I started a new Nail Tech job in Lakewood, Colorado.  I work Tuesday thru Saturday from 10 am to 2 pm. the shop is called Tanglz and Co. My son is gone on vacation with his grandparents so I was able to get a summer job.  And I am 4 1/2 pregnant now we get to find out what it is next month..

April 22, 2009

Now that Peter is able to work full time, looks like we get to stay here in Idaho Springs.  I am still looking for work, but good things are happening here.  I am getting closer to find the shop I would like to work at.

Sorry I have not kept up on the blog very well. My liescene to work here in Colorado just came in this last week.  So now I can begin looking for work.  As soon as I get situated in a salon I will post all about it on the internet.

Hello everyone, I want to say thank you for making the nail business a wonderful place to work in California. I appreciate everyone of you and you will all be missed. I do hope you keep in touch and leave comments in my other blog link at the top of this page. Yes, I am moving to Colorado, my last day of work is February 13th at 1:00 pm. 

 

So far it looks like we will we wintering the cold weather in Idaho Springs Colorado, and then move to Golden Colorado by Summer.  We need to get our bearings and cheap RV rent until I can get to where we want to go to in Golden.  It will be near a couple of nice malls and Pete's Coffee.  The school's there I hope are promising for Nic and so far we will both be attending 8th grade until I feel it's a safe place. The poor teacher's there have their work cut out for them.

 

Once I can get my license changed over, I will look for Nail work there. I will redo the Nail website once I find a good place. I will be posting pictures soon. Everyone take care. Who knows what God has in-store for down the road.

Hello, now that it is the new year people are looking over their New year resolutions and looking toward a diet.  ieihealth.com is a place in Apple valley that does Colon cleansing and Foot Detox baths. They recommend this Lemonade Diet (colon cleanser)

Master Cleanse Recipe

This is the recipe for making 60 ounces of the lemonade for the diet. You should consume about six 10-ounce servings daily, so this makes enough for the entire day.
  • 60 ounces of filtered water
  • 12 tbsp. organic grade-B maple syrup
  • 12 tbsp. organic lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper

It's important to use only filtered water and organic ingredients, because the diet depends on the elimination of toxins! The lemon juice MUST be fresh-squeezed. Bottled lemon juice WILL NOT WORK! This is very important! Also, you MUST used grade-B maple syrup. DO NOT USE BREAKFAST SYRUP! This syrup can be found at health food stores if you can't get it at your local grocery store.

Good Luck.

The perfect poached egg:

 

Bring 2 1/2 inches of water to simmer in a pot.  Add 2 tsp of white wine vinegar. Crack the egg in a bowl and gently pour into pot.  Simmer for 3 minutes. (do not boil) it will tear the egg. Remove with slotted spoon and dab with paper towel. Season with salt and pepper. To make the Classic Eggs Benedict - Just use a spatula to place the egg atop some cooked Canadian bacon on a toasted English muffin. Sprinkle with chopped chives and drizzle with:

 

Blender Hollandaise Sauce:

2 Large Egg Yolks

1 Tsp Lemon Juice

Pinch of cayenne pepper

1/2 tsp kosher salt

Happy Holiday's. We went shopping for the deals the day after Thanksgiving but we didn't find nothing that was all that exciting. But for something nicer than shopping in the store Victoria Secret's online till Dec 3rd is offering 20% off the purchase with the code GET20.

 

And if you need a free Virus Checker go to this website HitechGate to get free Virus software downloads. 

 

Recipe Corner: If you plan on making home made baked beans anytime soon. Martha Stewart or was it Rachel Ray suggest 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice in your baked beans next time they go in the crock pot. I thought that might be different to try.

A quick fun winter drink. Get that Good ol' Vanilla Ice Cream out and put 2 Scoops n a Hot coffee Mug. Add a little water and a little milk and pop it in the microwave for 1 and half minutes. Viola! Hot Vanilla instead of hot chocolate.

Cowboy Christmas in Las Vegas Coming UP! Dec 5th.

Weekend of the Dec 5 - 14 is Cowboy Christmas in Las Vegas - We are talking the Rv, Lord willing.  I hear it's free to get in besides the parking cost, it will be at the Convention Center and the Sand's Hotel. Maybe we will see you there. It's suppose to be a lot of fun, we are looking for a nice hanging coat rack to go up on the wall - we shall see if we find it there.

A lot of people do not know the botanical garden center in Las Vegas is 500 acres. We hope to visit this spot while we are in Las Vegas. It's across from the Meadows Mall.

We also would like to see the Vegas largest Exotic Pet Store, I heard from a friend they sell crazy stuff like bobcats, sugar gliders etc..
