#20: September Dish

#20 Cook/bake a new dish every month

Once again, I must admit that I am not being very diligent with this because I tend to stick to my "old faithful" dishes and do not branch out much in my cooking. (Hello, Megan, this is the EXACT reason why you put this one on your list: branch out!) Daniella was cooking homemade (and I mean everything was homemade) spaghetti and meatballs and my thought was "Ohhh, I will jump on this new recipe bandwagon and achieve my blog recipe for the month!". So, I became Daniella's sous-chef and we made an amazingly tasty meal that only took 2 hours ;)!!!


I was put on chopping/dicing/mincing/chiffanonading duty.


AWESOMENESS!!!

P.S. You should always ask an avid wine-opener for a lesson before you attempt to open a bottle. Lets just say, I think that the cork is supposed to be outside of the bottle not inside...oh well, fun times!

RANGERS, WELCOME TO THE WORLD SERIES!!!!

Although I feel as though I was born into the Ranger family (because I have called this great state "my home" for 22 years), I did not become truly dedicated to the team until last season. You see, in my mind I have not really had a reason to be a crazy, over-the-top fan because post season action is not prevalent in Arlington. That is of course, until now as my Rangers (You like how they are now MY Rangers ;) have made it to the big league...I could not be more ecstatic. So, join me as I support my team by becoming one of those over-the-top, Ranger-gear-wearin', tv-yellin', antler/claw-representin', Ranger fools...oops, I mean fans!!!!

I must also give a little shout-out for the amazingly godly example that is Josh Hamilton. I believe that the Lord will bring victory to Texas so that men like Hamilton can be bold witnesses for Him and unbelievers will come to know our great and mighty God!!!


One more shout-out (because I could send shout-outs to my Rangers all day long): GO JULIO BORBON!!!!! I must confess that I am a BIG Borbon fan simply because I love saying his last name with my "Spanish accent"...okay I lie, it's pretty lame but I still love it!
