Carrot Cake

May 1st, 2008

Honestly, I like all of these ….and more….so they might call me Ummmm, crazy!  Today, right now…I’m in the mood for carrot cake. How about you?  Mitzi

If all of the eight desserts listed below were sitting in front of you, which would you choose (sorry, you can only pick one)! Trust me…this is very accurate. Pick your dessert, and then look to see what psychiatrists think about you.

REMEMBER - No Cheating. Make your choice before you check the meaning. After taking this dessert personality test, send this e-mail on to others, but when you do, be sure to put your choice of dessert in the subject box above.

ALSO, SEND IT TO THE PERSON WHO SENT IT TO YOU. DON’T FORGET TO CHANGE YOUR DESSERT CHOICE IN THE SUBJECT BOX  BEFORE YOU FORWARD IT.

Here are your choices:
1. Angel Food Cake
2. Brownies
3. Lemon Meringue Pie
4. Vanilla Cake With Chocolate Icing
5. Strawberry Short Cake
6. Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Icing
7. Ice Cream
8. Carrot Cake

No, you can’t change your mind once you scroll down, so think carefully
about what your choice will be.

OK - Now that you’ve made your choice, this is what the researchers say
about you… SCROLL DOWN—No Cheating

1. ANGEL FOOD CAKE — Sweet, loving, cuddly. You love all warm and fuzzy
items. A little nutty at times. Sometimes you need an ice cream cone at the
end of the day. Others perceive you as being childlike and immature at times.

2. BROWNIES — You are adventurous, love new ideas, and are a champion of
underdogs and a slayer of dragons. When tempers flare up you whip out your
saber. You are always the oddball with a unique sense of humor and
direction. You tend to be very loyal.

3. LEMON MERINGUE — Smooth, sexy, & articulate with your hands, you are an
excellent care giver and a good teacher.   But don’t try to walk and chew
gum at the same time. A bit of a diva at times, you set your own style
because you do your own thing. You shine when it comes to helping others and
have many friends.

4. VANILLA CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE ICING — Following, sassy, humorous, not very
grounded in life; very indecisive and lacking motivation. Everyone enjoys
being around you, but you are a practical joker. Others should be cautious
in making you mad.  However, you are a friend for life.

5. STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE — Romantic, warm, loving. You care about other
people, can be counted on in a pinch and expect the same in ret urn.
Intuitively keen. You can be very emotional at times but a true person in
every way.  You like to do things for yourself and help others learn about
themselves.

6. CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE ICING — Sexy; always ready to give and
receive. Very creative, adventurous, ambitious, and passionate. You can
appear to have a cold exterior but are warm on the inside. Not afraid to
take chances. Will not settle for anything average in life. Love to laugh.

7. ICE CREAM — You like sports, whether it be baseball, football,
basketball, or soccer. If you could, you would like to participate, but you
enjoy watching sports. You don’t like t o give up the remote control. You
tend to be  self-centered and high maintenance.

8. CARROT CAKE — You are a very fun loving person, who likes to laugh. You
are fun to be with. People like to hang out with you. You are a very warm
hearted person and a little quirky at times. You have many loyal friends ..
You were meant to lead and teach others. A wonderful role model.

Helpful tips!

April 28th, 2008

I don’t know if this is all true or not but it seems like it would be worth a try, especially the bees part!   Thanks to my friend Rhonda for passing this along.  If you try any of them let me know!  Mitzi

Bounce This Along  

My mail carrier told me that the US Postal service sent out a message to

all letter carriers to put a sheet of Bounce in their uniform pockets to

keep yellow-jackets away.

Use them all the time when playing baseball and soccer. I use it when I am

working outside. It really works. The yellow jackets just veer around you.

1. All this time you’ve just been putting Bounce in the dryer!  It will

chase ants away when you lay a sheet near them. It also repels mice.

2. Spread sheets around foundation areas, or in trailers, or cars that are

sitting and it keeps mice from entering your vehicle.

3. It takes the odor out of books and photo albums that don’t get opened

too often.

4. It repels mosquitoes. Tie a sheet of Bounce through a belt loop when

outdoors during mosquito season.

5. Eliminate static electricity from your television (or computer) Screen.

6. Since Bounce is designed to help eliminate static cling, wipe your

television screen with a used sheet of Bounce to keep dust from resettling.

7. Dissolve soap scum from shower doors. Clean with a sheet of Bounce.

8. To freshen the air in your home - Place an individual sheet of Bounce in

a drawer or hang in the closet.

9. Put Bounce sheet in vacuum cleaner.

10. Prevent thread from tangling. Run a threaded needle through a Sheet of

Bounce before beginning to sew.

11. Prevent musty suitcases. Place an individual sheet of Bounce inside

empty luggage before storing.

12. To freshen the air in your car - Place a sheet of Bounce under the

front seat.

