I scream! You scream! We all scream for COFFEE!!!

Decorating has been on my mind as of lately.

Well, ok.  It’s ALWAYS on my mind.  Wish it weren’t, but it is.

 

Thanks to lovely Pinterest, I just did a cool coffee station in my dining room.  One of my good friends “pinned” it to one of her boards and I just had to do it in my own house.

Having a coffee station allows you to free up much needed counter space.  I have a Bunn coffee maker, so it sticks really far out and it really only worked in one place on my counters.

This is my version.  (I know the shelf is off center, so I fixed it.  Just wasn’t smart enough to post another pic reflecting that).

I snagged this cabinet at Homegoods.  I had seen it one day and told myself that if I went back a few days later and it was there, I would get it.  Anybody who has been to a Homegoods knows that you can go there, fall in love with something, and then go back an hour later and it’s GONE!  They have such great deals on things, that they fly out of the store.  Especially furniture pieces.

I love it because not only can I put my coffee there, but now I have a spot for my wine.

This bottle looks lonely right now, but soon she will have lots of friends to play with.  : ) › Continue reading

Change:

can be good.  Change can be very good.

 

 

 

 

For instance:  My husband is very glad we changed from cable to satellite so that he can finally get his NFL Sunday ticket……

 

 (This is how NFL Sunday tickets make him feel.)

 

 

Change, however, can make you tired.  (Like in my case)

(This is exactly how I feel).  Moving has definitely kicked my toosh! › Continue reading

Z’s Yummy to my Tummy Ribs!

Let me just start by saying we love RIBS!  We are definitely in the “carnivore” family.  I tried it once….. LITERALLY ONCE in the “herbivore” family and I think it lasted all of 24 hours and that is stretching it.

I have nothing against Vegetarians.  In fact, I eat A LOT of veggies, but I just can’t cut out meat.

So!  I find it only fitting to showcase, what I like to call my hubby’s “Yummy to my Tummy Ribs”!

I feel like they are perfect for a Southern Cookout!

I really love these things!

He tries to give me all the credit, but the truth is…..  I PREP……  HE COOKS!

Here is what WE do:

Take a pack of baby back ribs.  I shop at Sam’s Club a lot, so I always find a pack of 3 slabs there. › Continue reading

Christmas in July!

It has been hot here as of lately.  I mean really HOT!  However, I realize I am not telling you anything new that you haven’t discovered yourself.

If you live pretty much anywhere in the United States, it is probably unbearably hot right now.

SO!

I thought to myself……  “How can I make these Crazy Hot Dog Days of Summer Better?”

Then all of a sudden I heard a voice….. (*don’t worry, I’m not crazy)

However,

The voice said, “Then he puzzled and puzzled till his puzzler was sore.  Then the grinch thought of something he hadn’t before!”

WAIT!  THAT’S IT!

CHRISTMAS!  CHRISTMAS IN JULY!

Then I heard Jingle Bells and White Christmas and Rockin Around the Christmas tree! (Ok, so maybe I’m a little Crazy.)

 REGARDLESS!   It was going to be Christmas at the Zimmerman’s that night!

First, we had to make cookies. › Continue reading
