30 Day Blog Challenge

I had a great blogging streak going there for a while, and then, I fell of the wagon.  Well, this girl is picking herself up off of the blogging trail and getting back on that wagon.  I have several ideas up my sleeve to share, I just hope I can keep up!  I found this "30 Day Blog Challenge" at www.robynbeazley.com. (A site I stumbled upon through www.crystalcattle.com.) Her site is titled "Live An Amazing Life".  She's wrote a book with the same title.  I've bought it.  I started reading it and cannot find where I laid it down...that doesn't mean it isn't good, it is. I enjoy reading it.  I think that it's helped jump start me back to my old self.  Trust me, I have strayed away from her, and I've missed her.  Don't worry, she's on a come back!!

Day 1-- My favorite song....
Really? Just one? Um, I don't know if I can.  Favorite "getcha up and getcha going" song: "Don't Stop Belivin'" by Journey. Favorite Christmas song: "Christmas to Remember" by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton (don't judge).  Favorite Hymns: "I'll Fly Away", "On Eagle's Wings", "Amazing Grace".  Favorite George Strait tune(s): "The Chair", "Ocean Front Property", "Baby Blue".  I have lots of songs. Its a day to day thing, heck, it may change by lunch time! I love "Proud Souls" by Jason Boland, " Tennessee Whiskey" by George Jones, "Silver Wings" by Merle Haggard, "Rock Springs to Cheyenne" by Micky & the Motorcars...I like the Dallas theme song. 

Again, Fern has made the easy thing hard.

King Ranch Chicken and Buttermilk Pie

I know that my goals over there read, blog at least 2x per week...still can't cross that one off of my list. Nor, can I cross off don't eat out for a week--eating is such a social activity. Maybe if I wasn't so social AND like eating so much, the number inside my jeans would be much smaller...that and beer is also a social activity...and I like beer and I am social...ANYWAY... My dear friend Brandi asked for pie baking lessons. We arranged an evening to make said pie. Flavor: Buttermilk. She did very well. We made crust from scratch, and she rolled it out herself. Although, she did get to use the Cuisinart to do the crust. I really wanted to make her use a fork or a pastry blender thingy. She wasn't so much a fan of scooping the lard, but ooooo lard makes such lovely crust. Prior to pie baking she asked for a list of ingredients. I said lard...blah, blah... and she said, Crisco? And, I said no...LARD. Lard makes such amazing crust, but that's another day....

Hodge Podge

A hodge podge of thoughts on a Wednesday: 1) My dad is the greatest...but of course I'm supposed to say this. I inherited many things that make me stunningly similar to this little round man, well little and round...there's two things for my list and the way I walk and talk and my hands and legs and feet...he has a kind heart, and I like to think that mine is from time to time, an appreciation for all things outside and good cows and stout horses, fine scotch and starched jeans...HOWEVER, I DID NOT INHERIT HIS PATIENCE, HIS EVER PRESENT FAITH THAT GOOD WILL ALWAYS COME, AND HIS CALM...nope, it's no where that I can find in myself. I do always feel better after I have a mental overflow and call him. How he hasn't choked me before now is a wonder Let's just say that there was a meltdown of momentous proportion this morning, but after a phone call with Tubby, the course (although still unknown) is a little smoother 2) Emotional eating is something that I have develo...
