quiche and eggnog

Made the quiche again that we had awhile back yet I added mushrooms this time. It was so good.

blizzard on the way

it's funny that I bitched about the snow today because we actually get to leave work early to avoid a huge blizzard that is on it's way
 
but the conversations tomorrow will be entertaining nonetheless
 
 

Thankfully


I am thankful for Coffee

This package is my favorite kind and with lot of creamer it's perfect

Weekly Confessional



This is a rant/confession.

The big snow has finally fallen in UT. Now as much as I hate it I learn to deal with it for the next long, dark, wrist-cutting months. A lot of people who have grown up here hate it too and with that we get to hear everyone bitch about every time we get dumped on. I bitch, yes. But it's the ones who act surprised when it snows. "Like, OMG! Can you believe how much it snowed last night?"

Yes. We live in UT.

Have you never heard of the saying Greatest Snow on Earth - no? You were born here right? You're an adult who has driven and lived in this crap your entire life yet when it snows you act like God took a dump on your yard AND you have the audacity to be offended.

We had a good Fall this year. We actually had a Fall that lasted longer than a week; it was lovely. Now knowing that Winter usually follows Fall you would think that you would start to pull out the warmer clothes and accessories like gloves, scarves and boots. (Unless you're a Stepford Wife - you've been wearing UGGS all Summer long) Fall is sort of like the prepping season for Winter. It slowly begins to get colder in order to ease wimps like you into Winter. YOU KNOW IT'S COMING. STOP ACTING CAUGHT OFF GAURD WHEN IT SNOWS. BUY A FUCKING WINDOW SCRAPPER TOO!!! LEAVE WORK EARLY YOU IDIOT!! WATCH THE WEATHER ON YOUR FANCY SMART PHONE.


One more thing, could you FINALLY learn how to drive in the damn snow? It's not that hard you just have to SLOW THE FUCK DOWN! Pump your breaks! Do you know what I'm talking about? That means don't slam on your breaks when the roads are wet/slushy/snow-packed/icy. Follow those two rules and you will be fine unless a semi truck runs you off the road but let's face it if you're one of the slow ones I'm talking about you probably deserve it.

YOU LIVE IN UTAH - IT SNOWS HERE!


I'm getting ready to post the Ask Husband Anything answers but getting Tyrone to finalize his answers is a little difficult with as much as he works. It shouldn't be hard since he answered half of them in the comments and there wasn't a lot of questions to begin with (which is funny because it's the post with the most hits right now). I LOVE THE QUESTIONS WE DID GET. SERIOUSLY. If you still want to play you have time.

I have received one Guest Post so far and it's scheduled to make it's fantastic appearance on December 1st. It's a good one, I can't wait for you to read it. If you're still wanting to participate you have time. I'm thinking that I may have enough for about one a week for the month of December unless I get more - which is totally fine. If you would like to join the fun email me at brandysonzenmasterflash@gmail.com.

a holiday party and a free night at the Hilton

view from or room on the 18th floor
I felt very in-mature at this party

although they served packets of pop rocks which were right up my alley. they even put pop rocks on the cheesecake. shaddup!!

a peppermint martini with grey goose. yum! and totally complimentary!

Saturday night we spent the evening at Ty's sister's house eating hot-as-hell wings, drinking wine, and watching some UFC fights. I usually hate watching it but I had enough wine in me to enjoy the crap out of it.

Sunday I attempted taking my nephew's one year pictures but being as he hates me they didn't go over so well. I think I'll post the pics anyways for entertainment value. We did manage to get a decent family picture of my brother and his little family. 

Oh and I actually bought red hair dye. Now I just need to do it.
