Leafs, Stevie B, Freestyle Music...These are a few of my FAVORITE things

" What makes me happy at times?... some of my favorite things...LOL.., Rain drops on roses and whiskers on kittens...."

Hello Everyone.,

Today's post I thought I would tell you about a few of my favorite things.  Sometimes, life can be hard and so you need some things to bring you up, make you smile, make you want to "dance girl" ...On that note, I am going to share with you what I do when I am blue.

Ok, so everyone by now knows I LOVE the Toronto Maple Leafs, and I grew up watching the game. The Leafs and my favorite pink and white jersey make me happpppyyy. Except, when the leafs lose, then I am not so happy, hence why I have other things on my list. LOL.  I have a few leaf tees but my white and pink one is my FAVORITE.  I think because it's a kids jersey and it fits makes me love it more. :) It's a girl thing, fitting in a small size is great!! Hockey in general is a sport I enjoy, and so I also love Mario Lemieux and my program from when I was a kid has made my list of favorites.

Hockey, is not the only sport I like to watch and when I see my ball that I got from the Jays game back in August, I smile.  It reminds me of the great night and how catching a ball at the game can bring a smile to someone's face.

MUSIC...everyone needs it!! I LOVE STEVIE B and freestyle..hahaha. I love to dance in my room to Stevie B and wait, wait, I can not forget Justin.  He always brings sexy back and that song is the best!!!  So, "Dance Girl, Dance.." I have grown to love that phrase.  It always brings a smile to my face.

Starbucks.  How can I describe the feeling of Starbucks? UMMM.... goose bumps on a cold winter's day...I don't know. LOL.  I enjoy it.  I love the Valencia Orange Refresher and the new Chocolate Chai Latte.  They make me so happy.  Both of these drinks are fantastic.

Food.  Who doesn't love food? My favorite snack, is POPCORNERS.  I know, you think I am crazy, but, I am telling you they taste amazing.  They are pop corned chips and are gluten free.  I am trying to be healthy LOL, ok!?! You have to try them.  They have different flavours and they are really good. You can find them at Costco. 

Last but not least, what always makes me laugh besides thinking of certain people..hahaha...is the television show the BIG BANG theory.  I love watching this show.  I can put on the DVD's and watch all night.  "Penny, Penny, Penny.."

So now, you know what I do to make me smile.  I hope you all decide to try my favorite things.  You may want to drink before you try the dancing or the pop corners, but at the end of the day....You'll be happy.!

Until next time boys and girls.." remember, to always just be yourself, it will eventually pay off...." I can not forget to say this, not after last night's amazing game... GO LEAFS GO!!!!

Mucho Burrito is Mucho Bueno LOL

"I will have a large Burrito with shredded beef and all the other great stuff...LOL"

Hello Everyone.,

Today's post is about my experience that I had at Mucho Burrito.  Last week, I went into Mucho Burrito, this is not my first time at Mucho Burrito.  I actually really enjoy Mucho Burrito.  Did I say the word Burrito enough times yet? hahaha.  I love burrito's, can you tell?

I really enjoy this place.  It has a lot of options and the food is really good.  I'm always nervous when I have to go into a place for the first time, I never know what I am going to find. LOL.  Here, I found Cassandra and Maria, yes, that's my shout out to you two girls. :)) They were friendly and made my food really well.  I have tried numerous things on their menu.  My favorite is...yes, the burrito but I am going to say this, I really like the salad bowl they offer too. 

What makes this place different from other Burrito places? Well, for one it's clean.  Muy importante. They also offer a great selection on their menu.  They have pulled pork!!!! They give you the opportunity to create your selection and they do it at a great rate of speed. 

I wish they had cheaper pricing but I guess, that goes without saying...LOL.  I recommend this place, it really does fill you up and the food is great.  Enjoy, those burrito's ladies and gent, and make sure you try the shredded beef, it's kind of my favorite.

Until next time boys and girls... "remember to always just be yourself, it will eventually pay off..."  I have to add this, GO LEAFS GOOOO!!! (Sorry, they are doing so well....next Leaf game I'm having a burrito while I watch them kick butt!!!!)

Here are some pics of Mucho Burrito...... SEE, are they not huge?! LOL

Theresa Caputo Mentions Toronto Maple Leafs!!

