CTMH Hostess Club!!!

Oh la la... a preview of new CTMH paper that isn't available til September 1st! I just finished this layout and love this paper :) I am starting a Hostess Club in October and this is going to be our first layout to make. Do you know what a Hostess Club is? Let me explain... the club is limited to 6 people, you must commit for 6 months. The club/group will meet at my house (I have selected Sundays once a month, or if you get a group of 6 we can have it whenever and wherever you'd like) during our meetings we will make a 2 page layout - no charge. The commitments mentioned above are for 6 months and you would purchase $25 of CTMH products each month (prior to or at the club meetings). Each month there would be a different hostess therefore each taking turns earning the FREE Hostess merchandise (minimum of $25 FREE each month, depends on sales of club members)Make sense? Its a great opportunity to make some layouts, chat with other scrappers and get some great CTMH products!!! Space is limited, so sign up soon... email me at scrappinadriane@yahoo.com Let me know if you have questions :)

Goodbye Purple wall...

I have been doing some remodeling the past few weeks, been working on the guest bathroom, living room and our bar, hence the post on saying goodbye to the purple/green bar. I will miss the purple wall, but looking forward to the faux painting and tuscany mural that we will be having painted this week!!!! :)

Today's CTMH gathering!

Today I had a CTMH gathering with my friend Dani, tomorrow is her birthday. She wanted everyone to make cards, we did 8 each! It was a lot of fun. The food was fabulous too!!!! I just wanted to post the cards we did...

CTMH August Stamp of the Month

Yeah! I had a little time this morning to play with this months stamp of the month, Free Spirit. I made this card and love the way it turned out :) the colors I used are Hollyhock and Chocolate, and had inspiration from a fellow consultant on one of my yahoo groups. I am going to be making this card tomorrow night with a bunch of ladies at a gathering... Enjoy!

To Remember...

Yesterday was a day to remember my grandmother, JoAnn Goetz. She was 80 and a loving woman - my favorite memory was when she would babysit me and she taught me how to play poker and we'd watch the Love Boat till we fell asleep in her bed.... Her urn was buried next to my grandfathers, Joseph O. Goetz, whom passed away 11 months ago, they are at Bay Pines National Cemetary, my grandfather was a vetern. After the ceremony we went to the Palm Pavilion on Clearwater Beach which is my grandmothers favorite restruant - the majority of us had the beer-battered shrimp, her favorite! It was a very emotional day :)

New Window Treatment!!!

I finally got my window treatment that I ordered at least a month ago :) Hubby installed it for me tonight. I don't like it as much as I spent on it, but I do really like it! I think it makes the dining room so much cozier...what do you think?

Bowling Layout

Oh so good recipe!!!

I made this recipe this week and oh, this was so good! I found this recipe in Easy Summer Meals by Cooking Light. Enjoy!

Breaded Pork Cutlets (would taste good with chicken too, i think)
2 slices white bread (I used whole grain wheat)
3/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoons dried rubbed sage (I had fresh in my garden, so I used a little less)
1/2 teaspoons dried sage (I also had fresh in my garden, so I used a little less)
8 boneless pork chops (1/4 inch thick) (I just had 2 butterflied ones)
1/4 cup all purpose flour
3 large egg whites, lightly beaten
2 teaspoons canola oil (i used vegetable, but next time probably will use peanut)
Cooking spray (didn't use)
4 lemon wedges (didn't have and don't think you really need)

*place bread slices in food processor, pulse until coarse crumbs (at least one cup). Place bread crumbs in shallow dish. *combine kosher salt, pepper, sage and thyme, sprinkle over both sides of pork. Place flour in shallow dish, place egg whites in another shallow dish. Dredge pork in flour, dip in egg whites, and dredge in breadcrumbs. Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add pork to pan. Cook 2 1/2 minutes until lightly browned. Lightly coat surface of chops which cooking spray, turn chops over. Cook another 2 1/2 minutes until done. serve with lemon wedges - OMG, so good!!!!

Sad day :(

Today is a sad day... my grandmother passed away this morning. Unfortunatly, it was expected to happen soon. This is my dads mom, my dad also lost his father 11 months ago - its been a tough year. Please send prayers and thoughts to my family. Thank you, God Bless.

You Are 68% Pure

You're pretty pure, and you have no plans on changing that. You do have a devilish side though... and it will probably get the better of you.
