I got the idea from an old 'Chips Ahoy' commercial that they used to play when I was a kid (at least 10-15 years ago).

Soooo good. Puts an icecream sandwich to shame.

Duh Nuh Nuh Nuh Rat Cave, Rat Cave, RAT CAVE

My SO says my dogs kinda resembles a giant rat (which, I cannot dispute) so we started calling her crate the Rat Cave (like Bat Cave...Batman.....get it).

This is her lair. She's sad right now cause her blankets and pillows are in the wash.



She likes a blanket over it (hence the cave part) and I just started keeping my clothes on top cause it's a good use of space in my tiny apartment. Also, I'm aware that my clothes in a pile resemble a hobo version of Joseph's coat of many colors ;)

This is my pet food storage situation



Lemon's is in the orange container and Kitty's is in the (sterilized) Fresh Step container.

I wasn't using mass dispel or an addon! Casting single dispels via keyboard.

This holy pally had to be the laziest player I've seen in awhile. He wasn't even dispelling me when I was getting stunned or silenced.

Hit 80 on this guy 2 weeks ago and I already look like a badass.



Also, Bayoubilly was possibly the shittest/best NES game ever.

Ony needs to drop my moose ears though, for maximum cute factor.

Until I get them I'll just continue to pretend with my lvl 70 SMV helm (that doesn't count as RPing!!!!!).



Spicy!

Sriracha (I love this stuff!), green onions, scrambled eggs.

Water from in an old Taco Bell cup, eaten with a spoon so my lazy ass didn't have to do dishes.

I'm so hungover today from the world's cheapest wine, needed chillies!

I recently started eating my tuna with this cheap ass (pictured) horse radish mayo. Omfg, a tuna explosion in my mouth.

Also pictured, my $5.99 12 pack beer. It's super good, if you have a Fresh and Easy near you I recommend that you try it. That's like $0.50 a beer!


Egg thing...

I guess it's technically a scramble?





Eggs, spicy Italian sausage, potatoes, onion, garlic, green pepper, milk, red pepper flakes, spices.

Smothered in Frank's.

I like apple and my SO likes cherry. He also likes to microwave his but I eat myine at room temperature.

So sugary I could only eat half, had to save the other half for later.

We've been broke as hell so I only bought some of these cause they were on sale for 10/$6 or something like that.

It's a great snack! The label says so.

The Count!

You unfortunately can't buy Chocula in a lot of the US, so, I had to buy a bunch when I went to Alabama to visit my dad and bring it home with me to AZ.

What you're favorite things that you just can't get in your area?

Haha, I felt like a crackpot with a suitcase full of Count Chocula, but, it was so worth it!

I hate the new box design though, it used to look so much better.



This is the Count that I know and love.

Post pics of your own sauce drawer! I know you guys have them too.

Also, I was remembering how when I moved I totally cleaned out the sauce drawer and took it all with me. I hated my roomates and like 75% of it was mine anyway. Suck it suckas! The sauce is mine!

The classiest thing I have in there by far is a few of those indivigual sized blackberry jams from Cracker Barrel. Omg I love those.

I picked out some of my faves after the cut )

Enough said.

I also like that those crappy processed cheese slices come in "cheddar" now. My grocery store even has a store brand swiss.





The Result )

From a Zero to a Hero. 10 cent a serving, vegan repurposed food

So, after hearing about lentil soup being the nectar of the gods to poor people (cheap, nutritious, blah, blah, blah) I decided to give it a go. The entire cost for the pot was like $3 I think.

My first attempt rendered a super thick, super bland....sludge. It in no way resembles soup. I used about two or three times the amount of lentils that I should have,in retrospect, because I am totally unfamiliar with cooking them.

I basically have this 10lb vat of totally inedible "food" in my fridge. I'm too cheap to throw anything away, so, I experimented.

Homemade-ish Chicken Pot Pie

[info]lovethatlovage
I went to the store with the intention of buying a frozen potpie, but, I'm typically really dissatisfied with the crust to filling ratio. The last time I got one I felt like the damn thing was 80% crust.

So, I grabbed a bunch of stuff and just made one myself. I did however use a roll of Pillsbury Crescent rolls for the crust.

The highlight was the southern style chicken gravy I made for the filling. I'd say this was totally worth the effort, one hundred times better then a frozen potpie.



Pics of the Process and the Finished Product...very pic heavy )

$9 a liter vodka and store-brand slim fast, self esteem in a bottle!

I was out of juice and wanted a mixed drink, extra trash points for the fact that I don't buy slimfast for weight loss reasons. I just like to drink chocolate when I'm too lazy to chew.
