There is currently a coupon out for $1 off 3 cans, which takes your total to 50c for 3 cans, or approximately 16c per can.

Cake Mate Easy Squeeze Decorating Icing
We had a birthday here recently, and I decided to try my hand at making the cake myself. I've never really experimented with baking much, especially things like cakes and cookies and the like, so I stuck with a boxed strawberry cake mix for the cake part.
The icing and frosting is where it got really fun. I made a cream cheese frosting by creaming together about 1/4 cup butter and 1 8oz package of softened cream cheese, added 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, then slowly mixed in 1 cup confectioner's sugar. It was really simple and easy, and tasted great.
Since the party was in a Hello Kitty theme, namely pink explosion, I decided to get some pink icing to try my hand at decorating my cake. I've never tried it before, and was pretty nervous. I picked up a bottle of Cake Mate Pink Easy Squeeze icing and hoped for the best.
I baked my cake, frosted it, and then had to run back to the store to try and find decorating tips. I had assumed it would come with at least the design so I could write on the cake, however it did not. After finding the tips and finally getting down to icing the cake it was a hassle to squeeze the icing out of the container and the writing really suffered for it. Also, after the icing had set on the cake it didn't stay connected to the frosting and would fall off the cake or split away from itself for a small design I did on the edge of the cake.
All in all I would give the product a mediocre rating, but might pick it up again to try just in case the problems with the use of icing was related to my first try and not the actual product.

New Moon
I must say I've held out for a really long time on jumping on the Twilight bandwagon. Not that I wasn't interested in reading the books, or seeing the movies after I've read them, but it just wasn't time for me to get into them until now. I really probably would have sat on reading them for awhile yet actually, but the movies were starting to get into the last books and I didn't want to see something in a preview to ruin the experience of the book.
So here I am, after anxiously waiting for a copy to become available through the library (I was in position 12 on the queue, though that's nothing compared to the 30ish, which is now down to the teens, for Breaking Dawn). And now! Yay! A copy of New Moon came in today and I get to sit and read it and I am very excited. I can't wait to see where the characters go from Twilight.
If anyone needs me I will be lounging all comfy on my couch in a paranormal romancey stupor of yum.

Anne Stuart Review
I very recently came across Anne Stuart and I have to say I'm pretty impressed. I stumbled upon her first foray into a book series and it was quite enjoyable. The books included in the series so far are:
I missed Ice Storm, but have read the others and enjoyed them. The heroes were a little cookie cutter when it came to emotions and showing them, but the characters were still interesting. They were a nice blend of spy thriller and romance. They could have very easily fallen into the same repetition from one book to the next, but luckily that wasn't the case for me. I look forward to adding them to my bookcase and finding more of the authors works.

Pretty Little Liars Warning
Ok, let me just say I am really laid back. I don't really care what's on tv as long as it's on at a time where it would help to keep it age appropriate.
Now let me say DO NOT let your teens watch this show alone, keep up with it and be informed because it was HORRENDOUS. Within the first twenty minutes a young 16 year old girl went into a bar and grill, which isn't awful even though she was alone but it was daytime and she was getting lunch. But then she met a random guy there and they started talking and after awhile it showed him lifting her up on to a sink in the bathroom so that they could have sex.
She had just moved back into town, this man just started his new job....as her English teacher!!
Another girl was flirting with her sisters boyfriend very heavily. She was in a bikini bathing suit and he's planning on being a doctor and started rubbing a part of her shoulder.
A third girl got in trouble for shoplifting and the mom cleared it all up and it showed the mom leading the detective upstairs after necking in the hallway and then she looked back at the daughter, so the daughter knew her mom was having sex with the cop so she wouldn't get in trouble.
It was awful and so inappropriate. It seems they are based off of books, the same writer I heard that wrote Vampire Diaries. I wouldn't read that junk. There is already too much of teachers taking advantage/making advances to high schoolers that it really doesn't need to be glamorized on tv like that, and for a mother to act like that because she doesn't want her daughters reputation being hurt for shoplifting? It was GROSS.
Be very strongly warned about this show.

