Pizza + Metro Detroit = Buddy's!

     I think there is (or was) a jingle that goes "if you haven't had a Buddy's pizza....you haven't ...had a pizza yet!"  Corny, right!?  (Now that I think of it....I don't know where that jingle came from in my brain...so if anyone can verify I didn't make it up....let me know...'cause I'm starting to think I made it up!!??)  Regardless, it's true....it's terrific pizza!

Buddy's Restaurant Pizzeria 

     The kids and I were out doing a bunch of running around recently (Grandma was with my sister-in-law for a few hours) and when we realized we ended up near a Buddy's Pizza...the kids were all over it for lunch!!  It was 2 pm and we were hungry!  Buddy's is another Detroit area tradition -- and has fantastic (award winning) pizza!  One thing that makes it great is that my kids -- especially Jacob -- love the antipasto salad and chow it down like it's candy!!  I love that they love it -- and you will have to trust me that my cell phone pics do not do it justice!  I would choose this pizza over Chicago style any day!
     Anyone else out there tried it??  What did you think??  If you're ever in the Metro Detroit area...check it out!!  Pizza and Fridays -- they go together!

Life Goes On...

Here are some random pictures I wanted to share...
As you can see, we are checking off some of the things on our Summer List...Slip Slidin' Away!  A "capture the flag" Slip 'n Slide.  (One wants the flag...the other wants to sliiiide!).  I love that my kids are old enough to not only set up their own Slip 'n Slide, but also to figure out that if they duct tape two slides together, it's double the fun!!


How do I love my "Lucky" dog, let me count the ways...  He thinks he is a small dog or a cat and rests his "front half" on the window sill daily watching the birds, bugs, kids, planes, cars, and world go by!!


Two of my favorite art pieces from Jacob and Kristin's end of school year art -- I just love bright colors!!  I never know what to do with the tons of art they bring home...(I won't tell you where some of it ends up!)


This warms my heart -- Kristin giving Grandma a manicure...  They have a special bond...starting from the day she was named Kristin Mary after her Grandma...

(Two more art pieces on the left)

What have you been up to??  Sometimes you just have to get things off of your camera.  Anything still in your camera??

Happy Feet!! :)

Got my pedicure !! 


     Also wanted to share that I had ordered these Dana Buchman flip flops* from http://www.kohls.com/ awhile back in the clearance section.  Kinda cute, right!?  I'm a flip flop fanatic and these by no means are my cutest or best deal....however...

Clearance price $2 (Reg. $5)
Free shipping

Final Cost:  $2 each/shipped

I think they still have limited amounts.  Don't know if there's a free shipping code out there.  I know it's .99 cent shipping now.

*Part of their "Kohl's Cares" collection.  100 percent of profits go to support the fight against breast cancer.   (Kinda feel bad that I got such a great deal.)
