TrueBlood Season 2

lafayette_2521OK, as you know i was wrong about them killing Lafayette., none- the- less he is in a fucked up situation. I guess Eric was not playing when he said that he was going to get all those that have wronged a vampire. I don’t think it’s fair for Lafayette however due to the fact that him and his vampire lover were involved in a fair exchange. Sex for V. So will they turn him into a vampire?  I rather see him as a vampire than dead. Maryann flips out over her do boy (male maid)  for handing Tara and Eggs a towel when they didn’t need it. I can’t wait till we really get down to what the hell Maryann is all about i mean really. I was so happy that she told Tara’s mom about herself. I wonder if that bitch is going to relapse. But you know if she does Tara will be right there. You know sometimes people need to be left alone family or not because all they do is bring you down and keep you where they are. I know Tara loves her mom but I’m with Maryann, leave her to herself for a while and just do you. Did they not jack Ms. Jannet up? They ripped her heat out! Was she just in the wrong place at the wrong time or had she done something to a vampire? Either way i would like to know who did it. Jason is going to be a trip, and i do believer that these people are going to turn him inside out in a bad way in the end. Jason really needs to be a part of something and so i guess this is it. And thanks to sookie on behalf of their dead uncle that bill killed he can go on this retreat. The Bullshit is going to be amazing. Bill truly has his hands full with Jessica. She is going to cause a mess of trouble. And did you see how she sounded and looked when she found out that sookie is the reason for  her begin turned into a vampire! Sookie may not be as safe with her as she may think. (talking about a girls night out). It’s nice to see  Sookie and Bill hook up again. Oh to be Sookie! I would so do a Vampire. Their passion at least Bills passion as well as sookie’s is such a turn on. I guess after a while the fangs don’t bother you as much. I don’t know but it’s something about that. I thought it was a hot scene on Twilight when dude was sucking the poison out of his girlfriends arm and dude almost couldn’t stop it was something about that as well  damn. It’s a thin line between pleasure and pain and i like that and i think that’s what Vampires bring. So maybe that’s it. When i really figure it out i will let you know. But think about it would you be a fang banger? While you’re thinking about it don’t forget to tune into HBO to catch the second showing of the 2nd Season of TrueBlood i think it will be more exciting then the first.

The Jacksonville Foodfight

Saturday, June 13th, 2009 | Event Wrap Up | No Comments

pict4732OK This was my first time attending the Jacksonville Food Fight. I had some high expectations as far as food was concerned, and i was excited about how it would be set up and how i was going to feel once inside. When we walked in the music was on the smells were amazing and the people sounded wonderful, everyone seemed to be having a great time. It was great to go upstairs and see all the people and the different stations of foods. I mean there was so much food. There was of course your everyday cool spots like hooters, BJ’s and such you had some very good tapas;things you don’t eat everyday, Little but pack much Punch. You also had meatloaf sandwiches, sandwiches that had pulled pork with a lime dressing with a handmade slaw. I mean there were all kinds of venues. I even tried raw meat. OK but it was not too bad when i put some special green salad withit. Now i am one that likes to try all different kinds of food. I would try something once.  I would love to travel and taste stuff like bulls balls, LOL, and Lambs eyeballs, not to mention live squid, i mean it can’t get much better than that besides adding some meal worms and Crickets and lets not forget the ants lava  and ants that when roasted taste like nuts. What! I would be all over that. None the less they had some of the most beautiful cupcakes there, Chocolate fountains, White Chocolate fountains, rice dishes, I mean everything from A-Z and then some. The spirits were great. However, for me there was one that stood out the most and this was a simple margarita  now with this margarita he made it right there on the spot but he added another  liquor to the mix and that was the best thing i had tasted all night! It wasn’t too strong it was perfect! And guess what i have never like margaritas! but i feel in love with this one.That was a good ass margarita. Now i must admit as far as food nothing really made me say wow that was awesome there was nothing i went back twice to taste. I was very excited when i saw the crab cake factory there because i have never tried them on my outings, so to see them there was great because I had been talking about going there.I was a bit full but i just had to try these crab cakes i just knew my mouth was going to be happy. I was like what in the world is this. It was mushy it was just not appealing i ended up throwing it away and i felt bad because damn this is an event to bring awareness to hunger here in Jacksonville and providing for those that don’t have so i kinda felt bad about throwing it away, but i was so disappointed. However, I’m not going to hold it against them i will just have to go in and have a seat at the Crab Cake Factory and hopefully they will change my opinion. There were 2 floors of food and beverages. I also enjoyed the frozen drinks, they had pina colada and mango it was awesome. I was like the girl in pulp Fiction “I Said Got Damn” The cool thing about them is that you can have this delivered to your event and they will set you up and all you have to do is prove the alcohol. So i look forward to having this at our upcoming event. You will love it. So here are some pictures i took so that you could get a feel for who was there. I wish i could allow you to smell and taste what i did. I look forward to the 20th Annual FoodFight. I had a nice time. This is an event that you wouldn’t want to do alone even tho you can meet others i think it’s so much more fun with a friend but still mix and mingle. So if you didn’t get a ticket you need to make sure to get your tickets for the next one. It’s for a great cause and it also brings awareness to the fact that the food banks are seeing a rise in the amount of people coming to for help to feed themselves or their family and like i say there’s nothing stopping you or i  from begin in that position, and if that were the case you would hope to be able to get help to feed your family. So whenever possible give to the food banks and to others that are trying to help other people. Every little bit helps. So here are some of the pictures from the 19th Annual Jacksonville Foodfight!

