Where the heck is Lincolnton?

Right next to Washington, of course!  :)

Once every couple of months or so, Hubbyman and I decide to go on a random roadtrip.  We look at the Atlas to find a town with a cool or funny or odd sounding name then figure out a back road way of getting there.  We have seen a good portion of GA and parts of the surrounding states by doing this and have found wonderful treasures like Finster's Garden, Pasaquan, and the Smiling Peanut!  Granted, most of the "destinations" end up being nothing special but that's really not the point of the trips.  It's just the 2 of us in a car without any other distractions.  We don't even turn on the radio.

This past weekend we decided to go to Lincolnton, GA because...well...it's right next to Washington and that made us a giggle.  Yes, Hubbyman giggles but don't tell him I told you. ;)

We do take quite a few pictures. His tend to be more scenic while mine are usually more silly. This time I used my juice box camera, though, so I need to get the film developed before I can post them.

But, for now, here are a few pics I snapped with my phone. :)


We're on the road!  (I *really* need a haircut)
This keeps Hubbyman fueled for the trip.  His car gets much better mileage than my minivan (yes, I drive a minivan) but it's a stick which I can't get the hang of driving so he does all the driving most of the time.
Pretty green...even if it is kudzu. :)
I had my phone in the B&W setting and managed to get this picture out the open window as we drove by.
He gets grumpy when I take his picture while he's driving but he looks so cute in his road trip uniform: driving hat and camera. :)

One of my favorite bloggers went on a road trip this weekend as well!  You can check out Meg's pictures here!

Opinion Needed: Matron of Honor dress

I am so excited! My little sister is getting married in October and I get to be her matron-of-honor for the wedding. :) They are having a small ceremony and she wants a Gothic feel to her wedding so she told me to just get a dress that fits that theme. Heh heh... I can do that! I originally ordered this dress from Roaman's : I thought it was pretty, simple, could easily be "gothed up" and, best of all, it was on sale AND I had a 40% coupon so I got a good deal on it. When I received it, the seams were extremely puckered and the pleating across the bodice hung in a horrible, unflattering way. And it wasn't from me not filling it out! The lining was rather snug across the boobages. So I returned it in exchange for another. The seams were better but I still had the same issue with the pleating. So I've decided to make my own. Here are my plans. :) And yes, that is indeed TV dinner paper that I wrote on. If you click here , you will see my wedding dress which uses the...

My Dinner Guest

I had a wonderful guest for dinner last night. His name was Henry and he was delicious! (*evil grin*) I had no idea that sculpting with meat could actually be fun! I started with 5 pounds of ground beef mixed with 4 cups of diced onion, 10 oz roasted garlic bread crumbs, 4 eggs, 1/4 cup tomato sauce, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. I put a roasted onion inside his cranium as filler/a brain and used raw onion for his eyes and teeth. I actually kind of grossed myself out when I covered him with tomato sauce. LOL Next was a nice layer of provolone cheese slices. I ended up putting a few toothpicks in the side pieces before cooking to help hold the cheese in place over the tomato sauce. He was roasted at 350-degrees for 100 minutes. I had to hack off his chin for my piece. I *had* to.... I'm not sure what that says about me but yeah. I had to. :) I did learn a couple of things for when I make this in August. ** I need to pack the meat a lot tighter and mince the onion inste...
