Catch-Up

I'm leaving for London tomorrow so I figured now was as good a time as any to catch up on some blogging before beginning a series of travel-related entries! If any parts of this entry don't make sense please excuse me...the changing weather is making my head feel all weird. Ew.

My camera was storing some pictures I'd been meaning to blog about for some time so I've decided to toss them all in one entry...here goes...


I don't even remember when I made this meal now...it had to be almost a month ago. Blackened beef stir fry! I think this was the first time I really made something without any help at all from Shane. I'm getting the hang of this cooking thing! Now I need to make sure I keep doing it...


Ah yes...the Mohegan Sun trip in honor of Hillary and Jessica's birthdays. We enjoy making trips to Johnny Rocket's and playing slots. You can tell from these pictures that we obviously had the best table in the house.


Mmmmm....public restrooms are so appetizing.


Being very sneaky...


Here are Hillary and Jess in the brand-spanking-new Casino of the Wind. It was pretty and didn't smell quite as strongly of smoke...yet. The new Margaritaville restaurant is in there too. I have to admit though...I found that place a bit scary. There's this giant spinning monstrosity in the middle of the bar's ceiling above a huge glowing blender. Very strange.


If you look just past me in this picture you can see a giant wall of water...pretty cool. I'm pretty sure we technically weren't supposed to take these pictures....hmmmmmm...


And here is my most recent culinary creation...baked mac and cheese with bacon and caramelized onions. By far my favorite thing so far.

Unfortunately that's all I have the energy right now. This was a painfully boring and pointless entry but now I've at least uploaded the pictures I've been meaning to for a while now.

I hate changing pressure systems and shifting weather. I have serious "barometer head" today. Can't...think....anymore.....must......continue....PACKING! The next time I blog it will be from across the Atlantic Ocean! Woo hoo!
