And I am SOOOOOO excited!
You wanna know what I'm getting?
Wait for it.....
Wait for it.....
THIS!
And not just this, but also.....
THIS!
TWO COPIES of Pioneer Woman's brand spankin' new cookbook!
I haven't been this excited in, like,
FOREVAH!
I hope to be able to get BOTH of them autographed on December 7th in Atlanta, if I can get over my fear of crowds and strange places.
Ugh, now I started thinking about crowds and strange places and my tummy hurts and I feel anxious.
Hopefully I will make it.
It IS Pioneer Woman, after all!
OK, going back to my happy place now.I just wonder what in the world I can do with my second copy?
I mean, I can only use
ONE copy at a time....
Right?
I guess I will have to think of something to do with my other copy, after my attempt to get it autographed, of course.
Crowds.....Strange Place......
Happy Place, Happy Place, Happy Place...**whew**
I feel better now.
Speaking of Pioneer Woman, aka: Ree Drummond, Did any of you see her segment on the Bonnie Hunt Show today?
I'm sure I would have LOVED it had I been able to see it.
You see, my wonderful ABC affiliate decided to bust in during her segment to report a non-injury shooting that they had absolutely NO INFORMATION ABOUT!
UGH!
I yelled so loud (at the television) Jameson started crying. He thought something really bad had happened.
It HAD, Jameson just didn't see it that way.
Here is a snippet of the show.
Pioneer Woman on The Bonnie Hunt ShowIsn't she just the most precious thing?
Hopefully I will be able to catch the whole segment one day.

Onto another subject.....
Y'all's responses to the
"Great pumpkin mystery" has had me laughing hysterically!
Honestly, I have no idea what happened, but I have a few theories....
1. The pumpkin just had enough of this crazy, rainy Alabama weather and decided to give it up (or "melt" as my cutie-pie next door neighbor said to me).
(However, the other two pumpkins are still solid and non-mushy)
2. Since that particular pumpkin sat on the bottom step, it's possible that two little boys who were learning to ride their bicycles, using the bottom step as a jump-off point,
could have bumped into it a time or two (or 100) and finally dented it enough to allow the elements to attack it.
OR
3.
This little dude, who is no longer so "little".
He's been frequenting my front porch a lot lately and has already
destroyed chewed on my corn cobs and some of my fake pumpkins.
I'm sort-of leaning towards #2 AND #3 being the cause for the pumpkin's demise.
Since it is only a few days before Halloween and I don't normally have ANY trick-or-treaters, I will probably just leave them as-is. Who knows, ghosts saying "BO" may become the new style!
(Oh, and for the making them with fake pumpkins comments.....I wanted to make them with the fake pumpkins, but the only place I could find them (Hobby Lobby) wanted $23.00 EACH for them, and they weren't even the bigger sizes. Even with their usual 50% off, they were still way too expensive. If I can find any cheaper, I will definitely use them the next time. The fake one's would be much easier to paint and decorate, too.)
