Old-Fashioned

No, not the drink lol. Mommy and me have been trying to sort through recipes so it can be easier to find what we need no matter what the dish may be and a lot of the recipes fall into a “multi-category” section. The only way to know how to save on time long-term is by copying the extra recipes down so there can be a copy of every recipe in its own categories. While I could type up those recipes a lot faster, mommy and me are both “old-fashioned” and prefer to copy them down with pen and paper. Not nearly as fast but at least we won’t have to worry about electronics getting wet or batteries dying ! I’ll be excited when all the copying is done though !

Looking to expand skills

I always want to improve my knowledge and skills so when I was walking through Wal-Mart with mommy and saw these Activity Kits from Tasty & Wilson, I really wanted them ! Mommy was sweet & supportive enough to buy them for me. I haven’t opened the boxes up yet but they look like they should help me learn to make candy, and how to work with royal icing, fondant, buttercream frosting, and I even grabbed their Succulent Garden Cookie Kit just so that I could start to learn how to sculpt plants.

I know money’s getting tighter for us so for mommy to spend that money on those kits, just helps motivate me that much more to get better and better at this blog and just making food in general !

I wasn’t paid in any form to promote Tasty or Wilson.

Take care everybody !

Happy Halloween !

Hope everybody’s having a great time. I stayed home with mommy and watched Halloween/horror movies, read a horror story, and passed out candy to trick or treaters. I think we had 4 or so different groups come and sadly that was more than last year ! It was so cute though when this little girl showed up dressed as a Ghostbuster. She looked so happy about wearing the costume and she was so polite ! She did cough in her hand though before grabbing candy with the same hand. I couldn’t help but have the movie Contagion run through my mind when that happened !

Stay safe tonight, take care everybody !

Nala’s not doing so good.

Our vet gave her a long-term shot so she’d be able to eat better and it was working for a bit but now she seems to be going downhill a bit. I just don’t know if she’s gonna make it through November. October just feels like it’s ending on a depressing note instead of the happy awesome note that I was hoping for.

I’d give mommy the world if I could.

I can’t begin to describe how much mommy’s done for me in the past and even now. She always tries to support whatever my passion is, she sticks up for me, she’s trying to be healthier so she can be here for me and the pets as long as possible and even when we’re stressed constantly about money, and she still wants me to get back in the kitchen making desserts because she believes life is too short to not be doing the things you love. She’s my best friend. I’m afraid she thinks it’s too late for her to have the dream life she’s always wanted but despite that, she’s trying to help as much as she can to make sure I can have a happy life worth living. I really want to become successful so that I can do as much as possible to make her life happy and relaxed.

Wonky dvr

I have to ask, does anyone have a dvr that could say you were 89% full but after an update will say that you’re now at like 94%? ‘Cause we went a couple of days without an update and got down to 90%. Apparently we finally had an update ’cause I went to the dvr today and it said we jumped up to 99% ! Looks like I’ll be watching recordings all day today just so it doesn’t reach 100%.

My back

I don’t know what caused it but my lower back hurts so much when I’m on my feet. I’m on couch rest until my back gets better. I hate leaving the cooking to mommy but she’d rather do the cooking than see me in pain. The sooner my back gets back to normal the better !

Bacon Whisperer

I was cooking up some bacon for a bacon cheeseburger and gave mommy some strips to snack on. When she ate that first strip of bacon, she thought it was so delicious that she called me the “bacon whisperer” lol ! I’m pretty sure who’ll be in charge of cooking any future bacon.

Changes

Hey everybody, this is Lisa. Mommy’s decided not to be involved with the blog. She has so much to deal with and stepping away from the blog makes things a little bit easier for her.

I’ve been trying to figure out what direction I want to take this blog in with it just being me now. I’ve decided that any new recipes posted are only going to be ones that I find delicious . There will be days that the recipes I make don’t turn out to be worth posting. On those days, I’ll still be posting, just won’t be a recipe.

To the current 117 followers, thanks for sticking with me despite going lengths of time without posting.

Hope y’all will enjoy what I have to post in the future. Take care y’all !
