Disposable Diaper + Washer = No Bueno

    AntiMom’s Tip#1 – Never Wash Disposable Diapers. EVER! If you end up in the same situation I was in the other night, where you are exhausted from going to the beach and spending the entire weekend in the hot sun and ready to collapse after you do just 1 load of laundry but then you realize as you empty the clothes from the washer to the dryer, that you have washed one of your child’s disposable diapers in with all the clothes. You want to cry, scream, punch a wall and/or slowly walk away and shut the door…

Nutella Makes Everything Betta

Posted by in May, Recipes

  Love me some Nutella! After this great Memorial Day weekend, my husband and I had our own little BBQ, just the 3 of us. While he was napping on the couch (lucky bastard), I thought I’d make a special dessert because after stuffing my face with yummy BBQ foods, I need something sweet! I had just bought Nutella and always have at least 1 box of Pillsbury pie dough in the fridge. So I got a brilliant idea to make little Nutella & Banana Pie Pouches. How bad could those turn out right?! They are extremely easy to make…

Tuesday is the New Monday.

Posted by in May

  Last night my husband asked me what the worst day of the week is for me. Seeing as all days pretty much run into each other since I have stopped working, I just said Monday because, well, Monday’s have always sucked! Especially after a great weekend like we had, so of course Monday is going to fail in comparison! When I reciprocated the question, he said Tuesdays. I of course laughed at him like I always do, and questioned his answer. He then proceeded with the rebuttal as to why he hates Tuesdays, and it actually made a shit…

Fried Brown Rice

Here is the most absolutely delicious, better than your local Chinese takeout place fried rice recipe, as promised from yesterday. I stumbled upon this recipe on this site called Pinterest. I don’t know if any of you have ever heard of it…or if I ever mentioned it before….(subtle sarcasm much?) I’ve attempted fried rice numerous times, and it always came out greasy or just tasting way too much like soy sauce. I had brown rice in the house and made about 3 cups worth. Ate one cup that night with my husband, and save the last 2 cups for this…

Better-Than-Takeout Baked Sweet Chinese Chicken

Posted by in May, Recipes

Who doesn’t love a good Chinese food take-out night? I have always loved attempting to make my own Chinese, Thai, and Oriental foods. I’ve attempted – as you can see attempted is the operative word – fried wontons, pad thai, lo mein, sesame chicken and lettuce wraps.  I succeeded maybe 2 out of 5 times. So last week as part of my daily routine, I was scouring Pinterest for new recipes and came across one for Sweet & Sour baked Chicken. I was intrigued. I have been craving it for some time and figured to test it out for dinner….

Makeup 101 with MAC

Posted by in May

Lets face it, you are never too old for a makeup 101 session. As a pre-teen, I never knew how to apply make-up. I would steal my moms, watch her and try to copy. I looked like a hot mess! Random colors blended together, poking myself in the eye with the damn mascara wand and don’t even get me started on blush. Talk about clown face. I guess it was pretty evident had no coordination in the beauty department, so before I went into High School, as a Christmas gift,  my cousins gave me a gift certificate to MAC to…

The 3 Things I Learned In Vegas.

0
Posted by in May

  I just recently returned from a weekend away in Vegas. Mainly the reason why I have been so MIA on here all week. For some reason I can’t seem to get back into the groove of things. Could it have been all the alcohol consumption? Possibly. Could it have been all the exerted energy playing slots and blackjack? Maybe. Could it have been the hot, Nevada sun? Sure, why not. I’ll never tell though, after all, what happens in Vegas stays there. But I will tell you this, while there I learned a few things that just have never…

Meatless Friday – Roasted Veggie Pasta

Posted by in May, Recipes

Normally I am strictly a pasta and marinara sauce kind of girl but decided to step out of my comfort zone and test out a new kind of pasta dish. I knew it would either be a hit or complete fail and was prepared for the latter. We have been on an “lets eat healthy” kick for our upcoming trip to Vegas (whooohooo!). Clearly we are trying some Jedi mind trick to make us feel better and justify the fact that we will be drinking heavily and eating like crap for 4 days. Whatever works, right? So I made a…

iProblems

I’ve got bad iPhone Problems. I was trying to be a good wife and serve my husband dinner. Anyone who knows me, knows that my arms are extremely long and lanky and tend to flail from my body like a wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man. As I dished out his dinner, one of my extremities knocked over my giant glass of water. My poor, helpless iPhone laid there, in the stream of gushing water, enjoying a nice cold bath. At that moment, I would normally shift my gears to cleaning the water off my high-maintenance kitchen table. But…
