School

Well I'm back in school, but as a Junior this year. Most people hate going back to school, but I'm really not all that dissapointed. I have two classes of choir, right in a row so my whole A day is pretty much choir. I also signed up for a Web Programming course, but ended up with a computer programming course. It's looking fun but intimidating, I'll really need to work hard in this class. The kid next to me really enjoys talking about something called "bios" and and the kid behind me asked if I knew C++ gooey language. I feel lost, but glad to have people that know this stuff sit by me. My history teacher told some kid who was late to "sit his trash down, and shut up." She seems, well, cool. Last year we had no seniors at our school so the parking lots were pretty much empty, We laugh at lunch now when we end up at the other side of the parking lot and remember when "5 spaces" was too far away. One last comment, yesterday after I pulled out of the lot, a mother in her SUV began to pull out of the other driveway in front of me, but stopped when she noticed me coming. Just then a sophomore rear ended her. Silly sophomores.

Buffalo Fingers

I have a new favorite thing I can cook, this one is for you, Melissa!

Bake 1-2 pounds of breaded chicken tenders, or breasts cut into strips. Save the baking sheet. (I suppose you could also use not breaded chicken to be healthy, but who would want that!?)
To make sauce, mix 1/3 cup soft butter or margerine with 1/4 cup "Louisiana" Style hot sauce, 1/8 cup cool water, 1/8 cup of honey.
Then: Put tenders and sauce in tupperware container or freezer bag and shake it to glaze the chicken in blissfully sweet and spicy goodness.
After 'Saucing' them, put them back on the sheet you baked them on and bake them at whatever temp. you baked the chicken at for about 5 minutes.

Finally, serve the Buffalo Fingers and tell everyone you spent all day cooking them, they might believe you!

New Music

These are a few of my newest favorite songs, Including songs from the bands "O.A.R" (Thanks to my cousing emily for showing me these guys) and "Spoon" (My Bro-In-Law Adam showed me them.) Also on the playlist are a couple of iTunes suggestions, sometimes it throws some stuff I really like! (No Amanda, I'm still not a true Jonas Brothers Fan.)

Goodbye, Carbination.

I've officially decided to stop drinking soda. Lately, water has been sounding good all the time due to the hot weather, and now when I drink pop I just feel sick and tired, so, without further ado, I plan on drinking more water and less pop. Melissa: my only faithful blog reader, you ought to be proud, you might need to find a reason for me to come out and help you so I can get some of the good cookin' to replace all these calories I'll be going without. HA!

I bet you can't guess what I do when I get bored.

Working on Saturday Night

Big changes are happening around work. We are getting a new computer system so our inventory has been counted and checked all week long. To finish the week, Nikki and Adam (My sister and Bro. in Law, and the store owners) decided to buy a new shelfing unit for our Cherokee Workwear solid scrubs, so Emily (My Cousin) and I went in tonight to fold all of the Workwear so it can go into the new shelves. Knowing this could get tedious, I took my trusty camera along, and look at the fun we had.

First off, an out-of-focus pic of Emily peeking through the Doc shoe rack. WIERDO!


Here, I'm hiding from the scrubs. I never wish to see scrubs again in my life after tonight.

Hangers, Hangers everyhwere. What!? I had to take an artisitc picture along the way.

Finally, if you've ever walked bare-footed on glue down carpet (the type most stores and commercial building have) then you'll know what this is all about. If you've ever eated fast food then you probably know all about the ba-donk-a-donk butt you see on the left as well, thanks for noticing...
