Tuesday's Tribute (a day late!)



Guilty Pleasures....that's what this Tuesday's Tribute is all about. I have lots of them, how about you?

First there are those oh so lovely food treasures .... you know, the ones that you feel guilty about after you eat them...but enjoy EVERY SECOND of the gorging? One of mine is Panera Bread's Asiago Cheese Bagel... one word: SCRUMPTIOUS!!! (I don't even think that word covers it!). Seriously...you absolutely must try one!

Then to go along with the bagel...there is my favorite guilty pleasure drink: Starbucks Carmel Machiatto! OH. MY. GOSH!!! What's not 'happy' about this tantalizing, warm, frothy coffee sensation?! There is coffee (great!), Carmel (even better!), & it's topped off with whipped cream!!! Nuff' said!! :)

There are so many guilty pleasures to interrupt, ummm...I mean, help you enjoy the day! For instance...TV!! Which leads me to the next guilty pleasure....The DVR!! Oh how much joy Brian and I missed when we didn't have the DVR!! ;) How else would we be able to watch all of our favorite shows...most of them on at the same time? I wouldn't truly be able to enjoy my Tuesday night Bible Study with the ladies (totally joking ladies...you know I love you!) if I wasn't able to record American Idol!!! And oh how we love to record our favorite show "24" so that we can fast forward through the commercials! That show is just too good to have to wait until a commercial is over in order to see what Jack Bower is going to do next! "Lost" is on tonight & I sooooo can't wait! You can get totally confused, yet it is soooo addicting that you can't turn away! :) These are just a couple of our TV guilty pleasures....of course there are more, thus the need for the DVR...but I won't bore you! ;)

The Wii!!! Oh my gosh...it is sooooo much fun! I had been wanting one for so long & it took my Mother in Law to be with us at Wal-Mart, for me to get one! (Thanks Mom B!) Brian wanted the Play Station 3....I won thanks to her! ;) Anyway, I love that you have to get up on a lot of the games and move around! Dakota loves playing too! Plus, I just got the Wii Fit and that has been a blast! It doesn't feel like a workout because you are having fun while burning those calories! Of course, you have to get past the beginning where you make your character & then the mysterious Wii voice insults you on how out of shape, out of balance, and FAT you are! But, I guess I am a gluten for punishment...because I continue to go back!

Blackberry Curve!!!! Ooooooh yes...I was warned! 'It will be addicting!!' Boy were they right! But....I LOVE IT!! I can hook up all of my favorite computer guilty pleasures (like FB, Twitter, Email, etc) and access them all from this wonderful little phone/computer thingy!!! :) At the store...I can update my FB buddies or Tweets! (like they really care) Need directions ... it's right in my phone! Want to text? I can do that too! To think we used to live without these little devices.....however did we manage?? Oops.....gotta run...heard a beep on my Blackberry....will it be a FaceBook update, an email message, a text....I can't wait to find out!! :)
