It’s back… another mundane Monday paired with my Miscellany Monday!  Hope you all had a lovely weekend!  Mine was spent with old and new friends and just went by wayyy too fast.  And now, here’s a bit of my random silliness for you.  Thanks again for letting me link up to Miscellany Monday, Carissa!

Miscellany Monday @ lowercase letters

(1) If you are lactose intolerant (like my husband) and sick of plain ole lactose free milk, try almond milk – it’s delish, nutty, full of antioxidants and calcium.  Even lactose tolerant people (me), like it!

(2) Wizards of Waverly place is hands down the best TV show on the Disney Channel.  Trust me, I know, our TV was tuned to that channel all day yesterday.  Yes, I like TV that a tweenage girl would like.

(3) If you drink a shot of Happy Sake, otherwise known as a Quail Egg Shooter (which contains sake, quail egg, masago and green onion)…

You may either be baffled or shocked by the taste.  Actually, it went down quite smoothly.

(4) My husband is THE BEST Target bargain shopper ever.  He just bought us a Liberty of London lampshade for $4.48 and three Liberty of London picture frames for $2.48 each.  Now he just needs to find me those nude pumps I want!

(5) Had a really fun girl’s weekend celebrating Roanna’s bachelorette party!  It was a weekend full of eating, partying, laughing, gossiping, and celebrating!  Here’s a few pictures of us all dolled up!  :)

Note to bar/club owners: If it is a hot summer night and your bar/club is bumping enough to be packed with people, PLEASE crank up the A/C so that people don’t sweat from just standing still.  Nothing worse than someone else’s sweaty body dancing up against you while her sweaty hair whips back and forth…

(6) My new favorite song is “California Gurls” by Katy Perry.  Yes, I like music that a teenage girl would like.

(7) This is my 102nd post.  You’ve still got 4 more days to enter my 100th post GIVEAWAY!

    you look super cute dear..! ;-) ‘california gurls’ has also grown on me a lot.. it’ such an upbeat song that i can’t get out of my head, especially since they play it here all the time! :)

    If I had the Disney Channel I would be watching it all the time. I love those tv shows. I’m still pretty much a teen with so many things that I do. Looks like a fun bachelorette party! x

    Almond milk is really good. I am lactose intolerant, and totally love almond so it is perfect for me. Great shopping by your husband at Target! Does he do the shop the endcaps thing? Maybe I will get my Father’s Day cards at Target and just kinda take a quick? walk around the store :)

    I saw that serie like 2 times and I don’t like it at all. So silly and for kids xD

    You look gorgeous on that picture. I’m glad you had fun, but I’m agree with you, the A/C don’t make any bad if people are sweating inside out.

    And I love that song too, so fun and happy :D

    Love!

    You ladies look amazing! That quail-egg sake drink looks, um, unappetizing but, I’ll take your word for the taste of it! I think my kiddo would challenge your take on ‘best tv show on Disney channel’. Haha! To my kid, it’s probably the Mickey Mouse clubhouse or the Imagination Movers! lol. Have a great Monday.

    Fun! I love going to bachelorette parties! The best one I went to was in Panama City! I don’t know if I could have drank that shot…a little “raw” for my liking!

    Ah.. I still need nude pumps, too!

    Oh geez. Yeah, I hate being around sweaty people around bars! It’s not just the sweat that gets to you… it’s the way they smell after a whole night of dancing! They really should crank up the A/C.

    You look cute! :)

    Almond Milk is delicious and oh so healthy. :) LOVE it. It tastes so nutty but still like milk.

    My daughter loves Hannah Montana and would probably fight you on the fact that Wizards is the best. haha

    I got your link from Monday Miscellany! I’m now following you and hope you can stop by my blog and read my Monday Miscellany too!

    I love Katy Perry, and I need to listen to that song.

    And the Quail egg shooter, strange but very interesting. Don’t think I’d do it myself. Mainly because I don’t like sake.

    You are so darn cute! :) Happy Sake..you are a brave brave woman! I’m half Japanese and I don’t think I’ve ever had sake… nope..not yet!
