Life and Stuff...!!!

Bonjour Foodies,

It's been awhile since I last did a blog post. I want to do better this year with those but life can really get in the way sometimes.I'm gonna try to start posting at least once a week. If I'm lucky I hope to start blogging more than that but I'm gonna be pretty busy this year. What with two jobs and possibly some schooling this year.

On a happier note, I am five books in to my goal of reading twenty-five books in 2015. I'm really proud of myself because I have been finding time to read. I think I let go of learning a new language this year. I was trying but life seems to like to slap me in the face a lot and take me down a peg or two. I guess life is funny that way. It tears you down to see what you can handle and then lets you pick back up the pieces.

In other news, I was with the new guy and I broke up with him twice because I'm very indecisive and a little scared of new beginnings and such that I ran away twice. It also had to do with my ex acting like he wanted us again but never fully saying it himself. I decided the second time that if he wont say it to me then there's no point in trying. If  the new guy ever gives me another chance which I know I do not deserve at all. I would try harder this time and not let my fears chase me away.

I guess a lot has happened these last few months. I dyed some of the underneath parts of my hair red. It's faded now but I enjoyed it while it lasted. I'm thinking of doing it again before I go down to South Carolina with my little sister. Our trip is two weeks away and I'm excited and nervous. I've never driven that far so I'm a little worried. I also bought a baby cornsnake. I named it Holo after the character from Spice and Wolf, one of my favorite animes. I think that's all that's happened that's really worth mentioning.

I have not cooked anything worthy of mentioning lately. Its kind of upsetting that I don't get to do this more often.

Deviled Eggs...!!!

Bonjour Foodies,

So today my little sister and I made deviled eggs. They are so good. My mother makes them and we wanted ours to taste as close to hers as possible. I never seem to be able to get them to taste that good. Today I think that changed with the help of my little sister. I don't know how but they taste exactly like hers.






I don't have a exact recipe for this, we kind of just guessed and did the best we could. You'll need mayo, apple cider vinegar, dry mustard powder, paprika, a dozen eggs and yellow mustard. The brand really doesn't matter. I used mostly store brands because the are cheaper to buy than name brand.





First we boiled the water and then placed the eggs in the water for fifteen minutes. Once they were done boiling we poured out the water. We placed the eggs in ice water to chill the eggs faster and make the peeling process easier.


 

Then we cracked and separated the white from the yolks. Then we began the process of making the filling with the yolks and the items above.

This is a great recipe for parties or fun quick snacks.
