A little bit classy; A little bit trashy... and a tag!


So driving around in your car with the music blaring and the bass turned way up is a bit trashy. But sometimes a girl's gotta have fun! As you know I love to sing (loudly) in my car. It's like some sort of endorphin release thing... Really, it feels great! My kids don't like my music much. Alexander much prefers Laurie Berkner and Rebecca would have A Party In The USA on 24/7. So when the kids are gone it's my turn to take control of the dash. Perhaps my trashy blaring music would seem just a little bit more classy if I told you it was Michael Buble? And truth be told, I've been known to blare some mean Sinatra as well!


I took Alexander and his little friend to McDonald's for lunch. Truth be told my kids don't eat that much kid food and I really don't know what most kids like. I bought hot dogs only to find out that this little boy doesn't like them. So I decided we'd have a fine meal at The Golden Arches.That's totally trashy, but in a totally good way. I didn't order anything, but managed to eat half his fries! So now I have this package of hot dogs. And my husband is in Seattle. I'm thinking hot dogs for the kiddos for dinner. Totally trashy! And for myself, perhaps a little bubly. Totally classy! Now on to the tag...


The Ever Adorable Queen Bee Swain tagged me in the Friday Tag Game.

I am now tagging my friend Jo over at Bees & Fleur de Lis and The Preppy Cricket because that's just the cutest name ever! Sweet Tea in Seattle because I love sweet tea and my husband is in Seattle (where it's cold and rainy!) and I just love her OOTD posts... My new friend, The Blushing Hostess, because her blog is just so smart and clever and unique. (She posted the final dinner on the Titanic!) And last but not least, My Farmhouse Kitchen because she bought the Thanksgiving Blend at Starbucks for her kitchen (because she loved the packaging) and she doesn't even drink coffee!
