Pageant Moms Are CRAZY!

So another day goes by! Today at my office we had a bake sale and we raised $525.00!! My coworkers can cook!!! Isn't that insane? Who would have thought that some brownies and cookies could make that kind of money? After work, I had a Junior League meeting and then came home to make dinner. Ever since we went to NYC last summer, I have wanted to copy a salad I had for lunch one day at an exquisite cafe. So, tonight we tried it. He grilled steak and we sliced it on a bed of spinach with tomato chunks and a Peppercorn & Parmesan dressing. It was sooooooo good! Even my husband ate it....with tomatoes!!!

Let me tell you about the song of the day for me. "This Woman's Work" by Maxwell. It was one of my favorite songs towards the end of my college career. (I say career because I changed my major so many times, that it almost became a profession!!) I have it on my I-pod, but listen to it rarely. Well, tonight watching So You Think You Can Dance, Tyce used it to choreograph the most beautiful contemporary piece focusing on a woman's struggle with breast cancer. If you missed it, You Tube it. It was ABSOLUTELY beautiful and I had tears streaming down my face. Unreal.

Today I am thankful for my huge spectrum of friends. Today, at the bake sale, as people around the agency came to buy stuff from our department, a coworker of mine said to me, "You have such an eclectic group of acquaintances." The more I thought about it, that describes my life! I have a very eclectic group of friends in general. I love that I have friends of all faiths, social statuses, races, political views,etc... and I embrace every minute of it. Besides, who wants to hang out with people that mirror themselves daily? How monotonous!

Time to go - the new season of Toddlers and Tiaras is on! You know that is my guilty pleasure! Pageant moms are crazy!!!
