Sleepy cuddles














Well. It’s time. Katie has ignored all requests to clean up her room so it’s being emptied. I even gave her two extras afternoons and she didn’t do a single thing.
I literally scooped piles of shit from her closet, using my feet as rakes because it was legit a foot deep. Including dishes, MY SHOES, actual garbage, and lots of stuff she’s gonna miss.

I’m making her sort it now so she can see everything she’s losing.

She pretty much admitted she thought I was going to pull stuff out and she’d get to pick what she wanted to keep. Hahahahahahahaha I told her she lost that option a long time ago. She’s losing A LOT OF STUFF.
I looooove chips. So I might have gone a little crazy at the local exotic snack store!
The last time I did something like this was probably over a year ago when Tom and I wandered into a Japanese grocery store and we bought a bunch of chips (and I think we only have one bag left—we just open a bag every now and again and do a taste test with Anna and David). So I dragged her along with me…
I know the flavors are probably hard to read, so I’ll share a few:





Every time I wear this shirt I first think of my BFF Anna who found it for me…and second I think how perfect it is! (ICYMI, my business name comes from my sarcasm.) #lippylife #livinglippy

Both fence doors are very much worse for the wear so when we saw a great deal on the metal frame, we picked up two. Tom ended up having to replace all the wood, but now it swings open soooo nicely! One down, one to go!





I recently saved this recipe so decided it was happening today since the smoker is already on for brisket!


And it was delicious! This is the recipe that gave me the idea but I didn’t follow it much. I used 2 sticks butter, Worcestershire, onion powder, minced garlic, and some random spices Tom uses when grilling or smoking!





Decided to stay and relax…


I keep trying to get a picture of her insanely long tongue but my timing is always off or the angle is wrong.

I had set a goal of 200 items for the March Mania competition — last year I think I did just over that but this year has been slower so I thought 200 was good. And I managed to pull it out in the final hours of the last day!

I also made the Top 25 in Sales & Total number of products sold each week! This was a huge accomplishment since I only actually won one of my four weeks!
