You Made What?-Yes, you heard right this morning...I was making taco's last night and thought I was putting the seasoning mix in the meat. Turns out it wasn't the taco seasoning kit. When I mixed it with the water, turned around to slice the lettuce, turned back around and I had formed a nice, thick brown gravy in my meat. I put in a brown gravy mix and not the taco seasoning, gross! What recipe did you blow or meal did you ruin because you put in the wrong ingredient?

Battle of the Sexes: It went to the tiebreaker today and the women won.

TICKED OFF-One entry this morning was from a person that was mad because their neighbor is always naked and is not interested in pulling down the shades. Why is it the naked neighbor is always the one neighbor you'd never want to see naked in the first place?

Random Fact of the Day-The average woman wants her dress size to be a size 8. The average size today is 14. (That's about 40 pounds difference)

$25 Pyramid-I played today and got 5 out of 5 in under 25 seconds! WOOHOO!

Today on The View you can see Jenny McCarthy, 11:00 on ABC. Joy also has a new book out called "When You Need a Lift: But Don't Want to Eat Chocolate, Pay a Shrink, or Drink a Bottle of Gin" and is available everywhere.

Fact or Fiction- Our champion Krissa had $80 going into today's game and lost it to Kathy of Debary. You can steal it from her tomorrow morning at 8:40!
