Cincinnati wrap up – Part II

It seems I failed to mention that we bought 2 spoons full of 9.99 per pound olives stuffed with Fetta cheese. ๐Ÿ˜‰

After our trip to Jungle Jim’s we found ourselves back at the hotel and waiting on Rick’s sister and husband to arrive. So we watched the game, rested and loaded pictures.

Our evening goes down like this…..

We walk 1 mile to the park along the river (map), hmm wonder why no one saw the WALKING button Saturday. That was really ok, paid our monies and there we were at a festival with real beer. The Celtic Festival is an interesting thing.

Ok, this is funny

It is too good to pass up.

Cincinnati Wrap UP – Part 1

Good to be home but I could of done without this craptastic weather.

Saturday we took off for Jungle Jim’s. OMG it looks like an amusement park. This is INSIDE the parking lot.

We came home with quite a haul of goodies that we couldn’t find locally. First there was the tortilla warmer of course you can get one of these locally the major problem is that they wanted something like $15 and I found this one for just under $8. ๐Ÿ™‚ There are two things that we picked up that WERE available locally but have since disappeared first is the ever so famous Boat Beer as . . . → Read More: Cincinnati Wrap UP – Part 1

Good Morning from Cincinnati

Well as you know nothing ever goes like it should. I mean really I try very hard but it NEVER works out that way. The plan: Depart work at 2 pm, pack up things play with dogs and head to Carla’s 2:45 then depart for IND 3pm, pick up Ruck 4 pm and head to Cincinnati to arrive 6pm. Hopefully get to the hotel and to dinner by 7:30. AHAHHAHAHHAH!!!! Well things got a rough kick in the nads when KLT was requested to be on an important phone call at you guessed it 2 pm. Now that will leave me to pack up everything in the rain by myself. . . . → Read More: Good Morning from Cincinnati

Wednesday

And honestly I am just going to complain. Sorry but it’s just going to be one of those days. I don’t know how this happened but Wednesday has turned out to be worse than a typical than Monday. For those not in the know I have been in training all week and still have today and tomorrow to suffer through. Suffer was the correct word everything from the chairs that are KILLING my back and the poor job this instructor is doing. There are just certain things that I have come to expect from someone teaching a class, I don’t know for instance you should know what the hell you . . . → Read More: Wednesday

Grilled Pizza

You know we started out making grilled pizza with the regular kinds of things a ready made crust that hangs next to the pizza in the freezer section, a bottle of pizza sauce and the tried and true toppings of cheese, sausage and pepperoni. From there we decided making our own crust would be fun and friends tell me it’s pretty easy. When then came the low carb diet. HAHHA! It was then that I went searching for a whole wheat or whole grain crust. My past experiences with making pizza crust is that they are all bland and never taste like one you get in a restaurant, so to . . . → Read More: Grilled Pizza

BLT anyone?

I am a little behind and really I am not sure why. I feel like I have been pretty busy but I really don’t think I have anything to show for it. *sigh*

OK now back to our BLT. KLT and I don’t mind spending a little extra money on food if it’s going to be GOOD! Hey don’t get me wrong I still shop at the local bulk club and the big box store to save money on every day items. Well the item in question of being good is the Bacon, as you know bacon is the star of a BLT. Oh and I should mention now I . . . → Read More: BLT anyone?

& now back to your regularly scheduled post = ENCHILADAS

This is long over due. But things tend to get crazy in my life all at once. ๐Ÿ˜‰ I had planned on working on this while in the office but there have been issues with getting to my blog from there.

So the other night we had Enchiladas and I tried very hard to get pictures of all the parts and the process. ๐Ÿ˜‰ It is so amazing how much better my 540 flash works than the other one. I missed it so much while it was in a broken status, thank you Suzie for your help with breaking my flash and making me totally crazy on 08-08-08.

some stuff It’s odd what you find with google

I am sitting here writing this with my bottom lip all a quiver and my eyes filled with tears. I am so ANGRY and I hurt for my friend KA so deeply that I seriously want to drink myself into a dull numbness that will maybe allow me a few minutes to start the grieving process.

Lamb burgers anyone?

So we were a little late getting back to my place from KLT’s and quite honestly I was pretty tired. Gwen was pretty sore and unhappy. Coming up with a good idea for dinner was difficult and then as we are getting busy with the prep work her comes the neighbor. Her son needs some help with his home work and they are unable to help him (now there is a “story” here, it’s not that the parents are not smart it is just that he’s a normal pre-teen). Well anyway we opted for some lamb burgers. I grabbed some fresh rosemary and a small sweet white onion, then I . . . → Read More: Lamb burgers anyone?
