How I got the Cricut on the plane

There was no other way, kind of embarrassing. But it worked and I got it safely to Utah. So I got it on Saturday for the deal I previously mentioned and I went back on Monday and Tuesday to a few locations and the deal was no longer going and everything was full price.

Another funny story, so I put the cartridges in my purse and my sisters and I went to the mall to shop. I walked in the first store as people were coming out and the security in the store went off. I kept walking and the people opened their bags. Same thing happened as I walked in and the people with their bags started going through it. When it happened in the second store I realized it was me and it was so embarrassing because I beeped off the security in every store and the car was so far away. Oh boy.

Crazy Encounters at the Airport

I totally people watch at the airport. It is so interesting to me, on my way to and from Michigan I took notes of interesting things I saw in the airport and on the plane... ENJOY

• A man standing up and putting deodorant on
• We hadn't boarded for moe than two minutes and the woman in front of me changed her babies diaper
• Waiting at the gate and a woman doing the splits on the ground and staying like that as she read a book
• A lady was checking in her and her dog and she asked if the dog could get sky miles (maybe they can but it sounds so dumb).
• Too many pillow pets and one shaped like a pokemon.
• At the gate, a guy sitting three seats away from me asking me to save his spot. I felt so bad bc I wasn't paying attention and a businessman on his phone say there. Oops
• Two girls carrying fake bats ... Yes like the animal.. Onto the plane. I have no idea why, they were over a foot long
• A really presumptuous lady w a huge hat. She would have fit perfectly I the royal wedding
• A girl with panda ear headphones
• People bringing a longboard and rollerblades on the plane
• I swear I saw an Amish person on a cell phone.
• A man was flossing his teeth at the gate.
• One flight attendent started singing the Tigger song... "the most wonderful about thing about Tiggers, are Tiggers are wonderful things..."
• Oh, and a girl wheeling a Cake Cricut on the plane (ME LOL)

The Zelmgid, finding the good in others

My parents would always read this story to us before the school year. We had some kids over for Family Home Evening so we shared this story. The pieces are separate and we would put them on the board one at a time when they were read.



THE NEW ANIMAL

A new animal was coming to live in the zoo, and the other animals were excited. One morning a big truck backed up to an empty cage, and out stepped the new animal. The zookeeper going a sign outside the cage that said "ZELMGID."

The other animals stared in amazement. The zelmgid did not look like any animal that they had ever seen. He had a long neck and a long tail, and when he opened his mouth, he barked. One by one the other animals turned away from the cage. Because the zelmgid was so different, they were not sure how to treat him.

The zelmgid was very lonely. The animals ignored him, so he had no one to talk to. He was so sad that he didn't eat. The zookeepers began to worry. People stopped visiting the zoo because the new animal was sad and the other animals his in the backs of their cages.

One day the elephant heard the zelmgid barking to himself. "The zelmgid does have a good truck," he told the giraffe. "It's not as long mine, but it's really quite nice."

The giraffe stretched her neck to take a closer look. "Look at his strong neck. He can reach as high as I can."

The lion was looking quietly at the new animal's mane. "My goodness! He has an excellent mane--- almost as thick as mine."

Just then the zebra trotted by the cage. "His coat has a very nice pattern," she said.

"And his horns are curved just right," the ibex said, "just like mine."

When the monkey came swinging from the trees, he said, "Look at that handsome tail. I wonder if the zelmgid would like to play tag?"

Finally the duck waddled by the cage. "What fine feet you have. You probably can swim faster than I can," she said to him.

The zelmgid stopped crying and thanked the duck for the compliment. Soon all the animals were talking together. They felt much happier. Even though the zelmgid looked different, the other animals had all found something about the new animal that they liked.

Cake Cricut Inspiration

I've been looking through to see the amazing cakes that have been made with the Cake Cricut and can't wait to try it out. Here are some ideas that inspired me. I hope all are made from the Cricut, when I typed it in the search engine for Cake Cricut Cakes these are some of many that came up so I hope they all are from the Cricut.

A Cake Cricut!A Cake Cricut!

I have wanted to get a Cake Cricut for a while but in Utah I have not found them on sale. However, they certainly were in Michigan! These run up to $400 but since they are not as well known or popular they were $124 for a large one and $99 for the small. I cannot wait!

Here are cartridges on clearance as well. I have a cute holiday and bday one. If anyone needs to use it let me know!

Things that help make our kitchen run

This is a plastic bag holder we got at Bed Bath & Beyond. We used to throw our plastic grocery bags under the sink but this helps keep everything in order and clean.

This is the dry erase board I blogged about awhile ago. I'll write down a grocery list or write down or meal plan.

Our smelly candle. We plug it in and our apartment smells so good.

This is a spice rack we got from our wedding from BBB. I would not regularly use spices unless they were right there. This rack is so handy.

The timer is on our fridge and helps me so much bc I don't like using a timer on the oven or microwave. This one was from Walmart and is magnetic.

Here are our Emma dishes which I love. We got them from our wedding at PB and they help us get through our day.

We have a ton of cool cooking gadgets but I use these things every day!!!
