Recent Eats

Howdy!

Here are some of my recent eats:

chineseSemi-homemade General Tso’s chicken. I just breaded the chicken with flour and fried it in oil for a few minutes, and then added enough sauce to coat the chicken. Easy peasy.

IMG_4967A fellow classmate was fundraising for THON, so I had to show my support 😉

IMG_4995Black eyed pea stew! I found black eyed peas on sale at the grocery store for 50 cents, so I researched some soup recipes and made this stew. The only thing I changed was that I replaced the kielbasa with sausage. It was great!

IMG_4993Check out the new Pop-tart flavor! I tried the limited edition marshmallow hot chocolate flavor in this post and the strawberry flavor in this post. Red velvet? Highly recommended.

That’s all the pictures I have of food for ya.

In my next post, I have a lot (of random things) to share, including the fact that my family got a new kitten! FelixMeet Felix!

Don’t worry, I’m still giving lots of love and kisses to Lola, the most shiny dog in the world. I need to learn her secret for shiny hair… lolaI can’t imagine life without animals! They’re such a blessing.

Have a great weekend!

Pet City

It’s the end of the semester. My brain is fried. I’m stressed.

Instead of doing homework, I keep finding myself playing with my pets!

Sometimes I (try to) study on my bed and Lily, my sister’s cat, jumps up on the bed with me and wants attention. lilyCollage

I try to walk my dog every day. Even if I’m super busy or stressed. I know it’s good for her–physically and it’s good for me–mentally. Fresh air, even if it’s freezing, feels so good.

Funny story about this picture. I usually read on my phone while I walk Lola. I took this picture and started reading. The next time I looked at her, her vest was gone. Sad!

I honestly think that pets are amazing at sensing when their owners are stressed/sad/mad/etc. and respond accordingly. I love it and it’s such a blessing!
