FLIPpin’ Awesome Giveaway

Hey everyone! How’s your morning going?? If you enjoyed a long weekend (yeahhhhh), here on some things that went down on the bloggy:

Summer Shape Up Week 2 Workout went up!

-We planted our little garden

and

enjoyed a lovely date night

Last night, the pilot finally got the shrimp and prosciutto penne pasta he’d been hankering for:

shrimp pasta

Recipe is in *this cookbook*

I rolled with spelt pasta, olive oil, garlic, basil and tomato

spelt pasta

and we both had salads with roasted beet, onion, goat cheese and balsamic

salad

A perfect little meal 🙂

dinner

We chilled at the casa, I coerced the pilot to watch How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (best movie EVERRRR, even with his snide commentary haha) and we called it a night 🙂

The plan for today is:

-3 training appointments

-Weights (upper body)

-Post office

-Clean downstairs

-Make raw strawberry tart for Thurs night girl’s night

-Insanity

-Back to work

Before I go…

here’s that giveaway I’ve been hinting at 😉

Remember my Christmas gift from the pilot??

That would be a Flip cam.. and I’m in love with it 🙂

  7. Kindra C. on June 1, 2010 at 5:15 pm

    If my TV could do anything, it would allow me to…hit a button and it would print recipes from cooking shows and file them in an imaginary TV recipe box! Ohhh…and when I want to cook something, I just pull it out of the recipe box and it will have the recipe on the screen for me while I’m cooking. Hmm. I think I’m onto something here.



  8. Jessica on June 1, 2010 at 5:16 pm

  16. Dee on June 1, 2010 at 5:42 pm

    I want my TV to behave more like facebook plus a video editor, so that with my tv remote, if I like a scene in a show that amazed me or a funny commerical, I could record just that clip, then post it to my facebook profile, email it to a friend in the fb inbox, or send it by regular email.



  17. Kelsey on June 1, 2010 at 5:42 pm

  37. Madison Reese on June 1, 2010 at 6:10 pm

    I would have the television tailored to my specific taste…commercials included…so it only played the shows I liked to watch…sort of an apple genius for my television!



  38. katelyn on June 1, 2010 at 6:11 pm

    If my TV could do anything, it would let you smell all of the wonder things cooking on the food network… with a button to turn on the “smell”.

  42. Stephanie on June 1, 2010 at 6:20 pm

    If my TV could do anything, it would have smell-o-vision! I love watching Food Network, and it would be even better if I could smell (and taste!) everything. 🙂

  46. shelly on June 1, 2010 at 6:24 pm

    If my TV could do anything, it would allow me to join the cast of Big Brother whenever I wish. I would partake in the challenges and other fun events and then go home to sleep in my own bed and take a break from the drama. 🙂



  47. Tammy on June 1, 2010 at 6:25 pm

    I’d love to put on Back to the Future…transport myself next to Marty in the Delorian and when he goes into the future, I would grab the Grey’s Sports Almanac out of the trash after Doc Brown throws it away, BUT before Biff can snatch it! Then I would take the Delorian, go back in time, and give the Almanac to myself..therefore, stealing Marty’s idea and making myself “hella” rich!



  48. Randi on June 1, 2010 at 6:31 pm

    If my TV could do anything it would have a digital library full of all the old the shows now canceled that I could watch on demand any time I liked. Especially old school Nickelodeon shows like Doug, The Adventures of Pete and Pete, and David the Gnome.



  49. Ashley on June 1, 2010 at 6:34 pm

  50. Brittney on June 1, 2010 at 6:38 pm

    If my TV could do anything for me it would block all the baseball channels my boyfriend watches all the time. This may actually be a reality for me because I am guessing even the TV is getting sick of the amount of baseball being watched at our house lately.