" I consider myself a regular Long Island Mom..." (Theresa Caputo)

Hello Everyone.,

Today's post is about my experience last night.  I had tickets to go see Theresa Caputo, TLC's Long Island Medium.  Many people are skeptics to when it comes to mediums and I must admit, I think that many are phony but I do believe Theresa Caputo does have a gift.  I do believe that she can communicate with spirit. 

I did not get a reading from Theresa last night, but, there were probably 20,000 people in the Sony Centre and the people she did read, really seem to need the closure. I am not at all disappointed that I did not get a reading, but, I do have to say this, I can see why people are drawn to her.  She has this crazy personality, after all, she is Italian. LOL.  I personally was obsessed with her $1500 Louboutins that she was wearing, looks like this "regular" Long Island Mom is doing extremely well now.  I am happy that she has this gift but honestly, last night felt like a big show.  She promoted her fan club, yup, she has a fan club??!! She promoted her book.  She was dressed really, really nice.  I loved her David Yurman Ring as well. LOL.  I just think that maybe, the gift she was given is now being exploited. 

I hope she gave peace to all the people she read, and she mentioned the TORONTO Maple Leafs, so Theresa, good job on knowing which city you were in!! By the way, congrats on the win last night BUDS, sorry, I missed the game! 

She did give me more perspective on life, like I needed to think more..LOL.  I do believe there is more after here, and she convinced us all last night.  She even said she felt the presence of God to one lady she read, and that usually never happens.  So, are you worried people are watching you?! I personally feel safe knowing I have angels up there looking down on me and helping me choose and make right choices.  No one is perfect, and we all make mistakes, so isn't it nice to know that spirit places people in our lives to help us with being happy and trying to correct our mistakes?! Sometimes, we are really hard on ourselves and we let guilt stand in the way of our happiness and that is what I learned last night.  It is ok, to make mistakes.  It is ok, to try and make yourself happy.  You can not please everyone, and you will make errors.  Guilt, will only stop you from being happy.

Theresa Caputo, you are one of a kind... I wish you all the best, but, I do not think I will be coming to another show again. 

Until next time boys and girls.. "remember to always to just be yourself, it will eventually pay off..."

My New Obsession at STARBUCKS

" Can I have a Grande Non Fat, Extra Foam with Whip, Chocolate Chai Latte...??"

Hello Everyone.,

Anyone who knows me, knows I enjoy Starbucks.  My favorite drink as I wrote about previously is the Valencia Orange Refresher.  Now, my dear readers, I found a hot beverage I enjoy immensely.  I usually like cold drinks and again I am not a coffee drinker but this drink gives me stars in my eyes. 

I'm not sure, if I love Starbucks so much because they gave me 2 free drinks one yesterday and one the other day but I think it's the service and quality of drinks that they offer that has me going back.  So, here is my new love.  Chocolate Chai Latte.  It tastes so good.  Make sure you add the whip, it's worth the calories.  This drink tastes like chocolate, cinnamon, cappuccino drink without the coffee.  It is made with creamy cocoa, steamed milk and black tea with spices.  It smells so good and that makes the taste of the drink even better.

Usually, I do venture out and have that Pumpkin Spice Latte, but, since this one is without the coffee, I have to say everyone, I prefer the Chai Latte.  It is a must try for all of you readers who love chocolate and whip cream. LOL.  So, I'm assuming a lot of you will be trying this drink in the near future.!!

Once again, Starbucks, you created a fabulous drink for me.  Now, I have a favorite cold drink and a hot one.  I am very happy with you guys.  You are one of my favorite places to venture out too.  The drive through helps too, especially when it's raining and I do not want to wet my hair..LOL.

Go to a Starbucks soon and get that Chocolate Chai Latte, you will not be disappointed.  Love you Starbucks, keep up the great service !! See you tomorrow....now, I need to figure out which drink I want the Chai Latte or my Valencia Refresher.?!

Until next time boys and girls, " remember to always be yourself, it will eventually pay off..."

I was trying to get a good shot of the Chai Latte...LOL.



Congrats! Toronto Maple Leafs, you got your first win!! Let's keep it up!

" Early in the season the special teams usually have a huge impact on the success or failure of your group.  Tonight, I thought our special teams were the success of the game..."  ( Randy Carlyle, TML coach, Oct 1st, after the game)

Hello Everyone..,

HOCKEY IS BACK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I guess, I'm a little excited. LOL.  I am proud for one that this team pulled the victory on opening night.  Yes, it was a close game but you know what, a win is a win and we won !!!!!!!!!!!!!  So, congrats to my boys in blue.  I wish you so much success in the season ahead.

