My friends and I went to "The Melting Pot" last. It's a high-end fondue restaurant. Now, I'm not a drinker....period. However, everyone was trying different martini's and they talked me into choosing one. (Ya don't like it....I'll drink it!). So I opted for a Pomegranate Cosmo.....citrus vodka, pomegranate liqueur, pomegranate juice and cranberry juice. OMG! It was delicious. I usually take a few sips of whatever drink and pass it on.....I drank it all except the last 1/2 inch at the bottom! Woke up with the mother of all headaches *ouch*. Of course, I tasted everyone elses drinks as well...these included the "love" martini (yuck-strawberry), carmel apple martini (okay), yin yang (they make a ying yang on top with chocolate, was pretty good!), the chocolatini (so so), and the french hawaiian (yuck!). 90 bucks worth of drinks later......(only 4 of us ?!?!?!?!). Food...yes...we had food...appetizers were breads, veggies and fruit to dip into spinach artichoke fondue and cheese fondue. Dinner was platters of lobster tail, shrimp, bbq pork, filet mignon, chicken, and more veggies. Dessert...now...that was a treat (not that ALL this food wasn't yummy!). We had one pot of chocolate peanut butter fondue and one pot of Smores (chocolate, marshmallow creme sprinkled with graham cracker crumbs). For dessert dipping there was pound cake, fruit, cheesecake, rice krispie treats, brownies. I'm a thinking I gained AT LEAST 10 pounds last night!

Here is another of my scrapping pages....the flower was from Carena's "Alex" kit, found on ScrapbookMAX, the word art from http://elegantwordart2.blogspot.com/ and the paper is from DigiKeepsakes by Monica Evans (grunge paper). I love the simplicity. Hope you do too!

TTFN

Well, I've really been getting into the digital scrapbook thing now. I've been learning up a storm and trying new things. This is one of my favorites....it's my cousin's daughter, Samantha. She wore my shoes because she wouldn't walk through the tall, dry grass in her sandals during the Easter egg hunt. I extracted the photo and then had some fun. Fairies are from freetubes.com, the rest is from Joann Cinnamon's Fairy Dreams - My Digital Addiction. Enjoy! (By the way, extractions look difficult but are quite easy once you catch on!!!).

Oh...and my vacation is in one week!! Yay!! I'm counting down. Not going anywhere, but gonna have fun anyway....

Blue Cross and Wellness Pharmacy

Well, here I am having issues with Blue Cross and Wellness Pharmacy. First, Blue Cross forces users of what they deem "specialty" drugs to use their own Wellness Pharmacy (first red flag!). They sent me a letter a year ago saying I was not part of this because I have a PPO. Well, at the beginning of this year...all of a sudden, my Enbrel is delayed because I have to go through this specialty pharmacy!!! 12 weeks late!!!!! I won't tell you the "discomfort" (very mild word) this put me through. My doctor switched me to Humira...and here we go again. I called in the prescription a week and a half ago...PLENTY of time to get their tushies in gear and get the meds ordered and to me. They promised them to me today, Tuesday....well, guess what!?! No meds!!! Oh...so sorry they say, Blue Cross hasn't approved it..HUH???? What a bunch of bull---o---nee.....Ummmm...can someone tell me this? They told me they would call me if they hit a glitch...well, I call that a glitch!!! Anyhow, I'm told I'll get it Thursday...but I'm a wreck now....falling apart because I'm so afraid of the breakout if it happens. Well....I'll keep you posted. My stomach is in knots!!!

New Pawprints Frame

Well, I finally "created" something in Adobe Photoshop. It's a cute Pawprint Frame! Remember, it's my first so it may not be perfect. I am truly learning here. Grab the frame here.
