Alright, gals. How'd we do?

Happy Birthday, Breana!

Just a shout out to our fellow W.I.N.E.-o Bre on her 29th birthday (the 16th). Yes, you read correctly. She's turning the BIG 2-9! Poor lass.... ;)

Whoop it up, girl, and strutt!

¡Estoy apagado a México!

Alright, ladies. I'm outta here! Well, in 16 hrs or so I am. Last chance for any LEGAL souvenir requests...

While away, I'll raise my glass to toast my good fortune for having stumbled upon such a fine group of gals.

Have a great week and I'll check in when I get back.

¡Adiós!

1 C salt
2 C flour
2 T oil
2 C water - add food coloring
4 t cream of tarter

cook over medium heat until consistency you want.

Welcome Ladies!

Becca has inspired a life changing movement and has a huge hand in inspiring this Blog. Think of it as our own little slice of internet nirvana. A place where we can swap "this and that's" on how we're managing our lives, where we're getting our free meats, who has the most cheese. And best of all, it's about supporting each other through the crazy times and cheering each other on to the finish lines. It's the best we can do without hiring our own group guru.

The name:

W= Women
I= In
N=Need of
E=Escape, Enlightenment, Enthusiasm, Energy, Exotensial experience, Erotica (well, sometimes it's true), Encouragement, Exercise....you get the picture.

Authors Needed/Wanted!
You have an idea you want to contribute? GREAT! Let me know and I'll add you as an author to the W.I.N.E. Blog! Write whatever you want, whenever you want.

Things to think about and what we can HOPE to create from this blog:

Grocery Budget Challenge
Think about your contribution to the menus, the spots to save, the best deal on milk, etc.

"Smart Women Don't Buy Stupid Stuff" Challenge
$50 a month...it's gonna be rough. Write your confessional. Words of encouragement. How do you get your "zen" on when you're on you last $5 and it's only the 10th of the month?


W.I.N.E. Events
"Girls' Swap Meet" info will be updated/posted here. Throwing a "Sex Accessory" Party and need a few friends to round out your group? Post it here! "Simply Dinners" events and rotation information found here.


Think about what else you'd like to find in a click of a mouse. This Blog is YOUR BLOG. Email me at jendarland@cox.net and let me know if you'd like to be added as an "author" or "team member". If not, feel free to send along any ideas and I'll post 'em up. Feel free to leave comments, as well. Music suggestions welcomed!

Peace out, girls.
