Virtual Shopping!

Virtual Shopping!

Well the interesting thing about being 9 months pregnant is that you can’t really shop for much! You don’t want to buy more maternity clothes, but clearly you don’t fit into your old size, and have no idea when, if ever, you will again. And shoes don’t fit either because your feet are either swollen or have gotten bigger, or both! So you can’t even shoe shop really! So today as I was bored sitting around waiting on baby girl to start the process of showing up, I remembered how I had seen this website where you basically make an outfit board. (Like the mood boards for rooms on the Young House Love blog, for any of you who read that) The site is called Polyvore and you kinda shop and group items together. Here is my first one, and I think it is all super cute! I am really glad ruffles are so in fashion right now, I am a big fan! So go make yourself an outfit and post it and leave me a comment. I want to see what you pick out! (You can sort by price too, so this stuff all ended up being within a reasonable price.) You can click the picture to go to the site and see what items I put in and how much they cost. And then you can make your own!

Excellent Deal on a Photo Book

Excellent Deal on a Photo Book

What have I been working on the past 24 hours….a photo book! (I stayed up until 2 am doing this! And since I woke up at 10 I have been working on it some more! It is super fun!)

photo book

I don’t know about you but I don’t print many pictures since they are digital. I found this blog called Moms By Heart and she blogged about a deal where you get a free photo book from Picaboo. It is an 8 1/2 x 11 sized book with 20 pages free, which normally costs $39.99.  So I am in the process of making one, instead of printing off pictures and putting them in a photo album. It comes out looking kinda like digital scrapbooking but I don’t know how to do that.Go make one, or two!

Here is her post telling about it

Freebies!

Freebies!

You know I like me some free stuff. (See previous Chick fil A post) so here are some opportunities to snag some free muchies over the next few days! Act quickly!!!

Tomorrow (Thursday, July 29th)  is Free Tea Day at McAlister’s Deli. Click here for info.

Tomorrow (Thursday, July 29th) is also National Lasagne Day at Spaghetti Warehouse, but you have to sign up to get their emails here. Then you get their lasagna for $4.99. It is also National Lasagne Day at Buca di Beppo (there is one in the Woodlands and also some in Dallas and Austin) (so that makes me think the two companies are related) and you get a free lasagna there when you order another entree. Click here for info. (Thanks hubby for that tip!)

Friday July 30th is National Cheesecake Day at The Cheesecake Factory and you get any slice for half price. (There is some thing about $1.50 slices tomorrow on Thursday July 29th if you are a facebook fan or something, I don’t really know…) Click here for info. (Thanks Leanna for the tip!)

Tuesday August 3rd from 5-8 pm Whataburger is giving a free whataburger to anyone wearing orange, dine in only. Click here for info.

So go get yourself some free food and stay out of the hot kitchen!
