Song of Day: Girls just want to have fun

Happy hump day!  Okay I've been listening to the Pat Benatar Pandora station all week.  And, I am not gonna lie, it is fricking awesome!   Anyway, this song came on today and I forgot how much I loved it. "Girls just want to have FUN!"

And the angels sing...

As some of you may know, I hear angels sing (ie a religious experience) when I enter an Apple store or Bloomingdale's in NYC.  The other night Izzie Apple (the pup) somehow locked herself in my closet with all my shoes.  And while I don't have really expensive shoes...I do have some that I adore that are nice.  Thankfully, she just fell asleep in there.  I am pretty sure though that she heard angels sing when she found my closet of shoes.

Happy Saturday.

A few of my favorite things

Happy Friday!  We had an ice storm here this week.  So while I got to work from home for a few days (read: led to SERIOUS cabin fever), I am ready for the weekend, some fun, time outside and wine.

In completely unrelated news, below are a few of my favorite things:

1) A new hydrating body oil

2) Prosecco

And the pink version I recently found

3) Meyer's Lavender Air Freshener

4) Bose soundlink

Slow Cooker Sunday: Chicken Tortilla Soup

I've been a complete slacker on Slow Cooker Sunday lately, but it's a bit cold here at the beach.  And, I am feeling the need for some yummy soup.  I am going to try Chicken Tortilla Soup tonight.  I found THIS recipe on Campbell's Soup website.

Ingredients:
1 cup Pace Picante
2 cans Campbell's condensed cream  of chicken soup
1 pound skinless chicken, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
2 cups frozen whole kernel corn
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 soup can water
1 teaspoon ground cumin
4 corn tortillas, cut into strips
1 coup shredded cheddar cheese
1/3 cup chopped cilantro

How to Make It:
1) Stir the picante, soup, chicken, corn, beans, water and cumin into slow cooker
2) Cover and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours or until chicken is cooked through
3) Stir tortillas, cheese and cilantro into cooker.  Cook for 15 minutes.

Off to the beach for a walk w/ Izzie the puppy!  That is after I wake Izzie up!  :0  Happy Sunday!

Song: Wake me up

Lately, I've been listening to Pandora at the office and THIS SONG comes on...I kind of love it.  Enjoy and happy Sunday!
