2018 | 185/365 | Homemade Pizzas

[2018] 185/365: Homemade Pizzas

Sissy, BIL and some of Scruffy’s family members came over for a July 4th celebration of food, beer and conversations. We made homemade dough and some store bought ones in case they failed. Overall everyone had a good time creating their own pizzas.

Smoked Ribs and Chicken

Ashy smoked some meat as well and the chicken was ON POINT this time. Everyone seemed to like the ribs but it wasn’t smokey enough for me.

We played a couple of games before we called it a night and I headed home. I’m dreading having to drive downtown especially with all the rain. Hopefully it won’t flood.

Carb Overload

July 3, 2018 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Corner Bakery | Houston, Texas | Farmer's Breakfast

Since it was Tuesday, no free breakfast, I went and grabbed my own at Corner Bakery. I was genuinely surprised that they didn’t put salt on the eggs which is a great plus for me. Funny story: one of the ladies at the place bought What-a-Burger and her manager made her put it in a Corner Bakery bag because it obviously looks bad to customers to see their own employees eating food from other places. But seriously? Who can eat the same thing every day?!

OG Tea | Sugar Land, Texas | Taro Smoothie

I went to Scruffy’s after work to start my July Fourth Festivities which is pretty much relaxing until tomorrow. I grabbed a Taro Smoothie from OG Tea when we went out to grab groceries for tomorrow.

2018 | 184/365 | Pasta Dinner

[2018] 184/365: Pasta Dinner

Saleh came over for dinner and we’re about to play Risk. It’s been awhile since I had a pasta dinner at Scruffy’s but the real winner on this plate? The Brussels sprouts. You know, those Green Giant bags you just pop into the microwave? The salt and pepper Brussels sprouts are my favourite. Everything else is covered in butter these days so it’s great to have a different flavour. Also, the garlic bread this time was fantastic. Not too certain what they did differently but I had two! .. Or maybe I was just starving.

Wax On, Wax Off

2018 | 183/365 | Hard Waxing

[2018] 183/365: Hard Waxing

Work went by pretty slow which is common when the holidays come up. It’s not that bad since we get a day off in the middle of the week but could have been better if we could have more days off, obviously.

I’m not too certain we will be swimming for the Fourth of July but since my new wax kit came in this weekend I took a stab at it today. I was a little worried that I’ll burn myself or rip off part of my skin or whatever else could go wrong but I was surprised that everything went smoothly. See what I did there? Hehe It was a little harder to do certain areas of my body by myself but practice makes perfect, right?

Best Dang Fried Chicken

2018 | 180/365 | Luna and Rizzo Cuddles

[2018] 180/365: Luna and Rizzo Cuddles

After work today I arrived at Scruffy’s and I was able to get in some cuddles with Luna and Rizzo. Some alone time where I watched YouTube videos and played my games.

Fried Chicken and Veggies

I made the veggies while Scruffy made the fried chicken – from scratch. And it tasted on point! Until the fryer broke resulting in some pieces not getting that second fry. The Brussels sprouts were pungent In a not so good way that we chucked them. They were bad but Ashy thought it was still good so we continued making them … good thing he realized after the bake, just how horrible they were. Scruffy’s conclusion is that he’d rather go and buy the dang chicken next time and that it wasn’t worth the time it took to make it. I disagree because I liked his more that other fried places but oh well.

Game Night

2018 | 179/365 | Sequence Board Game

[2018] 179/365: Sequence Board Game

Scruffy came over with Luna after work to have dinner with me and my family. After going to the pet store and Wal-Mart we headed home to play Sequence with Mum. She rarely plays games with us so it was a big win.

Scruffy took Rizzo home with him so it’ll be a night without my baby. But that also means not having to take him out in the morning. Yay!
