Kalabunga Dude

Ok, I don't even know how to explain this resort where our trade show is being held.

It's called Kalahari Resort. You need to check it out: www.kalahariresorts.com.



There is a water park indoors, one outdoors, the largest movie theater I've ever seen, a theme park inside and outside, and lots of other crazy things.

I'm stuck in the ballroom for the agriculture trade show.

BUT. I am totally treating myself to a message at the spa downstairs tomorrow night. 

OH HAYYYYY!

My boss always takes us to these trade shows at cool places- last time on Michigan Ave, now here and there's an outlet mall across the street, and next place has an Ikea across the street. 

Why am I working!?

Sheesh. You should check out this place. It's hysterical. It's like a cruise ship without the water and boat. There are kids running around the place in bathing suits.



Oh yeah, and I'm Wisconsin.

So random.

I'll share more tomorrow!

New Favorite Song.

Check it out. This is where I live. It is no SC, but this song pretty much sums up the beauty of the Midwest. 

Enjoy. Happy Hump Day!


Fly Over States, Jason Aldean.

Headed to the Cheese State

Tomorrow I head to Wisconsin for work until Friday.




I'm sure I will be too tired to blog at the end of the day. Hope you won't miss my ramblings too much!

Off to the land of cheese! Hopefully I'll get to sample some? Ha, OR go to the spa at our cool hotel with the waterpark inside. So random, but could be so fun!

Weekend Recipes

I had lots of time this weekend to cook and fulfill that sweet craving I was having last week! 

Friday night I made my favorite chicken, broccoli, and cheese casserole that I found here! It makes SO much so we have been eating it for 3 days. So delicious, but it takes a while to put together.

I also made weight watchers cheesecake squares goodies. I think I somehow messed up the recipe. It said to bake the cookies for 20 minutes but it got close to an hour because I couldn't harden the cream cheese. Even though the edges were very cripsy, Tyler and I enjoyed them all weekend!

Tonight, we made a couple of other things!

spicy quinoa stuffed peppers were TyTy's idea! I'm not really a pepper person, so I just ate the stuffing! You can find the recipe at Christie's Corner. They made sooo much. 





My dish to make tonight was greek orzo pasta! After I went to Greece 2 years ago, I really developed a love for Greek food, especially the salad and pasta! I found the recipe at  Centsational Girl. I left out the pine nuts. 




What a fun weekend of trying new recipes and relaxing! Have a great week!
