I was reading all the hype about hummus and was reluctant to try it. It just didn't look or sound appealing to me. I finally gave in because if I'm going to be in the culinary field I need to try everything! I bought a small container of it and dipped a spoon in to sample some.
OH. MY. GOD
Sooo good! It tastes like bean dip! I got the roasted sweet pepper kind and you can taste the sweetness of the peppers and the flavor of the chickpeas. I also got a hint of lemon. The taste is phenomenal! I got out a tortilla and went to town. I was extremely amazed at how good it is! I suggest that if you want a great dip go for hummus! I plan on trying more flavors the next time I go grocery shopping!

Avon Detox Patches
So since I am an Avon rep I decided to be a lab mouse and try out some products. Avon started selling the detox patches you put on the soles of your feet before bed for 3 nights. I saw commercials of a similar product so I decided to try them out. The morning of the first night the patches were black! It looked like my body was full of tar! These patches suck all the bad stuff out of your body and I started feeling so much better! By the third morning the patches were just green (the reason behind that is because there is green tea in them) and no black or anything! I haven't had really bad anxiety after using them so I think I'm going to keep buying them and see how much they improve my health and wellbeing. I truly recommend this product if not through Avon, try the ones they have advertised on TV you'll be amazed at how truly well they work and trust me I was as skeptical as you might be right now too!

But...you don't even know that person that well!
Do you ever meet someone and know that you don't like them? That has happened to me a few times. I think..."How can I really dislike someone that I really don't know?" I guess its just instinct that your inner feelings go "Woah, that person is NOT someone to befriend". I think its your mind's way to help you stay safe from people who you should not trust. I have had that feeling about this one wife. I had met her when I went to my hubby's units thing and gave her the benefit of the doubt but my mind was screaming "NO, do NOT even try it" I just thought she was too fake and trying too hard. It seemed like she wants to make sure everyone like her so she plays like nothing bothers her. I can't reveal too much about her because this is a public blog so the people here will probably know who I'm talking about but we'll just say that her and her husband are not in the unit anymore which is a good thing for me. About hubby's unit...well...that is another blog that might be discussed at a later date....maybe when we are moved! haha

I've been tagged
Once you've been tagged, you have to write a blog with 10 random things, facts, habits or goals about yourself. At the end, you choose about 10 people to be tagged, listing their names and why you chose them. Don't forget to leave them a comment or message saying "You're It!" and telling them to read your blog. You can't tag the person who tagged you. Since you can't tag me back, let me know when you've posted your blog so I can see your answers.
1. I have a bit of OCD...if my table cloth looks crooked it bugs me til I fix it
2. I am kind of a germaphobe, I hate it when people don't wash their hands after using the bathroom. I literally had to train my hubby to do it
3. Since I've been selling Avon I've been such a girlie girl with makeup, perfume, jewelry and it makes me feel better about myself too
4. I am an odd military wife, I don't mind when my husband goes to the field or has staff duty, I just look at it this way: I have a bed to myself and can do my own thing
5. I'm getting more into pen-pals, I have a couple of pen-pals that I send snail mail to every so often and I love it...I'm also a part of a group called "RAK 2008" which stands for Random Acts of Kindness. Check out the group, you might like it!
6. I love movies but I can't get the time to watch them when I want that is why I loove Netflix!
7. I have strong opinions and an outlook on life, I'm still trying to battle my anxiety and I will win sooner or later but for now I have to rely on people to drive me places which I HATE!
8. I hate relying on people for anything, I would rather help people or do something for someone then ask for anything.
9. I am addicted to Dance Dance Revolution
10. I would love to adopt a kid when mine get older I think that would be the best gift to give a child who feels "unwanted"
I'm not going to expect anyone to do this because I have tagged my friends to the point where they go "Crista, I hate you!" (but not really of course!)
But if you want to go ahead but lemme know so I can see your answers!

Late night TV
So I was online and had the TV on in the other room as a little background noise. I guess there was an infomercial on (gotta love those at midnight!) and all of the sudden the guy on there was talking about how we have a lot of fecal matter built up in our bodies...um WHAT? You know I had to go in the living room to see what he was talking about. I guess he is selling this product called "Almighty Cleanse"
I swear people sell some weird things on late at night, I wonder who really is up late at night wondering how they can buy some colon cleanse.
The picture I posted reminded me of the colon cleanse infomercial! I love The Nutty Professor!
I wonder if they have any late night infomercials on how to get fat sucked out of your stomach, that would be awesome!
