There are days, and then there are days! This light switch replacement kit from Think Geek just cracks me up! Whether you have it in your office, or office conference room, or a room in your home, it will be a conversation piece! It just might make you feel better when you are stressed out too! There are so many fun things on thinkgeek.com that you can buy for yourself or as a gift, but this one just made me smile today! Because, there are days . . .

If you want to make your friends have a little laugh, or think you are crazy, or cheer someone up who is having a bad day, I suggest you get the free Tom’s Messenger app. One of my friends sent me a text message last week using this app, which cracked me up, so I immediately downloaded it, and sent messages out to my friends and family, which cracked them up. Everyone needs a laugh at least once a day, right?

Tom the cat and Ben the dog are free. There are others you can add if you want, but they aren’t free. Tom is hysterical enough. I tried Ben but he’s voice is a little deep and makes me sound kind of scary. You press record, and your message is recorded in a funny version of your voice, with an animated animal delivering the message. You can send the message via text, gmail, or Facebook. You can also pick from backgrounds that are included in the app, or take your own background shot, which is what I did.

So, add this to your app library and make someone’s day today!

Sally-Gally needs her own cooking show, don’t you think? Here’s another great recipe she hasn’t made for me, but I saw it in a picture she took of a gathering at her house and it looked so yummy I had to have the recipe!

Easy as that! It is sooooooo yummy with cucumber slices or carrot slices as ‘chips’. Also mini carrots, celery, etc.  Of course with pita chips it is delish but the veggies are really good too.

Have any of you tried making kale chips? I bet it would be good with that too. I’ve tried kale, I’m not a fan, but everyone seems to rave about kale chips. So make some, with the hummus, and come over. I’ll make you some iced tea or something to go with it.
