Hey friends. I am putting together an e-cookbook of favorite quick dinner recipes. You know, things you can throw together in 30 minutes or less and get your whole group fed. Would you be willing to share your favorites with me? If your recipe is selected, I will send you an e-copy of the book, and you will have your name on the web for the rest of your life.
I’m looking for family favorites here: things that your people love. And they should be a friend/family recipe, not something that you grabbed from a cookbook.
Send them to me at recipes@kathilipp.com and you will have a bunch of new favorites coming your way soon!
BTW – we have some winners from our great Organizing Giveaway. If you are one of the following winners, go ahead and email sunnie at kathilipp.com and she will get your goodies sent out!
Welcome! I’m so glad you stopped by.
Isn’t Julie a hoot?!?
I want you to keep lovin’ on your man! So if you sign up for my newsletter (orver there on the right) I will sen you an e-cookbook: THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO MAN FOOD (or how to drive your husband wild with passion by impersonating Betty Crocker.)
The webcast and twitter party are today at 11AM CA time (2PM East Coast) and here is the link to join in:
I’m sitting in a hotel in Colorado Springs and just can’t get to sleep. It’s been a great day with a visit to MOPS headquarters getting to present to many people on their staff. We had fun with THE ME PROJECT, and I had a chance to meet one on one with several of their key leadership. Had lunch at a great BBQ place (Brothers, if you are ever in the Denver area. Roger is a rock star when it comes to sniffing out the best dives.) Thanks to those of you who were praying for my time there.
Wednesday, I have a radio interview with Focus on the Family.
As you can imagine, I’m a wee bit nervous.
I will be sharing about THE HUSBAND PROJECT (to be broadcast at a later date.) I would love your prayers that I communicate clearly, would be able to sleep tonight, and would be an encouragement to those who are wanting more for their marriages.
So many of you read my books or this blog because you love story. Tell me what I should (don’t you hate that work, should?) do, and I rebel. Tell me a story, and change my life.
Someone I work with and admire, Julie, sent out this trailer and everyone I’ve shared it with is amazed. How can two minutes be so much. Because we all have a horse God has put in our lives to learn from. Perhaps your horse is a teenage son, or a boss who beats you down. Maybe it’s your husband who has had a midlife meltdown, or an aging parent who is making you crazy.
All you have to do today is just brag on him a little.
Let it drop to his mom that he’s a great husband. Let your kids know that their dad is the smartest guy you know (or makes the best salsa in the world.) Brag to your girlfriend about how your husband knows how to hang up a towel.
It really is that easy.
Oh and to help you in this department, I’m offering a little special over at the store: buy one of the “My Husband is a Hottie” shirts over at the store, and just for this week they are $14 (usually $18.)
When my assistant, Sunnie wore this in front of her kids, her sons couldn’t BELIEVE that their mom would wear such a shirt. Yep – it’s the only shirt on the planet that can make your husband blush, your mother-in-law proud, and your kids embarrassed at the same time. Check it out in my store at http://www.kathilipp.com/products/ under OTHER. (They will be on sale through Friday.)
OH – and a head’s up! On Thursday, I want you to get your husband a treat – a candy bar, a slice of cake, something (that he doesn’t have to share with you or a kid…) so you may want to be on the lookout today for something to give him tomorrow!
Today’s winner will get a DVD of THE HUSBAND PROJECT.
Who knew that so many men needed some flirting in their lives?
Over 60 (!) of you signed up for the 5 Day Flirting Challenge. I am blown away! And it’s not too late: If you have a friend who you want to challenge along with you, send her over here and she can flirt along with the rest of us!
So how bad did I need this in my own life? Just last night as I was falling asleep, Roger said, “Thanks for all the extra attention this weekend. It’s been so nice…” (And all I could think of was that I gave him an extra hug in the morning. Yikes. The poor boy has been way deprived…)
So today, all I want you to do is leave a post-it somewhere where only he will find it (and he doesn’t have to find it today.) Write something fun, something flirty. Here are 21 suggestions from the book THE HUSBAND PROJECT
I’m praying for you today.
Those jeans are really working for you…
I love you.
You are the best dad!
You’re the kind of husband that makes the other wives jealous.
You rock my world!
Can’t wait to see you tonight – meet me upstairs…
Thanks for working hard to provide for us. I appreciate all that you do.
You make me feel beautiful.
I thank God for you everyday.
How did I get so lucky, being married to a guy like you?
You’re great!
You make everyday more fun.
Have a great day.
You’re hot!
I feel so safe with you.
Smart and good looking – I’ve got the whole package in you!
You can be very distracting, you know…
Our kids are so blessed to have a dad like you.
That smile I wear – it is all because of you.
God have blessed me in big ways by letting me be your wife.
And once you tell me what you wrote and where you hid it, I will put you in the drawing for a copy of my latest book THE ME PROJECT
And our winner from Friday is:True Random Number Generator
