Mistakes, Opportunites, Signs.........

Cocaine Princess here.

I feel as if I've been neglecting this little awesome blog of mine, certainly not on purpose of course. I blame it on the season of summer and let me tell you it's been one hell of a summer so far! I've been spending a lot of time with my friends going out here and there which is why I haven't been posting my usual spectacular Friday entries that you all have become so use to. Not to worry, Canadian summers are very short.

A couple of sleepless nights ago I was channel surfing when I came across "Oprah's Master Class." I've never been a fan of Ms.Winfrey however I am a fan of who the guest was in that particular episode, Vanessa Williams.  Towards the end of the show Vanessa said something that touched me:

"I always ask for guidance, show me the way, Give me a sign, I'll follow it. Just show it to me and it always comes, it always shows up when you are aware, when you look for it, even when you're not looking for it........."

Those of you who know me are well aware what a big believer I am in receiving signs and messages from the universe. 

As the show closed Oprah asked the following question that made me think, hmm....


"Are mistakes really mistakes, or just opportunities to move us into another direction?"

What do you think?

"You Don't Need To Famous Or Jesus To Do This"

Cocaine Princess here.

I've had another exhausting week. It's been one of those weeks where as soon as I stepped foot inside my house the first thing I did was fling my bra off and utter the word, ahh..........

I'll be back next Friday with a brand spanking new post. I promise.

In the meantime, I came across this article on the web: You've heard of people posting "selfies" on Twitter and Instagram, right? Well now you can eat your own face every morning with the toaster selfie and you don't have to be famous or Jesus to do it! 

"The customizable kitchen appliance, which has been developed by a US firm (of course), allows you to burn a picture of yourself onto a slice. You send a selfie to the Vermont-based Burnt Impressions and have your personal mugshot toaster within a week.  The company isn't just limited to personalized photos either. Burnt Impressions will also create a personalized toaster for you. Clip art. Line art. Logos. 

  The company also sells glow-in-the-dark refrigerator magnets featuring real slices of Jesus toast cast in acrylic (because why not)."

And by the way, the original Jesus toasters are still available as well as The Virgin Mary Toaster and sell for $75.00. Click here to place your order. Hey it's never to early to start shopping for Christmas gifts!

Whatever your plans are have a fun weekend.....and why not indulge in a drinkie or two, after-all it is patio season.~x

Mick Jagger's Curse

 

Cocaine Princess here.

This past weekend I went to the track and I must say I had one hell of a time. I'll be blogging about that next week (with pictures too!) I would have posted it this week but below is how I've been feeling these past few days:

In World Cup news, did any of you happen to watch the game between Brazil & Germany? For sure I thought Brazil was going to win and advance to the finals. Good Lord was I ever wrong! To say the Germans slaughtered the Brazilians would be a severe understatement.

In 45 minutes, Germany scored 5 goals. 4 of them were scored in 6 mins--- the fastest in World Cup history. I, along with the tens of other millions who were watching was stunned. Brazil finally managed to score a goal. (I think only because at that point The Germans must have felt sorry for them) Germany won 7~1. Ouch!! Brazil played beyond poorly. A bunch of 3 year olds could have probably played better! Hmm, me thinks the game was fixed............. or perhaps Mick Jagger cursed the game. 

This Sunday is the final game-- Argentina vs. Germany.

May the best team win.

My loyal and dear readers, it's finally Friday.

Whatever your plans are have a winning weekend.~x

The Psychic Turtle

 ****Updated: The Turtle was correct-- Brazil won against Colombia 2-1. While Germany beat France 1-0. Brazil next faces Germany****

Cocaine Princess here.

It's the quarter finals in the World Cup. Aside from France playing against Germany, today Brazil faces off with Colombia. 

I'm torn as to who I should be cheering for. I've always been a Team Brazil supporter but my background is Colombian. I feel I should be chanting GO COLOMBIA GO!  but Colombia hasn't played in the past four World Cup games, so for them to come this far says a lot about the team. Part of me feels I should be supporting and rooting for the Motherland.
 
Brazil or Colombia?

Oh, woe is me.  
  
Meanwhile, "Cabecao the turtle, who is thought to predict World Cup outcomes, gives his pick for the quarter-final match between Brazil and Colombia on Friday. At his sanctuary in the Brazilian state of Bahia, Cabecao uses sardine selection to predict who will advance to the semi-final. After much deliberation, the turtle backs Brazil, much to the delight of the crowd."

We shall see if the Psychic Turtle's prediction is correct.

My loyal and dear readers, it's finally Friday.
 

Happy 4th Of July to my American Lovelies.

Whatever your plans are have a fun, safe & patriotic weekend. ~x
