I have to tell you, I am so glad to be back in East Texas! My family tree runs all through it, from Gilmer to Jacksonville to Troup. I know the difference between a Jacksonville "mater," a Noonday onion and a Gilmer yam! I also eat, breathe, and sleep pop culture and the “at work” lifestyle. Outside of radio, I’m a busy working mom -- proud of my two little ones, ages 10 and 4. They keep me grounded. Time management -- what’s that? I’m just as guilty as the next working mom and I try to get it all done in a day! Calm, cool, and together? That's NOT ME! Bad hair days, lollipop stuck to my bottom, plastic Spider-Man in my purse … THAT’S more like it. I’m also active in Girl Scouting where I lead a troop. I'm also an avid runner, a Sunday School teacher and a Crock Pot aficionado (let's swap recipes). Thanks for having me back and I look forward to hearing from you!

Rob Thomas Tweets About Dogs
We're all having a crazy busy Monday in between getting winners for the Mix 93-1 Payroll and all the events surrounding the East Texas State Fair, I wanted to share with you the best tweet I saw from Rob Thomas. Now, if you're a dog lover you will get it...
The Most Ridiculous State Fair Foods
I just thought this was worth sharing with the kick off of our East Texas State Fair yesterday. I found an article that lists the 10 most ridiculous fair foods around and I am kind of proud of myself, only one thing looks good to me in this list. Catch more after the jump.
Bruno Mars To Appear On Sesame Street
I was looking around today and I found a promo picture for the new season of Sesame Street which starts next Monday. So far there's no word on the date for his appearance but here's my question, can you name all of the characters in the picture? I'll help you out, the guy in the middle is Bruno Mars! Good memories! Give me your guesses of all the characters after the jump!
SpongeBob Gets Beat Up [VIDEO]
Okay, I’ll be the first to admit it - SpongeBob gets on my last nerve. Everything about him, the whiny voice, the high waist pants, the bulbous nose, the annoying laugh. I don’t get it! Yes, I’ve been known to let my kids watch the show but after a while it just gets under your skin. I saw this video and I have to admit, I not only laughed, but I got it! I totally got it! Have a great aftern
Giant Gummy Bears For Sale
OMG, Katy Perry would be so jealous! Here are some things to spend your $100 on when you win the Mix 931 Payroll, giant gummy bears. See, I'm being optimistic. If that doesn't tempt you, how about a Pole Dancer Alarm Clock or a Cheeseburger Phone...
Girls Wearing Lipstick – How Young Is To Young?
Okay, what is wrong with this picture? Really? Look closely. Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding yes, that's Suri Cruise wearing bright red lipstick! Quick question, do we let our 4 or 5 year old daughters wear bright red lipstick for anything other than dance recitals...
Celebs With No Eyebrows
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner! This is what I've been using as a "time waster" today. Yep! I admitted it! Celebs with no eyebrows! I am going to make a habit of checking this site every day now! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did (and do...
Can You Cook Like Julia — I am going to try
Okay, on Sunday night I watched "Julia and Julie" and just loved it. I also made the decision that I am going to turn into a reliable cook. I love to do it -- but it doesn't always turn out so great! (Seriously ask my kids!).
I went out and bought the "Art of French Cooking" and let me tell you right now --I am going to master J.C.'s Double B!! Let me break that down -- Ju
Toys-R-Us Guide For Differently Abled Kids
I saw this and it made me think about Christmas, Santa Claus, and gift giving a little differently. I'm sure we've all at some point anxiously awaited Toys-R-Us and it's "Big Book". If you're not hip, it previews the hot toys for Christmas and comes out in November. Many a child has ear marked the page or pages of his or her favorites! Last week's Children's Miracle Network Radiothon
Marshmallows Anyone?
Today is a glorious day! It's National "Toasted" Marshmallow Day. The way these little suckers are supposed to be! Not burned black, not cold and firm, not tinged with the essence of lighter fluid, just TOASTED to perfection! I suggest you grab some co-workers and head in mass to management immediately and demand a camp fire outting! In honor of this special day, I bring you a re-po
Crochet: Is It Worth Wearing?
And now, I bring you, Man Crochet! Again, I defer to my favorite site, whatnottocrochet, it never disappoints! I honestly think the art of crocheting is a lost one. I'm not sure what I like more, the gorgeous men or the fact that they are actually wearing what they are wearing...
Faith Hill And Tim McGraw Barbies On The Way
We need not to have Barbies that look like this. This will commemorate Tim McGraw and Faith Hill's 15 years of marriage and will be at our fingertips in October. This calls to mind the fiasco that is the Royal Wedding Couple Dolls. I know they had like 7 artists work on that one, but the results are, well, equally as scary...
