Around the World in 15 Days

September 2nd, 2009

London was awesome… except that Craig left after two days.  It’s not as bad as you think… I mean, yes I was left in Europe, but that hurts your pride more than anything – after a day of heart break, I got mad and then I took a deep breath and moved on.   Read the rest of this entry »

Geaux Tigers! 2009 College World Series Champs!

June 27th, 2009

Amanda sent me this awesome Recipe:
LONGHORN GUMBO

1) Start with some Super-Regional seasoned RICE 
2) Carefully move from the back burner in Baton Rouge to the hot stove in Omaha 
3) Add some VIRGINIA country ham – do so quickly because it doesn’t stay fresh for long
4) Season with a double dose of pig fat - RAZORBACK fat that is.
5) Slowly bring to a boil in a heat index of 107
6) Then slowly add LONGHORN meat from Austin, TX
7) Cook for 11 innings on the first day 8)  Let cool for a day
9) Then bring to a boil and blow the lid off on day 3!

This is a tried and true recipe and one that’s sure to tantalize the taste buds of Tiger Fans everywhere!

Numb

January 16th, 2009

I’m handling everything pretty well or so it seems. When I left, I feared that I’d be occupied 24/7 with missing Craig and my family and friends. Although I think about them a lot, I’m not in agony over being gone. Read the rest of this entry »
