us. We went in to Pacific Sales and a nice guy in his twenties came up and struct up a conversation. After 5 minutes I knew he was cool and progressed to let him show us appliance after appliance. He was very knowledgable about all the products. He took us through stoves, fridges, stove hoods, garbage disposals, washer and dryers, and dishwashers. What was nice is that he was telling us the pluses and minus of a few products and he let choose what we liked. We ended up going with LG products so that our kitchen will look uniform. Additionally, we have all stainless steal products. Even the washer and dryer are a grey color. I am sooo excited. How many times in your life can you go into a store and buy all new stuff? Not many. This was a real treat for us. For all of our shopping efforts our sales guy threw in free $1500 pots and pans from Germany and a knife set. Hubby and i had to laugh because he made a big deal about the cost of the pots and pans. Hubbers and I were why don't you just deduct $1500 from our total and forget the pots? Anyhow, we got out at the price we thought we spend. We got a ton of items on sale. Pacific Sales price matches so we got the best prices in town. Now to see everything in our new kitchen!

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Surfing Goat Diary

We left the store and headed to the Surfing Goat Diary, again, this was a second trip for us but what was different this time is that we scheduled an hour long tour. Last time we arrive right before closing and were rushed. We spent a fair amount of time there exploring before the tour. We tried their cheesecake, we met the cats and dogs that roamed the place, we played in the playground, we pet and fed the baby goats that were penned up, and pursued the little store. Penny was eager to get her hands on the chocolate goat milk truffles. I must admit they did look good. I had my eyes on a t-shirt and a mug. Our tour started at 3:30pm that day and we met all the goats and learned all about the farm. But the most exciting part of the tour was getting the opportunity to milk the goats. Penny was quite a good milker. A friend later reminded me that Penny was breastfed (wink, wink). By the time the tour ended we were extremely hot. Maui was hot but also humid. We were ready to...

Vaccine Part 1

As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen.  If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public.  Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me.  Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....
