Menu Monday

WOW... can't believe it is a new week already. At a family reunion this weekend I learned of the best chocolate ice cream receipe ever...it mimics a wendy's frosty. don't eat too much it's loaded with calories but oh my gosh is it ever good. That's why it's only good to make when there are a lot of people around to help you eat it.

Here's how:

16 ounces of cool whip
14 ounce can of sweetened condensed milk
1 gallon of chocolate milk

Pour condensed milk & cool whip into ice cream freezer pour chocolate milk to the fill line, stir the ingredients together, then turn on the machine and layer with ice & rock salt until frozen. YUM...

Real Housewives of New Jersey

OMG....love this show. It passed OC as my fave. I thought I wanted the lip injections until I watched this show. Um...no thanks i'll pass. And what planet does Danielle live on? Seriously, how can you whine you need someone to pay for you and then have your plastic surgeon put on a spa party? Go figure, what trash she is, I cannot believe what she just said, hmmm...... maybe that is why the guy won't come around you perhaps he's looking for someone with morals.

Caroline is my fave on this one, Jill on NY and probably Jeanna on OC. I can't stomach Atlanta at all.
What I'm reading this week:
Wonderful, just like her other novels. I haven't found a book of hers yet that I don't like. Great Patio read.

The Red Box

I have discovered the most wonderful thing....The Red Box. Movies rent for $1 per night. Input your email address and you'll receive a confirmation of rental and return. You can even reserve movies online. A most perfect thing I do declare. We've had one in our wallyworld forever but I just looked at it on my weekly trip. I've noticed the lines growing longer and longer as I passed by each time. This weekend I decided to jump in and do it. Amazingly easy.... Maybe they'll add games soon. Man, wish I had thought of this idea.
