My First Time

Spam, Egg, and Cheese Sandwich

A simple spam, egg and cheese sandwich because we didn’t have much food in the fridge. I’ve never been a big fan of sandwiches, bread in general but this was the bomb.

Shrimp and Veggie Boil Ingredients

I prepped dinner and Scruffy was going to do the cooking but since he wasn’t feeling too well, I stepped up. I’ve never had to do the boiling part for shrimp or crawfish boils so …

[2018] 117/365: Shrimp and Veggie BowlI

… I was a little skeptical when it came to doing the boiling since it has to come out a certain way for every single thing. I will say that it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be and am happy the presentation looks pretty great as well.

Best Damn Smoothie Bowl

[2018] 116/365: Pretty Smoothie Bowl

Guys … this is the prettiest smoothie bowl I’ve ever made! That gorgeous blue/purple colour from the frozen blueberries make my heart smile.

Rizzo on Rocky's Bed

I gave Rizzo a haircut while we were getting new doors put in. He’s such a great pup. He sits so patiently while I cut his hair or clean his ears. My baby!

Alameda Meat Market | Katy, Texas | Chicharron

When Mum and June got home, we changed and headed to dinner. We stopped by Alameda Meat Market for some beer since the dinner place is BYOB but when June and I saw the chicharrones we had to get some.

Cravin Cajun | Katy, Texas | Etouffee, Crawfish, Shrimp

Once we got to Cravin’ Cajun we put our order in and feasted! Etouffee, pounds of crawfish and shrimps. We even ordered extra and … kind of regretted afterwards because it was definitely too much food.

Smoothies, Crawfish, and Pups

Vega Protein, Fruit and Granola Smoothie

Ashy dropped me back off at home and I made myself a delicious Vega One Smoothie bowl adding in strawberries, granola, and dark chocolate nibs. It was so delicious and satisfying.

LA Crawfish | Katy, Texas | Crawfish and Shrimp

As the house was being worked on, I went to my last interview of the week and stopped by LA Crawfish for some goodness. I thought I deserved a treat for all these interviews lately. It was so yummy. Better now that it’s in season but still overcooked in my opinion.

99 Ranch Bakery Bun

I went and bought my family and Ashy loaves of coconut bread at 99 Ranch bakery and got myself a little something. I cut off a little bit to taste and it wasn’t bad. I like it better than the coconut since it’s not as sweet.

2018 | 115/365 | Rocky and Mellie Dee

Ashy asked a few times if he could keep Rizzo tonight and I agreed so Rocky feels like he’s gotta be my pup or something and has been chilling with me non-stop following me everywhere. My little baby. He misses his nephew!

Dinner with Peyton

by Leave a Comment

Breakfast Ramen

Breakfast of champions. The Chinese usually use macaroni and add a couple bok choy or something but I was too lazy to do so. Everything else is the same.

2018 | 114/365 | Luna and a Pig Ear

Ashy brought Luna today. She got to play with the other pups and enjoy a delicious treat. Except I’m not too certain if she did or not since she was mesmerized by the sound outside as the house was being fixed up. Rocky could have eaten it for all I know.

Potato, Egg, Spam and Harissa

Lunch I resulted in a potato and egg with spam and Harissa. Not too shabby.

Dinner at Rami and Caitlin's

I rode with Ashy to pick up Jamie from their house, stopped by Sprouts and headed over to Rami and Cailtin’s for dinner. Scruffy was already there playing with Peyton. It’s rare having this chance to do dinner with his whole side of the family so it was pretty nice.

Scruffy and I went back to his place and finished Netflix’s Lost In Space and now watching some other show before calling it a night.

There’s a Light at the End of This Tunnel …

Red Baron Pizza and Eggs

Our house started being fixed around 9 AM. After spending a bit of time with them I made myself a breakfast/lunch combo of eggs and Red Baron personal pizza. YUM!

Downtown Tunnels

I got ready and headed downtown for an interview. I was there early so I walked around a bit and found the downtown tunnels. I haven’t been here since 2007 so it brought back a lot of memories and hoping it could mean something more.

2018 | 113/365 | Ashy & Rudy House Fixing

After the interview, I went back home to find our house in this condition. They were working hard! They’ll be here all week.
