Fun Creative Date Ideas...Go Green!


Green always reminds me of spring because you can start to see a little bit of green grass trying to poke through the snow...in some places. Here in Minnesota we still have snow and will for a while so I try to bring it inside as much as possible. So collected here especially for you is my list of literal and figurative ways to bring more green into your life...while you're waiting for spring to arrive;


#1. Have a green breakfast. It could include green eggs and ham as well as green buttermilk pancakes. Also throw in some green kool-aid (or yummy green smoothie) and some key-lime yogurt.


#2. Plant some wheat grass. Grab some pots and some wheat from your nearest Whole Foods store and you're on your way! Throw in some soil and in a week you'll have a beautiful and tasty (okay not really, but it is great to add to your smoothies) home edition.


#3. Head out to the yard and pull some weeds and plant some flowers. You will end up with a green thumb, beautiful yard, and some nicely toned arms and back!


#4. Grab an extra recycling bin for your trash and make a commitment to fill it instead of your normal garbage this week. Seriously, you will be amazed at the extra space you have when you put literally EVERYTHING that can be recycled in the bin. Put up reminders all over the house.


#5. So I know it's a little cold still for some but what if you picked one day this next week to bike to work? You would feel awesome, look awesome (well probably not) and be doing awesome things for this earth! If not to work, how about to some place you usually drive that is pretty close by...the video store, the pharmacy, the gym. (Then you can cut your gym time in half!)

Dating Etiquette...The Need To Knows



I like to think we all pretty much know basic etiquette, but then I hear dating stories from friends and think 'who in the world are these people'?! So here are a few things you should remember when starting a relationship with someone, or if you're in a relationship, or you're married and want to shock your spouse...big time!

No swearing...it's super tacky. (Can I still use that word even if its not 1993?) Do not expect your date to be available on short notice and ask a few days in advance for a date. While on the date, guys should walk nearest the street on sidewalks. After the date if you promise to call, then call. Don't try more than twice to get a hold of your date...if they don't call back. there is a reason. If you're married, all the same rules apply. You don't necessarily need to call after each date, but it's nice. And it would probably make it less awkward in the morning when you both reach for the orange juice in your bathrobes!

Love is in The Air(port)



Say you are coming back from a vacation and you get stranded with your significant other in Dayton, Ohio. How do you keep things fun and interesting in an airport setting?

Well, since I got stranded in Dayton, Ohio last week I'm pretty much the queen of killing time in an airport. Here are a few things we did to make our time fun and memorable when everyone else in the world got to their destination (still a little bitter).

Head over to the bookstore- most airports have them-and relax with a good read. I started with the kids books to see if I needed any for the little ones but after like 15 kids books the lady in the store was starting to give me the eye so I had to leave.

We also checked out the gift shop. You'd be amazed at the goodies they stock in that Dayton Ohio airport! We saw shirts that said "Future Cow Tipper" for kids.

Cinnabon. You can smell it from a mile away, so you might as well grab it rather than having to hike back through the airport and buy it later. They have new mini's that pretty much changed my life!

People watch, the classic airport activity. It's fun to take turns making up stories about people or couples you see.

Finally, CNN. We set up camp beneath a tv playing CNN nonstop and honestly I learned way more about what is going on in the world than I probably should have. If you need to know what is going on in Libya, I'm your girl!

Whether you are stuck, stranded or staying in an airport by choice, make the most of your trip by creating fun memories!
