So, I didn't even realize that today was my one year blog-iversary until someone asked the other day. I had to look it up and then I saw that Oct 30, 2007 was my first entry. (And I said 'fabulous' back then, too. hehehe) I would have thrown a party had I realized this earlier. Shoot, I'm at 411 posts...I could have thrown many parties ... one at 100th post, 200th post, 300th post and 400th post. Oh well, I'll make it up on my 500th post. How about that?
Since I didn't have a party, please, have a FREE COFFEE and a 15% off coupon on me at Barnes & Noble. I've seen this around the blogworld, so maybe you've already indulged yourself. If not, hurry up...it expires this Friday. Click HERE for the coupons.
Thank you all for the well wishes. I am feeling MUCH better now. Thankfully, the baby did not get sick. I thought she was starting to. Phewwww! I don't know why I keep getting sick so much lately. I'm definitely tired of it.
Let me get on with the deals then I'll post a yummy slow cooking recipe. I won't be fixing it today since I never got to the grocery store this week. Thank goodness for yummies in the freezer!

Eligible for FREE Super Saver Shipping
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed tomato soup
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 pounds pork spareribs
1 teaspoon cornstarch (optional)
1/4 cup cold water (optional)
DIRECTIONS
Place ribs in a large stock pot, and cover with water. Bring to a boil, and cook for 15 minutes.
In a mixing bowl, mix together soup, onion, garlic, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Remove ribs from water, and transfer to a slow cooker. Pour sauce over ribs.
Cover, and cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours, or until ribs are tender.

Happy Blog Birthday! I'm so glad you are here in this bloggy world. These deals are always fantastic and I'm super excited to use the Barnes and Noble coffee coupon. Hubby and I visit often as a pseudo-date. And today is my slow cooker day too! It's chili for dinner tonight.
As for my thoughts...they are consumed by Christmas music since it's so unseasonably cold here today!
I am playin' hookey this am...Was supposed to go to the dentist, but they canceled. So I'm takin' my time going to work :D. A showers on my mind right now hehe.

Thanks for stopping by my blog last night. :)
Oh, the election and Halloween are whats on my mind...busy busy busy!
It's Fun to be One!!!! Congrats!
Mmmmm ribs tonight anyone?
On my mind today, since the holiday season is officially upon us, is how I'm going to make it through the next few months without gaining weight even though I'm trying to lose it!
♥ Whats on my mind?
I seriously have so much unpacking to do and yet I'm online cause I really don't want to do it! Terrible I know! :)
I can't wait until I can really cook again to try these slow cooker recipes. Any raw meat still does me in.
On my mind: Why is my stomach feeling so crampy? How can I convince my daughter to change out of her Halloween costume after their parade at school tomorrow? How can I make my HS basketball team be a little more peppy... I like laid back, but not so much on the court :) Also on my mind: can't wait until the weekend bc my husband will be off and I can get some extra sleep!
Happy Blogiversary! Not much is on my mind today--just thinking about how I really want to finish New Moon so I can move on to the next book in the Twilight series. I wonder if my boss would mind reading at work...hmmm....
Happy Anniversary!
What's on my mind is the huge fundraiser I'm chairing is this Saturday. The three tents still not put away and the two gift baskets I need to get done.....today!
Happy 1 year blog-iversary!!!
On my mind today, I'm happy it's my 1 month blogging and it's been so good LOL :)
Congratulations on your Blogiversary!! What a great accomplishment!!
Happy Blogiversary!
On my mind today: Just realized how close to Thanksgiving we are and how far I am from the family who usually cooks the turkey. I can't cook a turkey to save my life! Must find a good, cheap way for me not to cook the turkey yet still indulge the Mr and the monkey in a Thanksgiving dinner.
Happy Blogversary! That's awesome! I love your blog...I can't believe you've been around for a year and I've only found you recently. Thank you to the SITS-tahood!
:-)
You read my mind! Tomorrow I will be cooking Ribs in the crock for the first time. How did you know? And how did you know I would need a recipe! Wow!
Happy 1 year!
Yea! Congrats on 1 year of a very successful blog! You Rock!!
Happy Blogiversary :)
That recipe looks SO good....thank you for sharing :)
More toys to trip over is right!
There are so many good deals today! Thanks for rounding them up.
What's on my mind today is why my child thinks everything I say is optional!
Happy Blog-iversary! :)
Happy Anniversary, Happy Anniversary... wow, a whole year... that is awesome.... HMMM... what is on my mind today... well, honestly I am trying to figure out how to get everything done that needs to get done... I make things too hard sometimes...that is my curse!!!
Happy Blogiversary to you!!!
Happy Anniversary! The ribs look great!

Happy Blogversary! What's on my mind today?.....why can't my brother do ANYTHING by himself....He's 22 and always needs someone to with him to do things, it's just weird to me I guess.

Happy Blogiversary!
I've never fixed spare ribs. Those look easy!
QOTD - I'm going out of town tomorrow, so I've just got a little checklist going on.
yes you can post that, LOL I don't mind
Happy bloggeversarey (Yeah, I botched that spelling). I am going to get some of that coffee tomorrow. You know how I love coffee.
Hey so happy that you hit your anniversary. That is really an accomplishment and one that I have no idea when it is up....need to pay more attention.
Answer to your question of the day for me is "how can one nose produce so much gunk!?" Also suffering from a cold and wish that I could just die somewhere.
Happy Halloween!!!
That recipe looks good.
On my mind today... Halloween preparations, upcoming mortgage payment, meeting with my attorney tomorrow, hoping Katie is better behaved tomorrow, sex with my hubby(amazing, right?), messy house, and blogging.
Oh, and Happy Blogiversary!
Happy Birthday http://penniesinmypocket.blogspot.com/ !!!