13. Clean baked-on foods from a cooking pan. Put a sheet in a pan, fill

with water, let sit overnight, and sponge clean. The anti-static agent

apparently weakens the bond between the food and the pan.

14. Eliminate odors in wastebaskets. Place a sheet of Bounce at the bottom

of the wastebasket.

15. Collect cat hair. Rubbing the area with a sheet of Bounce will

magnetically attract all the loose hairs.

16. Eliminate static electricity from Venetian blinds. Wipe the blinds with

a sheet of Bounce to prevent dust from resettling.

17. Wipe up sawdust from drilling or sand papering. A used sheet of Bounce

will collect sawdust like a tack cloth.

18. Eliminate odors in dirty laundry. Place an individual sheet of Bounce

at the bottom of a laundry bag or hamper.

19. Deodorize shoes or sneakers. Place a sheet of Bounce in your shoes or

sneakers overnight.

20. Golfers put a Bounce sheet in their back pocket to keep the bees away.

21. Put a Bounce sheet in your sleeping bag and tent before folding and

storing them. It will keep them smelling fresh.

22. Quick, bounce this on within the next 5 minutes! Nothing will happen if

you don’t, but your friends will be glad to hear these Hints.

Question!

April 25th, 2008

There is a very, very tall coconut tree and there are 4 animals, a Lion,
a Chimpanzee, a Giraffe, and a Squirrel, who pass by.  They decide to
compete to see who is the fastest to get a banana off the tree.
 
Who do you guess will win?
 
Your answer will reflect your personality.
 
So think carefully . . . Try and answer within 30 seconds
 
Got your answer?
 
Now scroll down to see the analysis.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
If your answer is:
 
 
Lion = you’re dull.
 
 
Chimpanzee = you’re a moron.
 
 
Giraffe = you’re a complete idiot.
 
 
Squirrel = you’re just hopelessly insane.
 
 
 
A COCONUT TREE DOESN’T HAVE BANANAS!
 
Obviously you’re stressed and overworked.
You should take some time off and relax!
Try again next year.

 


I am insane!  I hope that you did better!  Mitzi

Teacher’s Pet

April 1st, 2008

This is from my friend Pam, who has the BEST sense of humor!  Thanks Pam!  You seem to find a way to make me smile everyday!  Mitzi

Teacher’s Pet

On the last day of kindergarten, all the children brought presents for their teacher.

The florist’s son handed the teacher a gift. She shook it, held it up and said, “I bet it’s some flowers!”

“That’s right!” shouted the little boy.

Then the candy store owner’s daughter handed the teacher a gift. She held it up, shook it and said, “I bet I know what it is! It’s a box of candy!”

“That’s right!” shouted the little girl.

The next gift was from the liquor store owner’s son. The teacher held it up and saw that it was leaking. She touched a drop with her finger and tasted it.

“Is it wine?” she asked.

“No,” the boy answered. The teacher touched another drop to her tongue.

“Is it champagne?” she asked.

“No,” the boy answered.

“What is it?” she said.

“A puppy!”

What if your friend was having an affair?

March 19th, 2008

It’s all over the news, locally and nationally.  On TV there is a new show called Lipstick Jungle.  It’s about 3 good friends(women) who are all professional, and …want it all,  a good marriage or relationship, kids and fullfillment though their work.  In the show one of the women had an affair.  When her friends find out they are appaled and it puts a huge strain on their long friendship.  I think that’s a pretty honest response to finding out that your good friend is having an affair.  What would you do? 

Would it end your friendship? 

Do men and women have the same response to this question? 

What did you make that was good?

February 25th, 2008

 Last week I went out  to dinner with some friends to a wonderful Italian restaturant.  I had a bowl of minestrone soup.  It was so good but I couldn’t believe it was $5.99!  The next day I stopped at the grocery store and stocked up on vegetables!  I made my own minestrone soup…I added tons of veggys and then I added hot sausage to it.  Presto dinner!  Good for you,  and ready  in a hurry!  What have you made or altered lately that would be really good to make ?  Help we all need new suggestions!  Thanks, Mitzi

Fill ‘em up, with love!

January 25th, 2008

I was reading some on line parenting advice and I especially like this one. My daughter turned 11 last week and I’ll admit that sometimes I wonder if I’m doing the right thing.   

 Don’t rush to punish. Every child has a cup that needs to be filled — and refilled — with love, attention, affection, and respect. A rough day, a big frustration, or a harsh word empties the cup. If your child is acting up, give him a hug, listen to him, and spend time together. He’ll be more cooperative, and you’ll both feel closer.

 I hope that you have a great weekend with your kids!  Mitzi

Quick enery tip…does it work for you?

January 10th, 2008

I just read about this.  Try it yourself it only takes a minute, and tell me does it work for you? 

 Touch your ring and middle fingers to your thumb and press them firmly together for a minute to  unblock energy.  I’m game, but I’m keeping my coffee nearby anyway!  Mitzi
