So, my wall is blank. It's SO boring.
Basically I did order some pictures from Wal-Mart,
then I moseying around the craft isles and though hey. Done.

I made Mini Mexican Meatloaf

Ay-ay-ay! I love mexican food!
I also haven't had meatloaf in ages. Ironically- I like meat loaf.
So, when I saw this simple recipe, it was a must try.
I am in such a big cooking/crafting kick lately.


Ingredients:
1 lb Ground Beef
2 tsp Chili Powder(I used taco seasoning)
1 pkg (6 oz.) stuffing mix(I used Chicken)
1 Cup Water
3/4 cup Chunky Salsa
Mexican style Shredded Cheese

Step 1:
Preheat oven to 375
Mix Beef, Chili Powder, Stuffing Mix, and Water together
WITH YO HANDS!
Because, it is much easier this way, and it's kinda fun.

Step 2:
Grease a 12 portion muffin tin.
put your mix into each tin and press a little indentation in the middle.
Fill this indentation with salsa.

Step 3:
Bake for 30 minutes.
Top with Cheese
Bake another 5-ish minutes; until cheese is melted.

Enjoy! They are pretty filling, and I had enough to freeze for later meals! Perfect!

I Made Buffalo Chicken Taquitos

Today I made these, because I needed a change from my normal
college meal plan of salad, sandwiches, ramen, and easy mac.

They didn't take too long. About 45 min.(if your chicken is already cooked)

In a saucepan melt Butter at medium heat.

Stir to combine and cook for 1 minute.

Step 3:
Stir in Cream Cheese and keep mixing until it has completely
mixed in with the butter and spices.

Step 4:
Mix in Hot Sauce and Milk and let simmer 5-8 minutes.

Step 5:
Add chicken.

Step 6:
Lay out tortilla, put about 1/4 C chicken mix and 2 tbs of cheese onto the tortilla
roll it up and place on baking sheet.

I made my Tight Collar, Looser and Cuter.

So, I hate crew neck shirts.
I feel like I am being strangled by them.

But, every awesome bear, wolf, and any other free t-shirt you get,
is crew neck. It's terrible. 
SOOOOOO I discovered this awesome way
to keep it crew, and nice and loose. 
It also won't fray and look all cray-cray. 

What You Need:
Scissors and your T-Shirt

Step 1:
Locate seam that you will be cutting above.

Step 2:
Cut along seam with your scissors, just make sure you don't cut the seam.

Done!! And you can even wear the cut off collar as a super awesome headband
that matches the shirt you're wearing.


Peace&Love
