#BB17 - Vanessa Wins Another HOH, Offers Johnny Mac Safety - Time to Flip the House?? #TotemPole #ChinaWholesale!




Well, here they go again - James and Meg, back to their Nomination Seats on The Block... was so difficult to figure out whether Vanessa, who won yet another HOH, would put James and Meg up, this week, since we all know Vanessa wants to Flip the House...

Flip - the - House, Flip - the - House!

  Two Wheel and Single Wheel Electric Scooters - your life is about to change, baby!! Oh, yeah!


 Aaah, yeah, baby, check it, check it!  Have you seen these around town, yet? Omg, are soooo cool!  How cool, you say?  Waaay cool, me says! You balance on it, yourself, sooo amazing!!! ErmahGaawd, I'm soo excited!! I opened up my email, this morning, and there it was!! From my favourite site, DHgate - love them, have bought sooo many amazing things from them... THE most beautiful white coat, love it, jewelry (mmm, maybe a LOT o' da jewelry! lol!)...oh my goodness, you could spend days looking through everything - or longer... their prices are so low, that you could resell them on your own, if you were so inclined (I thought about that, then kept everything, gave it out as gifts....)  I'm so excited!! lol! Oh, man, we are a'gonna have soo much fun, shopping!  : )


Ha! That makes me laugh... it's time for the #Twinstin to come to an end... they're been ruling the roost for too long, and Vanessa is clearly at the bottom of the Twinstin Totem Pole (Which I would looove to see, carved - hahahaah! I love Totem Poles!)

Well, on the off-chance that you might live somewhere where you haven't seen any Totem Poles, and since the #BBhouseguests are always talking about who is on the 'bottom of the Totem Pole', here they are! I was a'gonna choose one picture of a Totem Pole for you, then I just couldn't stop - I love them all! lol!


Aaawww, one of my favourite places, is soo gorgeous!  This is the Totem Pole in front of our Parliament Buildings, in Victoria, BC, Canada, all lit up, at night.

See why we love it??  : )  Looks like a Fairy /Tale, right?  

Perfect for me! I love living in a Fairy Tale - lol! 


And here it is in the day time... the Parliament Buildings in downtown Victoria, BC, Canada, overlooking the Victoria Harbour - soo pretty! 

See the Totem Pole? 

We honour all our cultures, in Canada, and especially honour our First Nations Peoples, as it should be.


I'm sure this must be the Totem Poles at Butchart Gardens, just outside of Victoria, BC, Canada.  we always get our Season Passes for Butchart Gardens - is stunningly gorgeous, all year round. 

ed2go     ed2go Course Catalog





Totem Pole on Vancouver Island, BC (where we live! Yippee!!)

Wow, look at that view, right?  Note the details on the Totem Poles - amazing.


Also, Canada, now 25% off Everything - bah'hahahaah! (Because our Canadian dollar is so low...lol!)

Is a good time for a trip! : )



(Hmmm... my font is all different... hope it looks okay for you to read it - lol!)





Aaawww, James loves Meg soo much, but it's clearly just a friendship, and it iiiis $500,000 at stake, here, sooo, hmmm.  Hmm. I'm sure James will make the right strategic decisions, James is so smart.

I did really want to see Vanessa, James and Johnny Mac going to the end, Final Three, but you never know where things are gonna go in the Big Brother house, right?  Always Expect the Unexpected.


Mah' Tweets from #BB17, tonight - lol! 


#BB17 Is James getting tired of carrying Meg? Meg and Julia easily drop out of the #HOH comp, assume they'll be fine
What a cool HOH comp, right? I loved this pic... pretty elaborate set up for a competition, fo' sho'!
So, the key was to keep their feet on the disc - yikes, looked so painful for Liz!

And then Johnny Mac and Vanessa were the last Houseguests 'standing', if you will, and Vanessa offered Johnny Mac a deal, to keep him safe for the week, if he wanted to drop, and it looked like he HAD taken the deal, then it turned out he had just fallen? Anyway, very good that Vanessa wants to work with Johnny Mac, and they should all have been listening to that exchange, right? (Wow, another type of font?? lol!)
#BB17 Wow, so #Vanessa promised #JohnnyMac safety, AND, she wants to #FlipTheHouse - finally!

Now Vanessa is super happy to have won another HOH, so she could get another letter from her girlfriend, Mel - that's so sweet : ) And it sounds like Mel is Canadian, from Montreal, because Vanessa had said something, on Big Brother After Dark, about Mel having to go back to Montreal for her 6 month Visa?

For the record, it's relay hard for Canadians to live and work in America, now - booo! I hope they make some positive changes in their Immigration Policies, for Legal Immigration to the States - right now, the focus appears to be on the massive amount of Illegal Immigration, which is a serious problem... I have a different perspective, of course, because I lived and worked in California for years, and loved it (and would love to go back! lol!), and it does frustrate me that so many people just stroll on over the Border, when little Canadians are happy to go through the Legal Route to live and work in the US. Anyway, that's my deal - lol!