Ladies Choice Wednesdays At The Ivy Ultra Bar

Saturday, June 13th, 2009 | Uncategorized | No Comments

I had not been to ladies night for a while so i decided to go this past Wednesday. The last time i told you about this event i was like it was an ok crowd there. This time when we went it was off the chain. There were way more people than before. I was happy to see that. The people wanted to party that night. They had a great mix of people there as well which is always a 10 in my book. I love a well diverse crowd. Q45 was spinning hits from back in the day making you say ahhh shoot! they also did a soul train circle and some people got up and were working it out. There was this old guy there and he was doing his thing. Even tho he was older he said shoot i got this, it was a joy to see him cut a rug the way he was doing and just enjoying life, drunk or not. This time i didn’t order a Apple Martini my husband doesn’t know what he gave me the first time because he told the bartender to just surprise me. It was a good drink so much so  that i wanted to order another one. The second drink was a sex on the beach and it was good too. I wanted to order another after that but i didn’t because after 2 drinks with me i am sick. I just can’t drink more than 2. My husband was there on business so he wasn’t much fun so i got my dance on with myself and this guy that was in town for just one night. I had a whole lot of fun dancing withhim. He said he was from California  and he wanted me to show him how the 904 does it so i did but it was all in fun. That night   was by far one of the best nights there and i think it’s really jumping off with the people so if you have not been to the Ivy Ultra Bar Ladies Night please stop in you will have a ball. This Wednesday it’s Hip Hop Vs. Dance Hall you know it’s going to be off the meter. Now by this begin my birthday week i have to wear something a bit more out there, but classy of course. The dance hall ladies are going to be doing it up for real. One of the Summer Bunnies will be hosting this event. Log on to that event and get all the details. June 19th is the date.

Sail Jacksonville

Saturday, June 13th, 2009 | Event Wrap Up | No Comments

pict4532The family headed out to Sail Jacksonville. Now for those of you that don’t know every year Jacksonville host Sail Jacksonville. Ships from all over including pirate ships dock on the river. There are Pirates walking around interacting with you officers of past i mean some of everything is walking around. It’s so cool to see what foods they ate doing this time how they prepared them things that they used in everyday life that’s so different from what we use now. The kids loved to see the pirates they took pictures with the people they acted the part. Jack Sparrow was even there and if you didn’t know any better you would think it was him. I mean his demeanor as well as the way he carried himself you really wanted to believe that was Jack. We missed the pirate fight. It was hot and a lot of people were out touring the ships. There were plenty of vendors of all sorts. The doggies even showed up. It was so hot that the  kids, adults and doggies alike were getting wet in the fountain, some even came in their swimsuits. I thought it was cool to be able to go down in the ships and really see the living quarters and get an ideal what it would be like on a ship for an extended period of time. It would suck because those damn ships were hot as hell. There was one ship that had ac on in one room, but the rest of those ships were just hot. I stopped getting on them and let the kids ride out with dad with the touring of the ships. They had a bounce house for the kids shaped like a pirate ship.There was this talented team (male & female) that was out the yard with their craft. I have some pictures of their work it was impressive. The kids were able to get up close and dig in the  sand and make sand castles as well free of charge. There were a few activities that you had to pay  There was only one jumping with business. They  had these glass bottles different shapes and sizes and you had to pay to put  colored sand inside. They were nice. I almost built one myself but quickly snapped back. I felt it was too much money. (10.00)  There was a balloon guy out there and of course he was a pirate. He also told pirate Jokes. Like what’s a pirate favorite letter? rrrrrr. I thought that was so funny! My husband was looking at me like i was stupid which made it even more hilarious! The kids were also allowed to go rock climbing and play with water boats remote control style. We had a fun time it was the heat that made us ready to leave. It takes a lot out of you. I must say that i am torn with which do i like more? pirates or vampires. There were some sexy pirates walking around RRRRR both male and female. I was thinking i would do a Pirate..There sexy attire and that look and confidence i love it. Esp when the pirate knows he looks good but not begin arrogant about it but having fun and enjoying folk. It’s hot.They were shooting off cannons and old guns it was cool and like i said the kids love it and Jacksonville has some serious pirate fans, i think i just became one. Here’s some of the pictures. Maybe next year i should explore my pirate side and put my best sexy pirate on. Oh, before i go let me tell you what happen. So like i keep saying the kids were all into it. We had been talking about this for days. Now we get there and the kids are seeing the pirates and there are kids dressed up as well that are a part of the venue. So my youngest 3 years old says look mommy at those pirates (speaking about the little kids he saw) this older person who was with this child comes up out of his mouth with they are not pirates they are people. I’m like no he didn’t. So i said my kids know they are people and weather or not they are pirates or not they have on costumes and the whole point of the event is really about using your imagination so for you to come out your mouth to a 3 year old about that is bullshit esp when you didn’t have the right intentions and tone. Now if you were on your job you would have educated my child in a positive way about what he really was seeing. So if you don’t have anything good to say shut the fuck up and let kids be kids. Don’t take it out on him because your fat ass is hot ass hell. I was pissed off. I hate when i loose my cool because i don’t often do so, but i thought he was wrong for the way he went about it. Maybe he was tired of hearing it i don’t know just be careful talking to mine. Outside of this person people were friendly. My youngest son had some ice cream and not looking where he was going ran into a guy taking pictures and got chocolate ice cream on the man white shorts in the crouch area, he thought that was funny as all day. It did look like something you would see on a tv show he took it all in good spirits. So here are the pictures i must say i had a ball taking pictures at this event. See photo gallery.
