Coming Summer 2012!

Who can name ever single character in this photo?

Back row left to right: Ray Krebbs, Bobby Ewing, Pamela Barnes Ewing, Jock Ewing, J.R. Ewing, Sue Ellen Ewing. Seated: Miss Ellie. Standing in front: Lucy Ewing.

Now maybe I know all their names because the real Southfork Ranch is located in my county. And located near the ranch is a trailer park named Southfork Trailer Park. And in said trailer park each and every street is named after a character. And on the said streets, lots of criminals live and get arrested, thus I see their names and addresses on the jail list daily. But no, this is not how I know the names of these characters. It is because I remember watching Dallas every single week.

I love Dallas. I'll confess... I even own some on DVD. So you can imagine my delight that TNT is bringing Dallas back to us next summer!

I love that JR is still ~~a total turd~~ the villain and Bobby is still the good guy, and it seems their kids didn't fall too far from the tree with John Ross being the new bad boy and Christopher (though adopted) is taking up his father's role. CANNOT WAIT!

P.S. Please don't not respond and tell me that you were not alive when Dallas originally aired. It will be harmful to my psyche. Thank you for your cooperation.

So funny! I had a lawsuit involving southfork ranch. I took several "site visits" so I could "research" for my case. Everytime I got a private tour. The job perks of litigation are far and few between. I'll be watching.

Swiss Oatmeal {Copy Cat Recipe}

I'm obsessed with Swiss Oatmeal. I particularly love Corner Bakery's Swiss Oatmeal. If you are not familiar with Swiss Oatmeal, it is a cold oatmeal cereal with fruit and nuts.

I've had a similar recipe for years, but it was only similar. It wasn't close enough for my liking. So I finally set out into the land of Pinterest to find a recipe that was a good Copy Cat. I found a few, combined them and came up with what I think is a very close Copy Cat Recipe of Corner Bakery's Swiss Oatmeal.

Here's what I do (note, this recipe is really just pictures, because I don't really have measurements for these things. The photos aren't great, but it's easier if I show you what I do)...

Here's the Phase 1ingredients... Milk Honey Yogurt (I use a vanilla greek yogurt) Oats (old fashioned, not quick...you probably could do steel cut too) I've simplified this to where you only need a bowl and a spoon for Phase 1 because I use my yogurt cup as a meas…

It's all about the dress...

I mean I guess it's really all about getting married, but come on, you always anticipate the dress right? Well holy moly folks! Today a big secret was released to the press. No, we still don't know which dress or tiara Kate will be wearing, but we heard for the first time that Princess Diana had a back-up dress! Here are some of the pictures and sketches...

And you know what? I like the back-up dress better than the one she wore! I know, I know. I'm going to get blasted for saying that, but I'll just confess it right now... My name is Kara and I've never thought Princess Diana's dress was all that and a bag of chips. Nope. Not my favorite Royal Wedding Dress by any stretch of the imagination. What is my favorite? Probably the one that Sarah Ferguson wore when she married Andrew...
It had beautiful beading and stitching throughout. Also on the train it had an "A&quo…

Pumpkins, Gourds & Flowers, oh my!

Yesterday, I went to the Dallas Arboretum. Lisa, Jennifer, and I went as my birthday outing. We got a late start due to some court delays, so we stopped for lunch first. I needed some make-up too, so we went to Neimans. We ogled some purses, had lunch, I got some make-up and then we headed out to the arboretum (in the rain).

It was raining pretty good on the way over, but luckily, we only needed umbrellas for a few minutes. Thankfully the sun never came out, because it was so humid, I'm pretty sure we would have melted.

First, we made our way toward the Pumpkin Village...

I love how they made garland out of the mini-pumpkins...

These rose bushes were just stunning! The roses on each bush varied in color from a coral, to a blush, to a purple hue...
It was Fall at the arboretum, and pumpkins, gourds, and mums are a large part of the visit. However, they also have a Chihuly art exhibition going on. I took so many pictures, I HAVE to make that it's whole separate post. …
