I survived my stay in the Haunted Mansion

....and with six kiddos! Nothing really, piece of cake ;) I saw my very first real and alive scorpion. That was kind of fun and scary at the same time. Jane has great kids and we had a lot of fun. It was nice to go back to single Lizzie with no kids yesterday. I kinda had no idea what to do though. So, I went grocery shopping, the bath & body and then did homework, laundry, picked up my room, made soup, and watched a movie. It was so weird not to have any plans, and it was nice! I am so used to being busy that it was a needed break!

Bath and body sent out an e-mail saying that their shimmer lotions were 75% off, making them $2.62. I went to the store and the workers had not heard of that, so I had them scan one and yup, they were. They only had 3 kinds, so I bought 5 of them, enough to get my free body spray with a coupon. I was getting on here to post about it to let everyone know to go there tomorrow and get some and I went to get a pic off of their website, and they are only 50% off now. So around $5, still cheap and a good gift idea... (it is the older packaging of the shimmer lotion, not the new ones in Christmas bottles)

I finished my final project for the teacher who didn't take my midterm, and I finished it 4 weeks early. TAKE THAT!!!! UHHHHH I better get full credit, and no lectures about waiting til the last minute

I made broccoli soup from scratch, but here is what happened. I hate onions, so when it said it only wanted half and onion, I though, what the heck am I going to do with the rest of this, so I put the whole thing in. To balance it all out, I had to put in more celery and carrots. So by the time I put the broccoli in it was really chunky. I was having a hard time with that, so I decided to blend it to make it smoother. The texture is gross. I don't really mind textures of food, but the texture of the soup felt like it had already been chewed. I put lots of crackers in it and then it wasn't so bad. It tasted really good though. My roommate liked it, before I blended it. So next time, I will just have to cut it up in smaller pieces.

Have a great Sunday. I am going early to go to choir then I have to make dessert for our dinner groups tonight. The guy that is hosting ours is making PF Chang's version of Honey Seared Chicken, my fav! Have a good day :)
