Wordless Wednesday: Minus One Tree
We cut one of the trees down in the front a couple of weeks ago. You couldn’t see our house, it was overgrown, and nothing was growing in the front because nothing could get light. Here is the before:
Here is the after:

Mrs. Printable’s Tour
As a blogger, I sometimes get invited to really cool events. I recently attended a tour of Mrs. Prindables. I’ve got one word for the place: YUM!
Ok, seriously. They’ve never done a tour before, and I have to admit that it was one of the coolest tours I’ve been on. It’s really cool to see all of the hard work and time that gets put into these apples. An apple isn’t just an apple here. One of the first things that I learned was Mrs. Prindables has their own line of apples (and no there was never a Mrs. Prindable). They also are the ones that do Affy Tapple apples. Now, Affy Tapple apples are big here in Chicago. I’m not sure if they go outside the immediate area here or not. We actually did some fundraising for Madison’s school with Affy Tapple this year. We got to watch them make both. The main difference between the two is that Mrs. Prindables is hand made. Yes, hand made which is why they cost more. Affy Tapple apples are automatically made. (See story below). They also use a lot larger apples for the Mrs. Prindables apples.
It was truly an eye opening experience:
We were sent home with some caramel and a triple dipped chocolate apple to try. To die for. Seriously. You wouldn’t believe how rich it was. And how yummy. I can say that this is a great unique gift to send a loved one or even buy for yourself!
Go check out Mrs. Prindable’s. You won’t be disappointed!

DWTS: Kate Gosselin
I know people hate Kate Gosselin. I get that (kinda). That being said — you have to give her credit. I watch all the haters on Twitter and I’ve actually responded that I’d like to see any of us get on that show. I can tell you — I’d suck. I know I’d suck. Most of us would suck. Kate is not an actress, she’s not an athlete, she’s a mom. Think how nerve wracking that show has to be. The haters who are all about “she needs to stay home with her kids”. Well, people, do your research. They practice at her house! Instead of tearing her down, us moms should be bringing her up. We should be voting for her because she’s one of us. Plus, it isn’t like Jon is paying child support for all those kids, so let the woman make a paycheck where she can! I also hate that last week they made all the women look whiny with their little stories.
I have to say that Pam Anderson annoys me on the show. It’s how much she can flaunt what she’s got. I’m not impressed by that. However, since she’s hot, the audience will keep voting for her.
Who do you like on Dancing With the Stars? Anybody you hate?
