What He Says and What She Hears

Everyone in the world hears and understands things differently. This hold extremely true to what men say to women, and what women say to men.

"I'll me home around __pm." Now, when a woman hears this, she is expecting you to me home around ?-?:30. Most woman are more punctual then men when it comes right down to it, when they say they will be at a curtain place at a curtain time. If he is really going to be home 2-3 hours later than what he says, he should have said "I'll be home late". This saves everyone a headache. As the guy you are not late, and us woman are not sitting around glaring at the clock at ?pm or later fuming because you said you would be home at a curtain time.

Women ask men " Do you like my new ______ ?" or "Did you like _____?" and of course we are fishing for a compliment.
     "It was okay/ It's okay" Normally this is not what a woman wants to hear. It is generic, not a compliment in anyway, and makes us feel that you really could care less. Keep in mind we are fishing for a compliment, just say " It was really good", " I like it", or being super crafty and be like " I really liked  the ______" and pick something out to comment on.

"I am just never in the mood" Now this is a tricky and sticky situation a lot of woman do fine them selfs in. When we hear this a few alarms start going off in our heads. He isn't attracted to me anymore, he is seeing someone else, and alot of other things but that are just a couple. But we do have to give the guy the benefit of the doubt that he is just never in the mood or that when you are he isn't or visaversa. Keep in mind we women can be some what fragile in this department.  All in all when we hear this 100 different things go threw our minds and it makes a crazy.

"I'm going to the store" Now woman normally ask what are you going for because we tend to say 'We need _____ if your going' but when nothing is really needed from the store, we tend to here "I need to get out of the house for a while', I don't want to be around you right now', or You are being annoying". If any of these are the case, do us a favor and just say "I'm going out for a bit". Saves another headache with all of the speculating.


Hope everyone one has a Happy Hoilday!

Holiday Treats!

I have lots of recipes I really need to post... But here are a few good Holiday Treats I just recently made on Monday.

Oreo Truffles:

• 1 bag of oreos
• Plan Cream Cheese, 8 oz.
• 1  lb.  white baking chocolate (I like the Ghirardelli White Chocolate)

Get the cream cheese out so it can soften. Crush the cookies in a large ziplock baggy. I used a rolling pin to get the cookies as finely crushed as I could. Then in a large bowl combine crushed cookies and cream cheese. With a hand mixer on low speed to mix the cookies and cream cheese. After mix I put the bowl in the frig for about 20 mins so it hardens up some. Then using a teaspoon 1-inch balls by hand. Place the Oreo balls on  wax paper covered cookie sheets and place in the freezer for about 20 mins so they harden. Dip balls in white chocolate; place back on  baking sheet covered with waxed paper. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until firm. To store, cover and refrigerate.
This makes about 50 truffles. That is if you are not like me and eat the mix while you are waiting for the chocolate to melt.

Soft Ginger Cookies:

Okay so I 100% did not make these cookies from scratch... I used the box of  Betty Crocker Gingerbread mix and fallowed the directions.

But my only personal note to this directions on the box is only bake for 9 mins, not 8 or 10!!! 9 mins is perfect to reach a delicious soft ginger cookie!

Also mine do not have sugar on them... They are good with and with out!



Happy Holidays!