Little One's No Fool
As Little One is laying in bed last night, the Hubs and I were tucking her in and saying good night. Suddenly he leans over and 'steals her nose' and 'throws it in his mouth'. What does my daughter do? Gets SUPER affronted, throws her hand out to hold it in front of his mouth and says 'Spit it out daddy! Now!'

Ingles is tripling coupons this week. They have a kinda weird policy on them though, they'll only double/triple 3 coupons per $10. Luckily things like free product coupons can help keep your out of pocket cost low but still get to the $10 total you need.
A really good deal is Borden Singles Sensations - 3 for $5 with a $1 off of 1 coupon out, so 66 cents each

Potty Training
I'm a little upset to admit that it's taken quite a while for the Little One to become potty trained. We tried just about everything except for a chart, I never got around to that one but she just showed absolutely no interest. I was talking about it with my friend Sarah one day, and I'm not sure how it happened but Little One just decided from that day on to be potty trained, not a single accident and even waking up at night to go.
Now that we've won this battle, I'm not exactly sure how to get her to start wearing big girl panties. She refuses to budge from her pull up panties. I don't really want to bug her about it, as at least she's potty trained now, but the whole 'yay potty trained' point was to stop buying pull ups!
Oh well, at least we've moved on to the wonderful world of using the potty and having that needed cleaned out and dumped into the big potty all day, oh the joys of motherhood.

Instead of using these credits to redeem for prizes and things for yourself, you then donate your credits.You can donate 50 credits to offset a pound a carbon, 1,000 plants a tree, 8,000 can get training treats for dogs in shelters, and 10,000 can help with a loan to a small business owner. Plus there are many other options to donate your credits.

Ghost Town
We got Ghost Town in from Netflix yesterday. It's not something the hubs would usually be interested in, so he passed on it. I enjoyed it a lot though, the acting was really well and there were some very funny moments. It stars Rickey Gervais, Greg Kinnear, and Tea Leoni. Ricky Gervais plays a dentist named Bertram Pincus who has a complication during a routine surgery and is pronounced dead only to be brought back with the gift to see the dead. The dead are thrilled to finally find someone alive who can see them and help them finish what they need done before they can move on. Unfortunately for them, Dr. Pincus is not the most friendliest or helpful of people and the movie is a comedic journey to find the person inside of himself who is capable of helping them to move on and the woman he comes to love, a widow of one of the ghosts.
I would tend to group this movie with movies like these:

Laundry in the Rain
Sunday at our place is laundry day. Today is no exception, and I'm hoping I can get it all done before the storm hits. Thunder is already booming, but there's no rain as of yet. It's beautiful outside though, huge dark clouds, a gusty wind, and the green green trees waving. So, even if I do get soaked going to finish my laundry, at least it will be in pretty scenery.
Speaking of laundry, I could really use a recommendation on a stain remover. I have never seen a stain come out in my entire life.Now with Little One turning 4 in a few months, I'm tired of seeing kid life stains all over her clothing. Kool Aid in particular, though yummy when it's allowed, is becoming a bane of my existence. I've tried shout, spray and wash, making sure to use clorox in the wash, and a bunch of other things. I have not tried any home remedies or Oxi Clean, which I would like to give a go but since it's the most expensive of stain fighting products and nothing has ever worked for me before, I'm not really to keen on trying it out.
Throw me some reviews, what do you all use that you've seen work wonders?

Introduction
Welcome to Jessie's Jabberings. (Thanks to a friend for the name idea, I think it suits well).
I'm a very eclectic person, so this blog will not be about just any one think, but will mainly focus on deals ( ie. shopping with coupons, good in store sales, etc) as well as freebies, sweepstakes, and even reviews on books and movies occasionally.
Thank you for reading and I hope that you enjoy my jabberings :D