#BB17 Meg complains about how hard the HOH comp was, and she dropped out, oh, a couple minutes in - #lol #HelloFloata'

#BB17 Liz says, "I'm not stupid" - uh, as soon as you've uttered those words, you might be stooopid #lol

James is soo funny! Look how hard James makes Julia laugh - now, that seems like more of a connection than James has with Meg, right? Hmmm... as James loves to say : )

#BB17 James, "My butt cheeks are puckered right now" hahaha! #JamesIsFunny Final 3: Vanessa, James & Johnny Mac? #hmm


#BB17 Did Austin just barely miss Vanessa when he was doing his fancy gymnastics in the living room #6yearoldstyle?



You know what just occurred to me?  Kathy Griffin is a great friend to Big Brother, right, and Michael McDonald is a great friend to Kathy Griffin, sooo, wouldn't it be hiiilarious if Michael McDonald came int the Big Brother House as his character, Stuart, and imitated Austin, doing those hilarious kicks and gymnastics around the BB living room? Omg, I would laugh so hard! 

Oh, @CBSBigBrother, wonder if we could make that happen, give your Big Brother Fans a wee treat and a lot of laughs! lol! 

Makes me laugh so hard!
All I could think of when Austin was doing his gymnastics in the Living Room, and barely missed Vanessa's face when he was kicking around, was Michael McDonald's character Stuart from MAD TV - remember that? hahahaha! Here's a little link for you - have an extra laugh, today - lol!
Three Funny Videos - you'll laugh so hard, and a very exciting surprise on the second link, especially if you love Key and Peele : )
Video 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhocikvhP1w
Aaahhh, here's a 'Big Brother' one - lol! 
Video 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-sc5MZZMio
Video 3: And check out these legs - you'll laugh! lol! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yf895R123o

All that, just from that one crazy little scene on Big Brother, tonight, with Austin in the living room, jumpin' about - hahahaaha!

#BB17 #GrandmaMeg James will be back in an hour for her #spongebath #hahaha! Laundry on a board #ha! #JamesIsFunny!

#BB17 They go up to see Vanessa's HOH room, James isn't there 4 the arts and crafts, he wants to see pics of Vanessa's Mom #HotMom! So funny!

Wow, Vanessa's Mom is so pretty - so that's where Vanessa gets her looks from! 
No wonder James wants to pop up to Vanessa's HOH room, check out her pictures! lol! : )

#BB17 @ZingbotOfficial - hahaha! Austin has to take his glasses off to ask Liz to be his gf - 2nd gf #lol!
Austin tries to lock that down - hahaha!
Liz immediately calls him out on having a gf outside of the BBhouse - ha!
Liz is laughing so hard, because she's about to win herself a half a million dollars - lol!

#BB17 #Nominations Vanessa puts Meg and James on the Block, Meg says, what'll happen to my game if James leaves? #Game?

#BB17 James is such a good player, he could easily win the Veto, Vanessa could backdoor a Big Player... #FlipTheHouse


Oh, and in case your Birthday is right now, or coming up, soon, or you know a Virgo - this is so funny! I didn't catch her name.. and I looked pretty hard (well, you know, I looked relatively hard - lol!) for her name, but she's soo funny, so i want to know it, right? If you know her name, let me know, please! : )


Omg, this is so funny - for all mah' Virgo Friends : > We’ve got 99 problems, and being a Virgo is one https://youtu.be/cOYH5MZCAJg  via @YouTube

#Bacon! Crispy Bacon on Parchment Paper #BaconBaconBacon! #Yum! #CookBaconInTheOven #Paleo #Uber #Eggs! #BaconAndEggs



Night Breakfast 

 (or, really, any time you feel like having Bacon and Eggs! lol!)


We love a good Night Breakfast - usually happens when I remember we still have Bacon in the fridge, and we can't figure out a morning when we'll have time to make it for regular Breakfast - lol! 

But if you're a parent, and you feel like having Bacon, Eggs and Toast for dinner, or anything else 'breakfast-related', just call it Night Breakfast, and the kids will love it! All very exciting - lol! 
Sometimes, you just run out of space on your grill (I got this grill for $17.99, so, grills are not expensive, any more, if you've been thinking of getting yourself a nice new grill - Grills, not just for your teeth, any more... haha! ; )

 But I digress (whaaat? That's never happened before... what, is happening again, right now? lol!) 

 Anyway, when you run out of room for more bacon, on your grill, put your kitchen scissors to good use, cut the strips in half, they'll fit, all right - you'll make them fit! haha! 

 And 'kitchen scissors' are any scissors at all, you're just gonna wash them like you would any cutlery... and you can cut all sorts of meat, veggies - you'll be surprised how useful scissors can be in the kitchen : ) 

Basted - sounds like something Matt Damon might utter under his breath to Jimmy Kimmel - bah'hahaha! (Use your best Boston Accent, when you say 'Basted' - so silly! : )
And to make the perfect Sunny Side Up, Basted, Fried Eggs, start with a little pad of butter, let that melt, add in however many eggs you want - I like this smaller pan, they're deeper, and cook better than in the giant pan - FYI - lol!) (I have other acronyms that we can save for later - lol!) 
I cook the Fried Eggs over High Heat, and pour some water along the sides - no burning, the water will baste the eggs, then you won't get that yucky 'uncooked' stuff on the top, which me no likes - haha! Yick! So, that water trick solves that problemo! : )

Pour in the water, put the lid on, pop your Toast down, and put the bacon on a plate - all done! Yum!

