Remodelaholic ? Blog Archive Day 5 of 31 days series

?

I just feel like talking today, being thankful.? Here is what is up in my house:

?

IMG_0135

I feel like life has been moving by really quickly lately.? Since we moved from Texas, back to Utah we have been in the midst of downsizing our house by 1,000 square feet and living without a kitchen.? It has been 2 months.

?

I am not complaining, it is really not that bad.?? Sorta like camping and I like camping.? Besides, I have been trying out tons of fun crockpot meals, and our pancake griddle can do so many more things than just make pancakes.

?

Surprisingly I am perfectly comfortable in our smaller house, it is not too small.? I guess in Texas we had a lot of underutilized space that just needed to be cleaned.? Although I miss having an office I can close myself into occasionally to get something done without interruption, I miss our stay at my home babysitters and of course I miss our friend?s weekly play dates.

?

Etta cute face

But I love how my girls are getting older, Growing up so close to family.? We got to go to my sister in law?s baby shower last night and it was so fun to have my girls play with her girls and my husband get to just hang out with my brother.? I have MISSED that in Texas.? I am so happy that my kids are getting to know their grandparents on both sides.? It pretty much melts my heart when I hear Lydia say ?I Yuv you!? to our parents.

We have been taking advantage of the wonderful fall weather, and the canyon trails.? We?ve been eating a bounteous supply of peaches, apples, pears and whatever else we can find in my mother?s GINORMOUS garden.? One of my favorite thing is this Peach Heaven Recipe:

?

Peach Heaven

1 large box Vanilla Wafers (I have substituted Animal crackers)

1 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar

1 stick of butter (1/2 Cup)

1 beaten egg (substitute milk)

10 Cups Fresh Sliced Peaches

1 Pint Whipping Cream (whipped and sweetened to taste)

?

Directions:

1. Smash wafers into crumbs, (reserve 1/4 of the crumbs) Sprinkle evenly over the bottom of a 9 x 13 pan.

2. In a bowl cream together powdered sugar, butter and egg.? (I feel like this could be doubled.... but it adds a lot of calories so your choice.? Also, ?I substituted milk, it is basically a frosting of sorts anyway, you don't want it too wet though, 1/4 cup should be plenty)? Once mixed, put dots of mixture over crumbs and very carefully spread out.? This is not an easy step, because it moved the crumbs so easily which is another reason doubling it might be helpful!

3. Slice all your peaches, I left the skins on cause I like them, but that is a personal preference remove them if desired.? Layer them all over the "frosting" layer, nice and thick!

4. Cover all with whipped cream and sprinkle with remaining crumbs!? This is best if it has been in the fridge for a few hours, although I will admit, the first time I made it I didn't wait ten minutes to eat it, and I still loved it!

That is it!? Enjoy!? If you try this, you will love it, I promise!? And it is so easy, your kids could help you make it.?? Lydia loved it, yes that much that she licked the plate!

Infintech Designs Provides Custom Graphic Web Design, SEO, and ...

(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 06, 2012 ) New Orleans, LA -- Infintech Designs is today announcing its continued expansion of offering new orleans web design and also focuses on SEO, online marketing, social media marketing, and creating custom easy-to-navigate websites for small to large businesses.

According to the founder, Brian Hong, the online community has become so huge and varied that today businesses are expected to have a good-looking website, but this is not the end-all, in fact without proper marketing techniques, the website can go unnoticed.

"It's really not hard to understand." According to Hong, "Having a great-looking and user friendly website is just the beginning, without the proper marketing techniques, how is anyone going to find your site? Here is where people get stuck: they hire a graphics company to create a snazzy website and they never see traffic, why? There was no marketing. We designed Infintech Designs to be more than just a company that would provide you with a user-friendly website, we help you with marketing efforts such as SEO, Pay Per Click PPC, blog posting, article writing, and social media. All of these combined is what will increase your website traffic and ultimately make you more money".

"There are literally thousands of websites on the Internet but most of these will never be found by anyone simply because they are not using the right tools that the search engines look for when ranking websites", said Hong. According to Hong, Infintech Designs wants to be the premier go-to company for both web design new orleans and marketing via seo new orleans.

"As a company we have been able to take a website, spruce it up, optimize it, market various aspects of the website using SEO, PPC and social media and watch the increase in traffichappen. When online businesses understand the importance of Internet marketing, they can turn their site around with some guidance and help. Having said that, you must understand that I'm not saying the way your website looks is not important, of course it is - but to have a great website and no traffic is simply spinning your wheels", Hong said.

Infintech Designs also has a very impressive blog that is packed with categories that can help clients to understand the importance of social media, writing good headlines, search engine marketing, and email marketing to name a few. According to Hong, "The articles on our blog our there for one reason, to help our visitors and clients understand everything there is to know about having a website and what you need to do to drive targeted traffic to the site. The resources are on the blog so that when people finish reading and leave they will know what it takes to make their site a success. The blog is there for anyone to see - we don't ask you to join our website or make the blog only available to those clients that have hired us. The blog and information there is a gift to anyone that wants to learn more about online marketing".

Starbucks? Square Rollout Gets A Launch Date; No Loyalty Card Integration (Yet)

SquareAt its three-day Global Leadership Conference this week, Starbucks announced further details about its planned rollout and support for Square's mobile payments platform. First revealed in August, the deal will allow iPhone and Android users to pay using the Square mobile app at Starbucks' 7,000 U.S. locations. Now, we have a more exact timeframe for that launch: early November. (Previously, the company had said "before the holidays.") But Starbucks has also been busy updating its own native mobile applications, which allow customers to pay with their Starbucks card via an app. And now that app supports Passbook on iOS, too. While it's good that a company like Starbucks is embracing mobile payment innovation, in the immediate future, mobile payments are going to get a little messy.

HARTSVILLE, S.C. (AP) ? A South Carolina high school football player died Friday night after having to be helped off the field following a tackle and then collapsing on the sideline.

Ronald Rouse, an 18-year-old senior lineman for the Hartsville Red Foxes, collapsed during the second quarter of Hartsville's homecoming game against Crestwood at Kelleytown Stadium, the Morning News of Florence reported (http://bit.ly/RjQL7M ).

The the 6-foot-3, 320-pound Rouse was involved in a tackle and stayed on the ground afterward, Hartsville Mayor Mel Pennington wrote in an email. Team officials helped Rouse to his feet and he walked to the sideline, where he collapsed.

EMS crews worked to revive Rouse and transported him to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead, Pennington said. The teams played the remaining 3:39 of the first half, and with Hartsville up 27-7, the school conducted its homecoming celebration and crowned a king and queen.

The players didn't return to the field for the second half, and Hartsville Principal Charles Burry announced over the public address system that the game was suspended due to the seriousness of Rouse's condition.

Some fans wept as the stands quietly emptied, the Morning News reported.

A large crowd, including team members still in uniform, gathered later outside the emergency room at Carolina Pines Regional Medical Center consoled one another as they waited to express their grief to Rouse's family.

The mayor, who ordered flags be flown at half-mast, urged residents "to take a moment and ask God to be with this family, to help them find peace in this chaos, and to help this team deal with the grief and shock of losing a brother."

Darlington County Coroner J. Todd Hardee said in a statement late Friday that an autopsy will be conducted Saturday to determine the cause of death.
