Wordless Wednesday - Halloween already has a hold of me.



Orange glitter toes + Halloween rub-ons = cuteness.

I also did Punk's toes but didn't get a picture. Hers are the same orange, with a spider on one toe and a ghost on the other.

A little rough around the edges.

I keep seeing this post popping up. The first time I saw it was on Von's blog and after reading it, it kind of changed my world up.

My sign: I am sick of being someone else to fit in.

Whether it's into the stupid little blogger cliques (if you don't think there is one, you're in it - sorry), or with people in my day-to-day life, or my neighbors; because even fake me isn't good enough.

I've been a bit MIA lately and it's been on purpose.

This blog is only partially me. The other parts are what I think people want me to be, and even through typing that's pretty damn exhaustive.

I'm not going away. Not by any means. But expect changes. I will probably lose readers. But at this point, I'm not really getting rich doing this so what does that matter? I'll apologize in advance for making anyone mad, or offending anyone; that's not my intent. But I have got to be myself before trying to be someone I'm not kills me.

I'll be back. Me, not the super cheerful person who doesn't swear and is kind of boring that's been writing this blog for the past four years.

My Memories - review PLUS giveaway PLUS discount!


My Memories Suite is this super awesome digital scrapbooking software. I had never done any digital scrapping, so when they contacted me to do a review, I was all over it. I have had a ton of fun playing with it! There are pre-made scrapbook pages and kits that all you need to do is drop pictures in and journal. There are page templates so you can choose your patterns and colors. And, you can start with a completely blank page and do whatever you want with it. I actually made a super simple birthday card. The best part is that you can print it right out, and the software makes it very obvious as to what may not print because of margins, so that you don't cut off important parts. Their digital scrapbooking software is pretty awesome, if I do say so myself. I'm totally new to digital and it was very easy for me to figure out.

Want to purchase it? Go here, and use the coupon code STMMMS5671 for $10 off! Sweet, eh?

Want to WIN IT?! Of course you do. Here's how:

Go to their site and pick out your favorite scrapbooking kit, then come back here and tell me which one it is. Simple!

Want extra entries? Make sure to leave a separate comment for each thing you do or it will only count as one. Do any or all of these for the best chance at winning!

1. Head on over and follow their blog
2. Become a fan of their Facebook page
3. Follow them on Twitter

Make sure to do everything you want and comment before midnight on Tuesday, October 4th. I'll pick a winner shortly thereafter and will contact them via e-mail (make sure to leave your e-mail address if it isn't in your profile).

I did get a copy of the software for free, but I only posted my own opinions here for you to read. I was not influenced or persuaded by the free software to post positively.

Farm Rich stuffed pretzel bites - a review and a giveaway!

I've posted about Farm Rich before. They are a good company that makes really yummy freezer snacks.

They just recently launched a new appetizer, stuffed pretzel bites, and asked if I would like to review them. Uh, yes please! They are little bite-sized pretzels stuffed with cheese. Yum? Uh huh. They are especially good when they are warm; when they cool down the cheese gets more solid and I didn't love the texture. But I've heated them in the oven and in the microwave and both ways were good, which is awesome. I love that I can toss a few in the microwave when I want just a few. Even more awesome is that every serving has only 110 calories and 3 grams of fat. Sweet!

Want to try them for yourself? Or have you been eying another Farm Rich treat you'd like to try? Well then, enter right here to win a coupon for a free bag! I've got three lovely coupons so three of you lucky people can try them out.

Just leave me a comment as to what you'd like to try from Farm Rich. Want an extra entry? Follow them on Facebook or Twitter. Leave an extra comment for each thing or else it only counts as one entry, mmmkay?

Enter through Monday, September 26th and I'll pick three winners shortly thereafter using Random.org.

[I did get a coupon for a free bag from them, to try out the stuffed pretzel bites. That didn't affect my opinion at all and I posted because I wanted to, not because I had to. Thanks.]