Right before game time, the Toronto Maple Leafs made a huge announcement in signing Phil Kessel to a new 8 year contract. $64 million dollar deal.  Not to shabby.  I knew, I should have married a hockey player, well, technically, I still can. LOL.  So, many people would think that this is insane but hey, he did get us an assist last night in the first goal.  I am sure Phil will stand proud as a leaf as did Matt Sundin did and we will have a super team for this season. 

Congrats to our goalie last night James Reimer who got us the win and I must add I thought he played great last season.  So, I was happy to see him start for the leafs in their first game. So, he deserved the first star of the night.., yes, it went to him.  Phil.., I think since you got that huge contract, maybe, you should have gotten something, ?? LOL. Oh ya, you got the money. 

Welcome back boys...I am proud you beat the MONTREAL Canadians who booed us when we came out but that's ok, cause we won the game!!!! Here's to a new season....  See you tonight boys in Phillie.., let's make it another win!!  Toronto loves you..., bring that cup back to this city !!!!! GO LEAFS GOOOOO!!!!

Until next time boys and girls... remember, to always just be yourself, it will eventually pay off..."

End Of the Season for the Jays

"OK, OK., Blue Jays, Blue Jays, Let's Play Ball...."

Hello Everyone..,

I wanted to write a quick post in honoring the Toronto Blue Jays.  I have been to 4 games this year, and even though my beloved Jays did not perform to every one's standards this year, they won at every game I went too.!! 

I had a blast this summer at all my games.  Every game was an experience.  I had someone catch me a ball on the Aug 30th game. I'm scared of those balls, so thank you officer for catching me that ball.  I got to eat a foot long hot dog at all 4 of my games. I got to meet some great people at the Aug 15th game and the Yankee's game of last, Sept 19th was so much fun.  My Jays won 6-2.  I am a proud Torontonian.  I am sad the season is over soon, but, that only means that hockey is back !!!!

Thank you, to all who took me to games and who attended games with me.  Congrats, Blue Jays.  I know next year, will be a better year.  See you next year....  I can not wait to come back and have another hot dog!! LOL. 

"Take me out to the ball game, take me out with the crowd...." ( Edward Meeker)

Until next time boys and girls.. "remember to always just be yourself, it will eventually pay off..."

Prisoners with Jake Gyllenhaal

" So, I think I want that Beef Vindaloo at Moxie's for dinner...LOL "

Hello Everyone.,

It has been a while since my last post as I was trying to figure it out what I wanted to talk about next.  This weekend, I went to the movies and saw the movie Prisoners.  As, I mentioned to you in previous posts, I love going to movies, love time play and free points with scene.  For the first time ever, I did not come in the top 10 at time play, so I think that may have affected my thoughts on this flick. LOL.

Prisoners stars Hugh Jackman and the sexy Jake Gyllenhaal.  Jake in the movie plays a detective.  Ok, so I have to mention this, I have a thing with police officers.  Well, maybe, it's because I know a really hot police officer, LOL.  Regardless, Jake is great in the movie.  I have always thought he had talent and he definitely shows off his skills in this movie.  The movie is about 2 little girls who go missing on Thanksgiving Day and Jake needs to solve the case.

I have to say that this move was sooooooooooooooo long.  I kept thinking about how we were going for dinner to Moxie's after and I wanted Beef Vindaloo and the Leaf game was on. If this movie did not drag out for over 2 hours, yes, over 2 hours, it would have been a huge hit.  It has a great story line and Hugh Jackman also did a really great job playing one of the little girls father.  However, seriously, I got the point after the first hour of the movie.  As much I enjoyed staring at Jake on the big screen, it really could have been 40 mins shorter. 

The ending was surprising and I do not want to ruin it for anyone, so, I am going to say this...GO SEE IT, but make sure your not tired when you go or you will pass out mid way. LOL.  Order the largest bag of popcorn so it occupies you as you watch the movie.

I recommend this movie, despite it's long antics.  The acting was great and the storyline was catchy and intriguing to a point. I would not say, it was one of my favorite movies, but, I will say it will leave you talking about it afterwards.

So, until next time boys and girls... "remember to always be yourself, it will eventually pay off..."
