We are having a bake/dessert auction at work to raise money for Cancer. I decided to make one of my insanely healthy cranberry pies. I’m tempted to put a picture of it in my photo gallery, but it looks really scary – not a photogenic pie! Anyway, it simply consists of cranberries and Splenda for the filling. I used a frozen pie shell, because I’m a big cheater. The topping is quick oats, Splenda brown sugar, cinnamon and butter. I call it “Lizzy McPie’s Cranberry Delight!” I thought I would personalize it a bit more and create the topping in the shape of an airplane. Ok, this is where the “I’m mildly disturbed” part comes in. First of all, who has heard of a cranberry pie? Second, I gave it a goofy name. Third, have you ever seen a pie with an airplane on top of it? Just when I thought I wasn’t taunted enough at work. Oh well – every office needs a little silliness.
I have to do a product promo, for no benefit of my own, but simply because you have to try it! I cannot stand feet. Yuckaroo! I have never had a pedicure and probably will never have one. I’ve never used one of those pumice stones because just the thought of it makes me want to hurl. Anyway, I recently won a quiz and draw at work, which awarded me a Ped Egg. What on Earth is that, you ask? Well, let me tell you. It is a gruesome and gory device that sloughs off the dry skin on your feet. It basically looks like a mini cheese grater. Once again, yuckaroo! I decided to give it a whirl and was astounded at the results. My feet now feel like a Sphynx’s bum! Yes, they’re that smooth! Here’s the link: http://www.pedegg.com/ I told both my mother and my friend about it, and they both picked one up at Winner’s for $2.00 less than at the As Seen on TV store (where they are $14.99).
Today’s symptoms: El Pooped! Holy cow! I think I’m still trying to recover from my Air Race weekend. I’ve had a bad headache for a couple weeks now. I should take a day of sick leave and just chill out, but I have an issue with hoarding my sick leave…and vacation time. It’s a really annoying habit!
