gang! It is beginning to be that time of year were I spend most of my time in the kitchen...I do that pretty much year around but I baked my balls off yesterday and did about 60 cupcakes. I was so done after the last one that I do not want to see cupcake batter for the next few months. After I decided to alter the cupcake a little and add less fudge frosting. I also could not find any damn white cotton candy for smoke so decided to add a little pretzel stick for the witches cauldron. They turned out pretty great my husband polished out about 3 of them and was ready for more. You see I do not taste my own baked goods. With the amount of baking and cooking that I do I need to make sure that I have someone who is always willing to take one for the team and be my taste tester. I do not wan the extra calories so I have him do the hard job of testing all my goods. I know how long I need to sweat on the damn elliptical for just one bite of cupcake...Augh
I also put together about 24 of these little trick bags for my GG's class.... I am so glad that at least we can bring treats to her friends at school they will just go home with the little ones so the parents can decide to give it to them or not. I would hope that even the sugar nazis that live in my area would bend the rule for one night and have them enjoy this over the top sugary holiday. I am also super excited because in 22 days my awesome MIL is coming for a visit and is going to be here for the gobble gobble holiday. A first and we are super over the top happy she is coming.
Today is going to be a busy day....GG dress up day at school, parade, lunch then hopefully home for a nap and then off to a fire fighter BBQ and trick or treating with the little one......God I love this frigging day......
Everyone be safe and have a great day!

Oh YEah......
OK...OK...I have never been a huge sports fan...Mmmmm let me see I actually suck at watching and participating in sports activities believe you me I have tried{husband is a sports fanatic} but no offense to the sports loving peeps out there but it some of this shit bores the hell out of me. Now if shopping was a sports events I would be a champ but until Saks decides to sponsor a handbag shopping team I am SOL. Even with my lack of sports knowledge and passion I can still be damn proud when my home town baseball team the San Francisco Giants won their second series in 3 years. Woot...Woot...to the boys............
PS....I am also going to be cleaning a little house with my bloggy list...I feel that when we all take the time to visit other blogs, read and comment we should receive the same bloggy love back. In the last couple of months I noticed that some blogs don't even try anymore. So it is time for a little fall cleaning.

Do we ever know.......
who we decide to leave our kids with? I state this this morning because while I was getting up this am I got a brief shot of a horrific news story out of NYC were a nanny "allegedly" stabbed to death a 2 and 6 year old that were left in her care and then tried to commit suicide. I cannot tell you how bad I feel this morning. First their was painful sadness for this mother and the family....... next anger. I can tell you this if something like ever happened to me I would have nothing to lose and let's leave it at that. What makes a human and what goes through someone minds do something like this? Not only did you gruesomely take the lives of two innocent angels but you have scarred that family forever. People like this should be punished by the full extent of the law, people like this should have no room on our earth. Your were paying this person to look after your most precious gifts. I can tell you this someone like this has had emotional issues in the past they just took awhile to surface because no matter how normal you may seem to be on the outside if a person has emotional issues it could take years to surface. Do we ever truly know the people we allow in our lives? I am so numb this morning. After hearing this story I turned around and gave my husband a huge kiss and hug..... Because of how hard he works I am allowed to stay home with my child and take care of her myself. Before the bashing begins I KNOW that their are some families that do not have a choice but to have to go to work in order to support their families...I am just saying that I feel extremely lucky that at this point in our lives I can be the one raising my child and not some stranger. When your hiring nannies/babysitters and whomever is going to be around your children please be vigilant. I might be super ass to the 100 power paranoid but that is the way it is going to be with me period. We live in a world where you can no longer go by word of mouth when it comes to your kids. Not only should you run a background check you should run a psychological background checks. Hire a reputable agency that run major FBI checks you cannot play Russian roulette with your families lives. This is a horrible crime and I cannot even begin to get myself ready this morning because all I wanna do is stay here and hug on my child.
After this story and some of the other stories/issues that have been floating around lately I am highly considering shutting down my blog. I believe the less people know now a days the better.

Rewind......
You know when you have one those mornings when you get and wish that you can just press the rewind button to have the day start all over again. I need one of those MoFo's already this am. I pretty much got little sleep last night - we had a pretty huge rain storm and the wind was out of control which means my little one was woken up by it and in our room wondering what the hell was going on. The dogs were restless, I was restless and it does not help that I am PMSing my balls off so I am a anxiety wreck anyway. I slept soundly from maybe 3-5 and that is not going to cut it for me. I just don't function well on little sleep period.....The morning started great I mean GG got up and she is potty training like a champ so we were both really excited since this am she went in the toilet before she came downstairs for breakfast. Yep I was proud and because I see no wrong in bribing kids to do certain things I gave her her 2 quarters for her piggy bank like I promised her last night before she went to bed{this is only for her am pee}.....So I go downstairs to get her breakfast ready and start on my own - I am frying up my egg whites/spinach my usual. I go to grab the toaster which I keep on top of the fridge and the asshole falls right on top of the fire extinguisher we keep in the kitchen in turn busting the damn seal on the thing and poof here comes the white powder. Now I have only seen these lovelies break on TV but let me tell you just a slight hit and it looked like Al Pacino's Scarface movie set in my kitchen.
I almost cried as I tried to clean all the shit up from the floor, counter, stove every friggn corner of the kitchen Mind you I am trying to beat the clock in order to get me and GG out the door for school. I had to toss all the food I was making because of this white shit on it. Of course being totally paranoid I was scared that I would be growing an extra eye ball this morning as I drove my little one to school. What the hell is it Friday the 13th an no one told me about it.....How does shit like this happen to me on a daily basis? I need to take my hubmans advice and sloe the f*ck down once in awhile. Everything got better once I worked my ass off.
I am looking forward to tonight. I have some gals coming over for a girls night and a little bit of vino and food. Soooo looking forward to it. I need some chick time for sure......or I am going to be checking myself into the below.....

A little warning to future GG dates.......
Beware..........This awesome mini video was produced by one of my husband accounts. You see my husbands company produces cool fun shit that you can see in the dark with *think thermal and think being able to see something in pitch ass darkness* basically my husband is a defensive contractor and around some massive fire power at work. So in keeping with this whole end of the world zombie thing which is HUGE right now check out this friggin awesome clip.
Ohhhhh and be sure never to bring her home late because mama knows how to shoot to.
