 Cover and simmer on low for 2 to 3 hour stir every once in awhile
if you notice it going dry add 1/2 cup more broth. The last half hour take off the cover and let it reduce.

Dear friend, Guess Who went SHOPPING!




Dear Friend,

        I feel like I haven't written in forever but it was only a week. Not a whole lot happened I did get to go SHOPPING!!!! I was kinda bummed they didn't have a lot of stuff I really wanted but I did get lots of nice cloths

 
but no dresses or skirts
everything I liked they didn't have my size I was so about to have a min tantrum in the middle of the store im mean how do u NOT  of a small but im not going to get mad again  O   O   O and I wanted to get fishing stuff I wanted wader and a vest they didn't have my size wow big surprise they had jrs but the were to small and the vest they had weren't the one's I wanted so carl said we will keep an eye out and I can get them for mothers day. Anyway on a happier note Carl Finally let me cut Anabella's hair. For some reason about 2 inches of here hair is just so thin and it keeps breaking
 
it was at the middle of her back so a lot came off but its not to short. Lily was not happy that she didn't get hers cut but hers is growing really good and dispite what carl thinks we cant have them always doing and getting everything the same they have to learn to be there own person. Im finally putting up a recipe tonight we are making homemade sloppy joe's and I tell u once you make this you will NEVER go back to can so be sure to look for that

sincerely
your 5yr old shopaholic Friend

EASTER 2014


This Easter was the best we've had yet! We woke up ate breakfast and the fun began. First we did an egg hunt which turned into a 20 min hunt and we didn't even find all the eggs on recount lily was missing 2 eggs we looked everywhere but nothing.  Then we were hanging up laundry outside and an egg fell out of the tree it was one of lily's missing eggs and it was all chewed up and the candy was gone we looked up and there was a squirrel looking down at us. Later we played games we did a race around the house then an egg race and last a egg toss with raw eggs. Lucky for us raw eggs are a lot tougher then we thought.  I am so tired this was a LONG day the girls have been past out since before 8pm. Tomorrow looks like another beautiful day I cant wait. I hope all of you had a great Easter.

Stretch it out (fitness)







Today I woke up feeling very stiff. As I got ready to do another day of XHIT workouts I thought there is no way I can do this. So I lissoned to my body and looked for a good stretching video and because XHIT is so good they had just what I needed Hot Yoga Workout I felt so good afterwards. Taking time to just stretch your body is really important I myself sometimes forget that. You have to lission to your body. When you do this exercise let me know how is worked for you. I could believe how even tho I was just stretching I still worked up a sweat.

Husband vs Wife in Fitness




I don't know how things are with you and your spouse but me and my husband are VERY COMPEDITIVE we seem to compete in everything we do and fitness is no different. I have been working out for awhile now but he just started and now he thinks he knows everything lol men.  He is doing workout by Mike Chang at Six Pack Abs



and Im doing XHITS
 
We have spent the last couple of day going back and forth about well they said to do this well mine said to do this. Who is Right?
 
 
BOTH see the thing is we are working on two different parts of our body he is working his upper half ( stomach chest arms ) and Im working my whole body also I am working to gain and keep weight on and he is working to take weight off. Long story short what works for one doesn't work for another. You have to do the research and look at different workouts and meal plans to see what is best for you. Even me I was doing bloglaties for a year but I wasn't seeing the results I really wanted but now that I changed over to XHIT I already see result after a week and a half Its just one of those trial and error things. While it is good to have someone to workout with  and to keep each other motivated but inless you are doing the same workout plans You have to let them do their thing and you do yours and just give each other lots of compliments.