And no worries about eating eggs - eggs are soo good for you (the yolks, too - no yolking! lol!), jam packed full of nutrients, so healthy - let go of any old information - well, go back to the days of when everyone just knew that eggs were good for them, and we'll all be fine - everything in moderation (except your very favorite things - bah'hahaha!)... : )

 Crispy Bacon on Parchment Paper #Delicious! #Bacon

No splatters, easy clean up, no mess, just delicious and perfect crispy Bacon! lol! Yum!

I love all the diets that say you can have all the #Bacon and #WhippedCream you want - that's perfect, so, #NoChanges, then? 




Yahooo, this is THE easiest way to make delicious, crispy, bacon - yum! 

Oh, yeah, Baby, you can 'Believe' in Parchment Paper - all your baking will be better! Cookies, Shortbread (!), Banana Bread, Shrimp, Corn Dogs ...BACON... anything you want crispy and deeeelish!

Ooh, and Parchment Paper is fabulous for cooking your Puff Pastry, for desserts or for delicious Steak Pie! Yum! (See how much we love our lives?? Eat Well, Live Well, Be Happy! lol!)

I love cooking with Parchment Paper, and only discovered it in my 30's, from a friend (sounds like something else, but this is totally about Parchment Paper - lol!). Parchment Paper will change the way you bake, forever... and it'll make food you might normally fry (I haven't fried anything in years..), and now you can bake it on the Parchment Paper, will be crispy, delicious, waaay less fat, and much better for you, so you still get all your favourite treats, just a healthier version of them, and no more burning - I don't even think you CAN burn anything on Parchment Paper - hahaha!  Is THE coolest product for cooking! : )

You can pick up Parchment Paper at your local Dollar Store - you can get it at the regular grocery store, but it's always around $3.67 at the regular store, $1.00 to $1.50 at the Dollar Store, and, you know how I feel about wasting money - nooo, that's good Beer money! Or Chocolate money - wouldn't it be hilarious to set aside a part of your budget specifically for chocolate?  bah'hahahahaha! Noo, me joke (a little! lol!)... I just want you to be careful with your money, save where you can : ) 

  So, just turn on the oven to 350, put a good size piece of Parchment Paper on two cookie trays (me assume you will be cooking the whole package of bacon - lol!)

Lay out the strips of Bacon so they each have their own little space... I needed the extra cookie baking sheet/pan for the rest of the Bacon.

(See how Bacon is capitalized? lol!  Because we love and respect the Bacon - bah'hahahahaha!)


  So, at this point, the Bacon has been in the oven, you're off doing whatever, for about 10 to 15 minutes... don't time it, it's prolly the weekend, when you're makin' da Bacon, right? lol! Just go check it, every so often, take it out and turn it.



 Just keep taking it out and turning it over, until it's just as crispy as you like it - we love our Bacon really nice and crispy, where you can't 'taste' the fat - yick, fat... it'll cook away, and be better for you, anyway, and be waaay more delicious... annoying when someone serves you Bacon that isn't quite done, yet (you don't say no to the Bacon, you just complain about it on the way home - hahahaha!)

Szul.com   Suh'weeeet Deals fo' you! Lol! : )

20% Off Site-Wide Labor Day Preview Coupon - Use Code: LD20 - Valid thru Friday, September 4th

  To every season...turn, turn... haha!


 Keep turnin' 'til it's perfect! 


And there you go!  Perfect Bacon, every time - and clean up is a breeze - just toss out the Parchment Paper, a quick soapy clean up of the pans... easy schmeasy, and super delicious!

We just kept making little plates of Bacon like this, because the Bacon on the bottom shelf in the oven, that was spaced further apart, cooked really quickly, and the Bacon on the top shelf of the oven, that was jam packed with Bacon, that one cooked more slowly...so, maybe space the out a bit more, if you're in a hurry? (To get more Bacon?? lol!)

I like to cook anything from the freezer section, like Butterfly Shrimp, Corn Dogs, anything you want crispy, not fried, but tastes like it's fried, you can cook on Parchment Paper.

and I put Parchment Paper on the bottom of the pan for Banana Bread, Shortbread (yum!) (Now me needs some Shortbread! Yum!!).... stuff like that - prevents anything from burning - is an amazing little product!

Okay, 'til we Bacon again... lol! Happy Meals, Happy Life!  Ailsa : ) 

Here's my guess... if you love your Bacon (with a Capital 'B' - haha!), you might also like to give yourself a really super-extra-special treat, say, once a month....! Ha! Is my Dream Gift!! lol!



Omg, can you imagine getting a fancy gift, every month?? Best Gift, Evah'!!

You balance on it, yourself, sooo amazing!!! ErmahGaawd, I'm soo excited!! I opened up my email, this morning, and there it was!!
