So, uhm. Sorry?

So, Foodie Friday didn't work this week. Sorry.

But I've been busy. I went shopping on Friday. And I bought a lot of cute stuff..
I finished a couple of swaps.
I've been making Christmas cards.

 Christmas is right around the corner!

I've been keeping up on my mail. A little. Lmao.  Mom bought me some stamps. She knows the way to my heart. She got a tattoo! The wild woman. It is a nice one on her wrist saying 'Hope'. Go Mom Go!

So, just updating. Going to work now...lol.

Happy ThanksGiving!

Howdy :).

Just wanna tell you now, FF will be moved to Saturday because of the holiday! And I will show you some of the family ways to eat your leftovers!

I go to Bay City with My Nana and Mom, and this year my Great Aunt Pat! We go down town, and there is like no one there due to black friday. :). It's how we start the holiday, and my favorite family tradition!

So, I leave you with this:



my Done 10 minute turkey monster. You know you love him.

So, have a safe, filling Thanksgiving :)

The Girl Who Cooked.

Happy Foodie Friday!

It's Harry Potter weekend! So, with that said Today's FF is brought to you by:



Dum Dum Dumdum! (Harry Potter theme!)

Anyway. Today I'm doing: Popovers. Pretty much the American Lazy version of Yorkshire Pudding. The only difference: is Yorkshire has roast drippings in it.

So.
Preheat oven to 425*F ( about 22*C)

Here's what you need:

• Milk
• Butter
• 3 eggs
• flour
• salf
• 1/2 cup measuring cup
• bowl
• spoon
• fork
• muffin tin

Take the bowl, but 1 1/2 cups( 3 things of the 1/2 measuring cup...I'm weird)  of flour, with a dash of salt in the bowl

Like so:

Add 1 1/2 cups of Milk then the eggs.









Grab a fork:

poke the eggs: (easier to mix with, I think.)

Start stirring, baby! Woot!

Don't over mix. Mix for 2 minutes, and no more then that.









Get it to a heavy cream constancy.

Take your muffin tin, and put about a teaspoon of butter in each muffin cup:

Then melt it in the oven:

Pour it in. I say to where it's almost full. Almost!!

Put it in the oven:

This is the hard part! Don't peak until you think it's done. Leave it in for 20-25 minutes.

They should like this:



There you have it!! :D
Card:




There you have it! I'm off to go save Muggles from bad cooking!

<3
the girl who cooked.

Foodie Friday...cancel...Promise for next week!

So who this this Charlie?
He's a dastardly little bugger. And he hurts me all the time...and...I hate him!

This is Charlie:


See how evil he looks!!!! Ugh! So, like every good woman on my Great Great Great (list goes on) Grandmothers side, had gallbladder attacks. Or Stomach problems. I guess it's caused by stones, or whatever.

And wanna here the Zinger?

I don't get my insurance until January...at least I'm getting it back, right? Thanks Obama!

I don't know if any you have ever had gallbladder problems...but OUI! It hurts! And like...I get so drained. UGh! I can't eat. ( Being a big girl...I like to eat, Man! UGH!)

So why name it Charlie? Well, my friends/family knows if I name it, it's bad. Uterus is Lola, my Tonsils (RIP) Where Fred and George! and Now, Charlie, the gallfuckingbladder.
Plus, then I can do this:

OUUUUUUCCCHHH CHARRLLIIEE THA' REAHLLY HURRT!

lmao. K. So, next week I promise! lol

Internets.

Ok. So, all your know, I'm a troller of the internet. It just happens. I can't help it.

So I was on 9GAG this afternoon and I found this:


Makes me think: What the hell windows. Someone said ' It was on there to test your MIDI files. ' but...why?
...I think we are getting trolled.
I am a windows person. Here is my set up:


The laptop is a touch screen. I have it set up as a Mac. I love the touchscreen.  Sorry for crappy picture. :)
What is your set up?

OMG!

So, that' was me this morning. My good friend Andrew sent me a nice little package this morning. It had a little parrot origami, drawing of Yoda, a little letter, and a 2 packets of coco and marshmallows. :) Really made my morning!

Then, I hop on to my blog, and go on twitter. And my new friend, Emily gave me this:

Anywho, off to go..do...stuff. :) See you Friday! 

Foodie Friday! :D

Hello Everyone.

I am going to *try* to do this thing called Foodie Friday. I am not a cook. Or a domestics person in general. Doesn't mean I can't try to learn. So, reader, off to the land undiscovered, to the land of good cooking?

I am going to start off with something I learned is amazingly simple. I love pancakes, who doesn’t? They’re good for anything. Making a breakfast sandwiches, bad days, good days, or just good because. They’re a favorite. I personally like to make them when I am mad. They clear the mind when making them. I also think I’m going to be the type of wife who will bake when pissed. Favorite pie hot of the oven when you get home, yous be in deep shit.

I was growing tired of regular pancakes from a box. Bman( Little Bro) was out for the summer. We wanted pancakes. We didn’t have the mix. So, I went on online and searched, like any good person my age would. I came up with a few different things. I decided to take bits and pieces, and make my own. So, here I give you:

My AwesomeHotCakes.

1 ½ cups of Flour
3 ½ teaspoons of baking powder (Mari's got some good reads :))
Dash of salt
1 ¼ cups of milk
1 egg
Cinnamon to taste ( I like a lot…)

In your bowl, put all dry ingredients in, then wet.
Mix together with Whisk.

Mix can be a little lumpy. Scoop mix onto a hot pan or griddle.

Wait until top side is bubbly then flip!







There you have it. Nice pancakes for a good morning. Make a whole batch and save for later. That’s what I do.  And I’m just starting on the recipe card things. If you have any hints for me, that would be awesome .

NOW GO EAT SOME PANCAKES.
Or panicakes if you’re my Grandma…

In the name of the moon, I shall punish you!!!

Ok.
Soo. I've been slackin on the bloggin a wee bit. Sorry. I've been busy.

Work has been piling up. I hate tan kids. You do not come out tan if you tan before hand. You will be orange K.
That's my photography advice.

As I said in my last post, Mom was supposed to get botox injections in her stomach.  Well, U of M kinda Eff-d her over. The lady sent the paper in for our insurance a day BEFORE hand. Of course our insurance was like 'ahahah, No'. So. There continues Mom's long battles with GP. Grrr.

I wanted to do a craft show. But, with work ( FU TANNERS) I don't think I can. I rather get Mom caught up. She needs it.
I've been doing a few Journal Swaps. I'm pretty excited. But, that's all I got going on. I'm like actually doing them here and there instead of ' OMG IT'S A WEEK BEFORE THEY'RE DUE." So, that's nice :D

I've been slackin on Pen Palling. So, Pen Pals, please forgive me. I'll get to you. :D Life is just busy.

And to top it ALLL off this week, I'm freakin sick. ugh. I'm loading on Aloe, Chicken Soup herbal tea, and peppermint oil.

And I give you daily dose of Smudge.

She has a facebook page: here.
