FRESH PAINT & PEPPERMINT CUPCAKES...

I finally broke down and painted the ceiling today. (Next step is the entire room. ugh!) Anyways, as I was nearly halfway finished, I was finishing the ceiling area around my door when my dad pulled up causing Pookie (weiner dog) to bark like a crazy person. He went running & of course ran straight through my paint tray, right on top of my zebra print rain boots, my jacket, the floor, the rug, and then the couch. The bright red suede couch! So I had a trail white Pookie foot prints all over the place! I was so proud of myself too for not making a mess and doing such a good job in such a hurry.

Pookie ruined it! I could've strangled him. So I hurried to wipe the paint off the couch I used a wet wash cloth and thankfully, it seems to have came off pretty good. It's still there if you look close, but I'm just glad it's mostly gone.

Then I had to take care of my boots. It came off perfectly. But my floor & rug still have white pookie prints. Lol. And Pookie's paws are totally white all the way to his arms! It's kinda cute, so I left it there. But the fresh paint smell, I LOVE!

After all that painting, my back was killing me! It hurt so bad I could've cried. My arms are sore as well as my legs & I have 6 bruises! My entire left hip is a huge bruise. How do I manage to hurt myself doing simple tasks?

Then thank God the boyfriend got off work & cleaned the rest & finished the little bit of painting I had left. And then my mom came with a huge peppermint cupcake! I love those things they're seriously huge!

 

   Isn't it beautiful? It's so pretty I almost wanted to sit it on a shelf & just stare at it, but you know me. I ate it! lol Well, not all of it, I only ate a few bites.. ok 6 bites. lol I thought it'd be better to only eat a little bit for now. It really is big.

My PeArL of the day-Thursday

My PeArL of the day is...

Vanilla ice cream with instant coffee (I use maxwell house) srpinkled on top. I created this little dessert a couple of years ago and ended up loving it! Its really good. But if you're not a coffee person then it may not be good to you. I love coffee and I like it strong so I usually cover the ice cream in instant coffee. You can use how ever much you like.

 This is one of my favorite desserts. Hope some of you will try it! Let me know what you think.
