A Breather...

I realize that my blog has been a little lack-lustre lately. Boring, snore, snooze, lame, blah, puke... what other descriptions have been popping up in your head lately. Yes, i can hear the snickering, the confusion, the yawns... "but usually she is so funny nori, i just don't get it..."
I know, I know. It's not like i have not had anything to say, oh i have. I wish I could write about the drama at my work, but in order to protect my hienie, i cant say anything. Tomorrow is a new day, this weekend I am going to put my job behind me and do fun little things that make me smile.
But don't give up on Superfluous just yet... she just needs a breather.
I did make kitchen curtains though, and chocolate angel pie for my mom. Being domestic makes me feel happy. Happiness is nice.

Megan I too miss PVM & Here is your Confession Tuesday

First of all here is my confession for Tuesday:





I watch the movie The Day After Tomorrow every time it is on tv. I really can't stand that movie, yet every time it's on, I drop everything, sit down and actually watch the whole thing. This movie is not to be confused with Armageddon or Deep Impact. That is Ben Affleck and Frodo Baggins, this is Jake GyllenSpoon. So when I watch The Day After Tomorrow there must be some sort of mind control subliminal message thing going on. Because about half way through I'm eating cat food out of the bag, thinking about Menudo.

Megan wants to know if there is a correlation between me not blogging me getting a new haircut and yes there is a correlation. I got the haircut to look fierce for work, and once i was back to work, I got so very busy that the last thing i want to do lately is sit and blog.
I've been doing a lot of reading and laying in the hammock when I'm not at work.
I wish i had more energy to write but I am in the process of making some cottage chic curtains and I must be getting to them. Domestication calls.


XOXO... will write more soon.

Also...Today is my mom's birthday and she still is smokin' hot! Happy Birthday Mom!
I'm not sure if she is pregnant with me in this picture, but either way i just think she looks really pretty.

What's the story Morning Glory?

The story is that I have lots to say, but I'm too tired to say it. So bare with me (do you know that by saying BARE with me, it is an invitation to take off your clothes?) So I guess I should say Bear with me, unless of course you are going to quickly read this and then jump in the shower so in that case Bare with Me and Bear With Me, except that i really dont want you to BARE with ME, I mean I am a prude, so I guess what I should just say before the FCC shuts me down is: BEAR with me as a I compartmentalize my thoughts into neat blog worthy posts. Superfluous will be back. When? It's really like questioning the Apocalypse. You know its going to happen, you fear its arrival, and yet like Christmas you patiently wait for it year after year.
Oh and BTW...... YOUR MOM IS A PALINDROME!

My BFF has a Blog!!!

Wow! Rachel has a blog!
Maybe to you this is not along the same order as the loaves and fishes, but to me it is!
A) because she's a busy mother to a newborn and a toddler! eeek!
B) because she's not one to broadcast her life.
C) because I think she would rather be watching Felicity than blogging.

My BFF extraordinaire Rachel has now joined the land of the living bloggers. (Is this opposed to deceased bloggers?) Please embrace her with open arms as she enters our world!
You can check her out over at Picture Perfect.
(Hey Charlsh... i hope you don't mind me giving you a shout out! You can reprimand me all you want. Kinda like the time i made a big fuss over you giving the morning announcement at the Mansion. I still like to sing your praises!)

Confession Tuesdays

This is my new thing. Everyone's doing it! Heather from the EO has Suck Up Sunday's, Joolee from A Spot on the Sopha has The Thing about Thursdays, even Sensible of Shoe was doing Pink Saturdays (what happened to that?) So now I'm jumping on the band wagon and doing my own day of the week themed blog. This one will be titled Confession Tuesdays. I am not a priest, although i did almost go to Seminary last year, so feel free to fess up too.

My confession this week is:


I LOVE Kraft Easy Mac!!!!

I know, the horror!

Gourmet girl goes ghetto. (and she's not afraid to tell!)

Operation Baking Gals In the Mail!

A few weeks ago I wrote about a group of women I joined called Operation Baking Gals. I belong to a team of women who have been sending baked treats to some special troops overseas this past week. Today I made some Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies from a recipe by my favorite baker, Dorie Greenspan. So off my cookies go along with some other treats, to some deserving soldiers across the world.
