i heart beignets

Yesterday morning, instead of sleeping in after a stressful week of school, I went to Brandon's house for breakfast. It turned out that he wanted to make beignets for breakfast along with this bacon and spinach egg scramble.
Can we say yum?
It took about an hour and a half cooking the food, techincally I watched and helped a bit whereas Brandon, chef extraordinaire, cooked mostly.
(I just took pictures)
Speaking of pictures, originally I brought my camera, but when I tried turning it on, I realized the camera hasn't been charged in a while. So, I borrowed Brandon's camera in hopes of making a mini food blog post.
(Pictures to come later, when Brandon eventually e-mails them to me)
So, here is a preview of what we ate, or at least the beignets.




The mix I bought him when I went to New Orleans for a conference. He was beyond excited and I must say, it's probably the best birthday present I've ever given him since I did leave for NOLA on his birthday.

Delicious and filling.
WARNING: try not to eat before the actual breakfast cooking process is done. I had about three before we finished cooking the rest of the beignets and bacon and spinach egg scramble.

if you're not cheating, you're not trying.

It's hot.
Well, maybe not in the Horn Center, but it's hot outside.
It's supposed to be fall, but because this is Southern California, the sun refuses to leave.
So, here I am.
Wearing skinny jeans, suede ankle boots and a black top. Did I mention I also brought a BLACK jacket too?
Ugh.
FML.

So, I read up on my ESPN headlines today and thought i would share a couple links that caught my attention:

NHL: The cup is up for grabs again and, this time, anything's possible
NBA: Allen Iverson: Detroit Pistons "lied" about coming off bench
NFL: Nike denies signing Michael Vick to sponsorship pact
MLB: Minnesota Twins insulted by notion of stealing Detroit Tigers' signs

Today's winning article goes to MLB.
*insert applause*
Frankly, I didn't even know trying to steal signs was "common practice" in baseball, but then again, anything can happen in the game.
I loved Gardenhire's (Twins Manager) quote at the end of the article, "If you're not cheating, you're not trying."
Definitely sounds like something I would say to a Little Leaguer. NOT. (LOL)

just another halo victory

I know this is late, but...
Congrats to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim for clinching the AL West Division!
I wish I had tickets. (Hint, Hint)

declaration of blogging


This is my declaration.

I shall write in this blog, or attempt to, everyday.

I'm sure I mentioned a similar declaration when I first started this blog, but really...

What's the point of this blog, if I don't write in it everyday? Or, at least every other day.


So, that is my declaration.

Wish me luck.


Oh, and yes..this entry counts as day one.

And yes, that is cheating.

But, hey! Who said when it was going to start. ;]


Btw, I am still in the library.

Blarggg.

ps. remind me to never go to the library with my brother, I think he's becoming delusional.

Poor kid.

Someone should've warn him the dangers of college. ;P

library session.

I'm in the library with my brother right now.
I'm "attempting" to study....
English Grammar homework FTW?
Ugh.
I'd rather be doing this instead...
Save me?
