More Randoms thoughts and pics
1. Football is over in this house- The Cowboys lost their last game and it was terrible! There was a lot of yelling, screaming and swearing. People even came over to watch Keith watch the game for the entertainment value. But at least it is over until next year.
2. One of the people who came over is Auri. He is a foreign national from Lithuania who is in the same school as Keith. Keith is responsible to help in school and to socialize him. There are supposed to be two different people who do this for each foriegn national, but Auri really likes Keith and wanted him to do both. So Keith brings him to the house often, and especially for football games. He has taught Auri the rules for American Football and has trained him to say, "how about them Cowboys!"
He take him to resturants often and his favorite so far is Mexican food. He has asked me to find him a cookbook that he can take home. I also feed him often to give him a flavor of all sorts of food. He has really enjoyed everything thus far.
Here is Auri trying really hard not to let me take a picture of him.
3. So talking about Mexican food- I have had to put my tamale making on hold. The cornhusks were not coming through so I had to order them online and they will be here sometime next week. So the meat and broth are in the freezer waiting for these dang things to show up. Such a bummer because I need to make them and make them soon!
4. Well I am really liking my kitchen more and more. Not really for "the looks" of it but for the size of it. It is much bigger than my last kitchen so moving around in it is much nicer and I have been cooking way more. I tried this awesome recipe and even took pictures because it is so pretty! The family is begging me to make it again and soon- so here it is!
Here it is before I cooked them in a broiler
Here it is right out of the broiler
This is a 1.5lbs flank steak that has been pounded thin to approximately 12 x 8 and then layered with 8 pieces of cooked bacon, spinach and parmesan cheese. Then it is rolled up and secured with toothpicks one inch apart and cut into one inch pieces. Oh my, it is soooo good!!
5. I got roses in the mail a couple days ago from a friend! Lucky me!!
