More Coding Lessons

March 27, 2018 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

This is Asianized quail. Parents buy it from some grocery store already made. They look like they are little people. Sometimes, they are legs are bent more and it looks like they are kung-fu fighting. hehe

It’s SO good. Better than chicken in my opinion. Great brain fuel for when I was getting tired from studying.

[2018] 086/365: Advanced Excel

I finished Python, started Advanced Excel and am now on SQL. I bought a Linux one to learn it was so horrible, I had to ask for a refund. Oy vey. Did I mention I have an interview coming up and I need to learn all these different ways of coding? And I don’t know anything except SQL, and even then, I need the internet for help. I’m freaking out, but I guess if I fail, at least I had a good mock interview.

P.S. Today marks two years officially with Scruffy. We aren’t able to celebrate tonight but we have something planned in the near future and I cannot wait. I’m hoping everything works out and it actually happens. Fingers crossed. Regardless, I have presents wrapped up for him already and I cannot wait for him to open them! Eeep! Happy Two Years, Hon-ay! haha

Learning Python

[2018] 085/365: Python Online Classes

Guys, I haven’t taken a class in so long that my brain was going all crazy. Listening to someone talk constantly was a bore but thankfully this dude is energetic enough to get me going.

It’s been a good few days and I now have less than three hours left on this course until I get some fancy virtual certificate.

Then I’ll be hitting up some other courses in hopes that it’ll help me with any job searches.

Fingers crossed for me, y’all!

Songkran Thai Grill | Sugar Land, Texas

Scruffy and I started out the day at Andrew’s then late lunch at Songkran Thai Grill.

We were going to order entrees until we saw the menu for all-you-can-eat dim sum, Thai style, for $14.95 per person.

We over ordered and are all stuffed to the brim. Their green beans and coconut green curry chicken were the most outstanding dishes.

I went home with Rizzo afterwards. This is him getting shut eye while sitting up in his booster car seat.

After much bouncing around he decided this was the best route for his head. Too funny.

The internet is out at my house so it’s all old school DVDs. Currently watching a Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen movie then maybe restart One Tree Hill. Hmm … Good night everyone!

Kura Revolving Sushi Bar | Sugar Land, Texas

March 24, 2018 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Scruffy and I had lunch at Kura Revolving Sushi Bar.

They are so high tech. Touchscreens, conveyor belts, dish counting, etc. The germaphobe in me wonders if anyone touches but doesn’t grab the dish but the germaphobe in me is also happy that they are all covered.

Some of the dishes we got. The black dish was not on the conveyer belt. Special ordered. Also, if you wanted any green plate ones made just for you, you could order on the touchscreen as well.

After fifteen green dishes went into the dish counting system, the touchscreen contraption sounded and out popped a prize.

What a great idea! Especially for little kids. I got little sushi stickers which are super adorable. I’m going to use this in my planner to commemorate this day. Best. Date. Ever.

Afterward, we went home and grabbed all three pups, Rizzo, Luna, and Miles. I made Rizzo have a fast photoshoot. How adorable is he?!

[2018] 083/365: Rizzo Attacks At The Dog Park

Maybe not so adorable after seeing this picture. I promise, no one got hurt! This is how he plays, teeth and all. I love how the little pit bull pup looks. Kinda like, “Um, hey, you’re overreacting.”

When we got back, we saw this squirrel sitting like this for a good two minutes in the driveway staring back at us.

After bathing all the dogs, and taking showers ourselves, Scruffy relaxed with some video games and I relaxed with some online Python classes. Then Andrew came over, we ordered Pizza Hut delivery, and have been sitting on the couch watching telly since.

We lead an interesting life, I know. I’m ready for bed, but first, more Python learning/telly watching.

Home Chef | Beef & Pepper Tamale Pie

Home Chef Ingredients for Beef & Pepper Tamale Pie

[2018] 082/365: Home Chef’s Beef & Pepper Tamale Pie

I forgot to put the recipe card in the picture but you know how that could look so … let’s pretend it’s there, kcool.

Our second and last Home Chef meal was made for a late lunch.

Home Chef | Beef & Pepper Tamale Pie

Scruffy thought the tamale part would be made of masa but … we were duped with cornbread. So it’s pretty much like a chili with cornbread on top type of deal.

Home Chef | Beef & Pepper Tamale Pie

Surprisingly, not bad. I even suggested that next time Scruffy made his “famous” chili, we should put some cornbread on the leftovers the next day and make something like this.

Overall, not disappointed with Home Chef. If I was in a funk or was too lazy to go out and get the ingredients and measure them out, I’ll probably do this again. But maybe not for the price. It’s way too expensive. But this does help open doors for other meals in the future.

I want to try other meal service deliveries. Does anyone have any codes for discounts? If you want, I can send you an invite for Home Chef and we can BOTH get $30 off. At least, that’s how I understood it so …yeah.

Scruffy’s parents got home from India tonight. They all had tuna sandwiches and I had a tuna salad. YUM! It was perfect with all the heavy foods we have been eating this week.

All the spices Ashy hauled back from India is pictured above. It’s so crazy but I’m so excited to make some Indian dishes!!
