How To Make Choffy

Some of you non-coffee drinkers have been asking me how one goes about brewing Choffy so I decided the best way to tell you was to show you....

Here I am in all my grubby glory demonstrating one of the many ways to make a cup of pure yumminess. Enjoy!

And I love that I was trying to record in front of the clean, cute part of my kitchen and mostly what ended up standing out was my little red fire extinguisher. LOL!

You may have to wait a bit for it to load...





p.s. I'm still trying to figure out how to mesh together several clips with my Flip without them fading into one another so if some of my sentences get cut off it's because I thought it was just going to go from one clip to the next. Instead the Flip is trying to get all fancy on me....whatever....

CHOFFY Give-a-way Winners!

I'm so sorry this post was delayed a bit. I have way too many responsibilities for my own good sometimes so all the fun things like blog give-a-ways get pushed to the side, unfortunately.

In the future, I want to get better at this. I want to blog and be crafty like the pros in my blog list to the left <--- and be featured in the Artful Blogger magazine. Of course, I think they treat their blogs and Etsy stores more like full time jobs so they put the effort and time in and it shows. Although, I've noticed that most of them have only one child or none at all so I'm not so sure how well I will fair with 3 kids, another part-time job, a TM administration job and then the everyday busyness of life. I'd like to be blindly optomistic and tell myself, "Where there's a will, there's a way." But it might be more like "Where there's a will, one gets no sleep. Absolutely none, nada, niente. I get very little as it is. The thought of adding more to my work load makes me want to go to sleep.

Anyway, wish me luck with that! LOL! Right now, it is one of my biggest dreams. Just to create my own little world with magic items in my store that captivate and enchant, and a blog that helps create that world much like Emily does with The Black Apple blog, her fashiony blog and Etsy store or Vanessa with A Fanciful Twist.•*♥*•.

Okay...on to what you are here for! I had several entries for my CHOFFY give-a-way but now has come the time to announce the 3 winners.

Congrats to:

Angela
LaRica
and
Joanne

Each of you will be receiving a 2 oz. sample bag of CHOFFY! Email me back at feyavanya@pacbell.net with which flavor you would prefer and I will try to accomadate you.

Thanks so much for entering the give-a-way!

Next up tomorrow I will be posting a video of myself making CHOFFY in my french coffee press for those of you who have no idea how to brew a cup of coffee or CHOFFY. That way, once you order you will know exactly what to do. =)

Have a splendid weekend!

Fun with Underwear Hats

Like her older sister at this age, Ari is totally obsessed with Blue's Clues. She found some small Blue's Clues underwear I had been saving for that blessed day when she is finally potty trained. She started carrying about 4 or 5 pairs around the house and wearing them as fashion accessories.

We love underwear hats!





This is what happens when she goes through her spring/summer drawer. I have to admit she is very creative; shorts for a hat, a skirt made out of a shirt. She's got the gypsy look down.





The other day we were asking her, "Is Ari crazy?" to which she would reply, "just a little bit." =)





Also, those of you who are waiting on the edge of your seat to hear if you won my CHOFFY give-a-way, don't despair!! I know I said I would announce the winner last week, but there was something very exciting for TwilightMOMS I had to go down to LA for and this week I have been playing catch up. So announcing the winner got put on hold but I hope to be able to go through the entries and announce the 3 winners tonight or early tomorrow as well as post a video of me making CHOFFY so those of you non-coffee drinkers can see just how it's done.

And that exciting TwilightMOM thing is a secret for now but you all should find out on Saturday. ♥

Stay Tuned!
