She's Here!

What a day! First of all, I started out the day super excited because last night I had sent a Direct Tweet to Cory Booker commenting on a speech he had given. In case you aren't Twitter savvy, a Direct Tweet is a private tweet that goes to a person's e-mail instead of out to the twitterverse for all to see. You can only send Direct Tweets to people who follow you, which is the joy of having someone as a follower. Anyway, he Direct Tweeted me back, which makes me super happy. It's like we are friends. At least in my mind.

Then about 10:00 I was drying my hair and heard Lola causing such a commotion. I knew that either my new fairy godmother was here or there was a squirrel in the back yard. I rushed into the living room and found Lola at the front door (a good sign!) and sure enough, there was a package on my porch. I couldn't get Lola to move over she was so excited. It was like she thought the darn phone was for her!

Here is the box that was within the box...

I carefully took the lid off and heard angels sing... AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!


I had to get my receipt out from the pre-order process because it contained the directions for activating the new FGM. I have to show you the ridiculousness that is this receipt. I had to tape it to the wall so that you could see it all...
I've got her all up and running and am so excited. I'm only a little bummed because I just realized that to do "Face Time" chats, you both have to be on a wireless connection (at least for now, that may change to 3g sometime).
I've listed my old FGM on Craigslist, so hopefully she will sell and pay for the new one! I did have to show you this next pic because it shows what a great FGM she has been...
Yep. I talked on her for 22 days and 7 hours. When I wonder why I have cancer in a few years, you can remind me why.

And finally, to round out this great day.... It is only 92 degrees right now and it is RAINING! At least I think that is what is falling from the sky. It's been so long, I can hardly remember! So far, it hasn't rained as much as it needs to, but maybe it will keep it up.

I <3 my iPhone4. If you jailbreak it and your fellow Face Chat has also done a jailbreak then you can do it without internet over your 3G regular network with no extra billing charges. :)

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 1 ingredients...   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 becau
