Our "Passion Play Practice" ( for Lent ) has been going well so far. I'm really looking forward to doing it again this year. Jake and I have been in it for 3 years now and even though its only 45 minutes long and preformed in a tiny church, I love it more and more each time I do it :)
This time I'm going as Mary. Jake's playing Jesus, like he did last year....we thought it was kinda funny......ME....playing his Mom. "hardy-har-har" ;)
Here's the slideshow from last year's "Passion Play"...hopefully we'll get another one done for this year and I can post that for ya too :D

Dun-da,da,da,da,ta,taaaaaa!!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! It looks so awesome! I can't wait! Tell those producers to hurry it up!!!
I heard that there's actually going to be two parts to the Hobbit. The first is "The Hobbit - An Unexpected Journey"....the second; "The Hobbit - There and back Again". Obviously, despite my superhuman cyberspace tracking skills, I haven't found a trailer for the second one yet. :)
The casting is just perfect. A self-evident truth/fact.
I love the costumes! Gold chains, leather, fur, its all so realistic to my imagination!!!!
And get this, they've actually BUILT REAL HOBBIT HOUSES in NewZealand for this movie! Real stone, wood, paint, door with one doorknob, the works! (Said they intend to leave it there after the movies are finished for the public to enjoy!!!!! AAAHHH! So COOL!

Vinegar
A few days ago, my Mom and I were talking about....well...I don't really remember what we were talking about, exactly. All I DO know is that somehow VINEGAR found it's way into the subject. From there we talked about how we could use it to make house cleaner and other products, instead of just always buying Windex. Then I got to thinking (aloud, actually ;) what IS Vinegar anyway? Well, we called Grandma (she literally has a book on Vinegar!) and she gave us the answer:
***********************************
So....Vinegar is a little more complicated than you thought, hu? ....Me too.
They tell you that it's actually REALLY healthy to consume at least 3 table-spoons of Vinegar a day; that it cleans out your system.
That's just not right...........I guess Vinegar is just another version of that medicine to cure all ailments like they had in the medieval days............VINEGAR: Good for Windex, cleaning oven tops, scrubbing toilets, wiping counters, cleaning knobs, shining handles, wiping floors.........drinking.
Sure........why not drink something you scrub your toilet with? Why not?!
(Is it just me, or can someone tell me that that is totally messed up?!)
Go ahead, everyone...go take your dose of fermented acid for the day!
A variety of flavoured vinegars on sale in France (bottom rows)
Vinegar is a liquid substance consisting mainly of acetic acid and water, the acetic acid being produced through the fermentation of ethanol by acetic acid bacteria.[1] It is today mainly used in the kitchen, but historically, as the most easily available mild acid, it had a great variety of industrial, medical, and domestic uses. Commercial vinegar is produced either by fast or slow fermentation processes. In general, slow methods are used with traditional vinegars, and fermentation proceeds slowly over the course of weeks or months. The longer fermentation period allows for the accumulation of a nontoxic slime composed of acetic acid bacteria. Fast methods add mother of vinegar (i.e., bacterial culture) to the source liquid before adding air using a venturi pump system or a turbine to promote oxygenation to obtain the fastest fermentation. In fast production processes, vinegar may be produced in a period ranging from 20 hours to three days.

Update
So things have been a little hectic around here, lately...
My week has been jammed up with visits, driving around, church activities, and planning for school...
The good thing is, I get to have Tacos today and then jump on a trampoline tomorrow :):)
I've been drawing a reading whenever I have free time; along with playing Mario and Gunmayhem so that's always fun. :P
My doggies are getting cuter every day. Every time I go up to feed them I always get a big kick out of those floppy ears and big pitiful eyes! Lol ~
Our Valentines Day was fun; got lotsa' candy, "Heh-heh".
Anyhoo...I'm still working on getting my driver's permit. I have to go get a physical first, on March 5th, and then take it from there. (The last time I got a full check-up, I was, like.......11. LOL)
Welp...gotta go get that Taco-Dip goin'!
Later ~ xo

Go Girls!
Heard this on the radio today :)
Women are:
1.) Better Police-men (women...lol) because -
Women are proven to be more trustworthy, and are less likely to rely solely on brute force; more on brain-work and mental success.
2.) Able to width stand more pain because -
Science proves that their brains are capable of breaching out more space for endurance.
(When tested to put a hand in icy-water, women were able to stand it 19% longer then men!)
3.) Better drivers because -
They are more careful.
(Men are 70% more likely to die in a car-crash and/or to cause one than women!)
4.) Able to handle a bad relationship better than men because -
When women are upset, they usually cry it off and seek assistance from friends or family, while men simply hold the "pain", casting it aside in denial, and will not turn to others for help.
GO GIRLS! LOL

This Year's Game
That game last night was AWESOME! 21-17! What competition!
GO GIANTS!!!
Eli Manning was totally amazing the entire time (save one short pass), especially at the very end of the last quarter.
I loved how when the Giants scored their last and winning touchdown, the player (# 44 ) actually took the time to turn and sat down in the endzone!!! LOL! Awesome! >>>
And how about that catch??!!!Phenomenal!!! That's going down through foot-ball history! >>>
Anyway, that was probably one of the best Super-Bowls I've ever watched......even if the Steelers didn't make it there this year....... (See? I can be a good looser :)
