Let me just start off by stating my position on all vermin. They've clearly been confused by the homo sapien tradition of a "welcome" mat on a doorstep. However, I show no mercy to these vile jive turkeys.
My mat does not and will not welcome you, you nastay thang. Humans only.
On a tastier note; food. I love food. [I was going for the whole "I love lamp" mood... didn't work.] I had to take a picture of this amazing green pepper before I ended it's superlative and [literal] spotless life. Like that's how in love with food I am [even though I do eventually and happily eat any and all]. This pepper and a can of tuna [ew] gave me one of our new favorite dinners; tuna burgers!! WOW. You really cannot taste/smell the tuna. Better than a turkey burger, cow burger, weaksauce boca/veggie burgers [which are filled with cheese in case you forgot], etc. Cheapest kind, healthiest kind, yummiest kind. [Recipe is below :] ].
Prefacing the most wonderful Easter Sunday was lots of work and lots of play :]. +Malori and I had an amazing night at our complex with free dinner and my FAVE Disney movie [while outside!], Brave! [Rhymed. NBD.] +Zane and I went to +Malori and +Kristian's for an awesome game night with our newfound friends, Haleigh and Mike.
+Malori and I got more clients for The Crate Escape! Spent lots of time planning a LECOM event with my SAA [Student Advocate Association] presidency, especially with my girl +Kailey. LOTS of time went into making new tee shirt designs, meetings, prepping the food, making flyers,etc. It was most definitely worth the work! We had a perfect turn out, great food, lots of beach volleyball and ping pong, and, most importantly for our hardworking significant others; rest.
And then it was Sunday. Easter Sunday! Yay! It was packed and perfect.
We ate our favorite breakfast; pancakes. The kind that you don't regret after consuming mass quantities. [Recipe below :]] After church we had a Resurrection egg hunt. 12 eggs, filled with scriptures and figurines representing why we celebrate Easter. Then, we had a lovely dinner that took my tastebuds to yummy town. Marinated pork chops, veggies, homemade [fat-free] gravy, rosemary potatoes and, of course, homemade carrot cake [exhibit H of food/cooking obsession]. After dinner, we had SUCH an awesome egg hunt with the Balles. +Zane and I filled our plastic eggs with the candy we like and dyed hardboiled eggs [which failed miserably] and the Balles did the same [minus the failing part].
We each left our eggs in our apartment, went into the other apartment and hid the eggs! Then, we hunted :]. Hah we still have not found half of them; whaterr.
Serves 4
3 ripe and mashed bananas
6 eggs
1 cup shredded coconut
1 tsp ground cinnamon
Mix, pour onto skillet, serve. Delish with sugar-free maple syrup, clover honey, sugar-free jam.

This is great! 1. I am so impressed with your planning skills for the Lecom event! The T-shirts, activities, food. You are a born PLANNER! I love the Crate Escape idea-so clever. I need to meet your friends! They sound great. I still cannot believe you live in FLORIDA. Basically paradise.
ReplyDeleteLove you sis!
I loved everything except for the fat free gravy thing. NO WAY that tasted good...
ReplyDeleteHey there,
ReplyDeleteNot sure who this is; that is so awesome that you made what we ate for Easter dinner! The gravy was absolutely delicious. We used left over marinade from the pork and added whole wheat flour. That's how it's fat free. It enhanced the marinade and also tasted great on our rosemary potatoes!
Thanks,
Mary
