These were the most delicious potatoes I’ve ever had, I swear! In Australia their called Crash Hot Potatoes, I don’t know why (any Australians have some insight?), whatever the name, they were SO awesome! And super simple, just boil some baby potatoes (I used red) until fork tender. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Drizzle olive oil on a baking sheet, set potatoes on sheet and using a potato masher, gently smash each potato down, rotating masher both ways (so it looks like a thick cookie). Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt/pepper and sprinkle cut fresh herbs and garlic over each. THEN top with some lovely grated Parmesan cheese. Bake for 20 minutes. OMG…crispy on the outside, soft in the middle, salty, garlicky, herby and cheesy goodness. I need to make more now!

4 oz warm water

Mix dry ingredients first, then slowly add to wet as the vinegar and baking soda will react slightly. Put into spray bottle and spray pets down. Be careful not to get in pets eyes!

★★★When fleas infest your home, they can get everywhere; in fact, any place your dog or cat frequents, fleas will be present. Carpets, rugs and upholstered furniture are especially vulnerable to infestation. Adult fleas jump from animals to these surfaces and lay eggs. These eggs hatch as larvae that can get caught in carpet fibers, creating an on-going problem.
Vacuuming and steam cleaning carpets and rugs will help, but there are natural treatments that can be even more effective. One of these treatments is safe and uses a common everyday substance – salt. Yes, you can get rid of fleas with salt! The salt acts as a dehydration agent and dries out the bodies of the fleas.
How to kill fleas using salt: Obtain some highly refined household salt or sea salt. Make sure it is as finely ground as possible, almost to a powder consistency. Sprinkle it lightly but evenly over your carpet. Brush or rake it in. Leave this in your carpet for 12 to 48 hours, then vacuum thoroughly.
Salt can attract moisture, so do not leave it in for very long in very hot or humid conditions. This should kill all the fleas and ticks in your home and on your pets.

Eat that salt, flea! Die Flea Die!! (Manic laughter)

DON'T SKIP BREAKFAST!!!

Don't skip breakfast!!

Most people think skipping meals helps with weight loss...in the long run this is NOT the case and skipping breakfast is probably the worst one to skip!

If you're eating right, your food is like fuel for your body. Think about it, if you didn't put any gas in your car, how long would it run before it broke down?...

Same thing with your body...when you're sleeping you're body is busy using nutrients to repair, rebuild and restore your body. So when you wake up, it's ready to "fill up" again so it can get the day going!

Of course, high sugar cereals are NOT fuel. So don't make that your breakfast routine...

But healthier choices - protein sources like an organic hard boiled egg, fresh fruits, nuts, etc. can be a great way to get going!

So don't think you're going to lose weight by skipping breakfast! You can actually cause the exact opposite to happen!

Woah!!! It's been a month!!! How the time flies. A LOT has happened in the last month..... I went to Vegas for the first time, for 7 days. My friends and I had a great time except for this one bus tour we went on.. It was the worst experienve EVER!!! Here is what happened:

8/8/2014. We were told to be outside of the Golden Nugget at 7:45 am, We were out there at 7:30 and made a call when the shuttle bus had not arrived by 7:55am. We were told that the bus was on its way.

We got to the Miracle Mile shopping center where on your website we were supposed to have gotten a coupon book. We were told NO there was no coupon book, but when we showed the website where it clearly states that there was indeed supposed to be a coupon book, the manager went and found some for us.

Next, we started on the tour, we asked for the air conditioning to be turned up, and it was not. It was VERY HOT for the entire ride. The tour guide, Angela, Did have some good information but talked mostly about drinking and going to have a drink(alcohol).

We get to the Mike O’Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, and Angela(the tour guide) told us to meet the bus back after we checked out the bridge in 30 minutes(they had to drop off the “floaters” at the other area). We all were back in 30 minutes, and the bus was not back in that 30 minutes, In fact they were not back for another 40 mins(for a total of 70 minutes). There was no water there, no shade, and we all were outside in 100+ degree weather. I was very upset at this point. I live in Minnesota, and I am really not used to such high temperatures.

So the bus finally comes back…we get on the bus, there is still no air conditioning, and we are told there is NO WATER on the bus(it clearly states on your website that there would be). We travel to the Hoover Dam, take the tour and make it back to the bus on time to take us to Ethel M.’s Chocolate factory. We were to be back at the bus at 3:15pm(they also stated that they were going to change buses). I was in line waiting to pay for my chocolate at about 3:13, The bus driver walked through the building looked right at me, and exited the store. We Walked out to where the bus originally was at 3:19, looked around , thought maybe one of the other buses that were there was ours, but no! People were streaming off of the buses! This bus driver stranded myself and my friend at Ethel M.’s!!!

It was 106 degrees that day. That is HOT. So to end the story, we were offered a ride from a nice family for Pennsylvania! God does work in mysterious ways... We ended up safe and sound.

This tour was from purchased from Groupon and it was for the hooverdamtourcompany.com

Oh and BTW their drivers/tour guides Lie to save their butts and their customer service sucks.
