Let's Party!

The biggest game of the NFL season is this Sunday. Now, be ye a Panthers fan or a Broncos fan, we can agree that a party is in order. I have a few must haves and personal faves for a Super Bowl Party. 

  • Hot Wings - the hotter the better
  • Ranch Dip - for the blazing hot wings, of course 
  • Hot Dogs  (and fixings)
  • Chips and Salsa
  • Nacho Cheese Dip - this is a must have. No really, folks show up looking for this stuff. LOL
  • Deviled Eggs - YAASSSSS!!!
  • Drinks - both alcoholic and non-alcoholic (unless you don't have to work on Monday morning)
  • Sweets - yeah, just need SOMETHING preferably a CHOCOLATEY SOMETHING
  • Fruit/Cheese/Veggie Tray
That's pretty much what my menu will be for Sunday. I talked to a few people and they are basically having Sunday dinner leftovers. That works, too. I mean I wouldn't turn down ribs, macaroni and cheese and collard greens at a SB Party! 

I'm thinking about throwing in this dish that has some shrimp and Andouille sausage. Can put it over some grits (of course that would mean I'd have to make grits, too. Hmmm???) Or they could make some version of a Shrimp (and sausage) Po'Boy



Okay before this list keeps growing, what are you guys having at your party this weekend?

Oscar Chronicles - All By Myself

  Hola, mis amigos. I'm not going to ask if you missed me because - well, I already know you did. But more than that, I'm not going to ask because I'm sad, angry and hungry. Okay, perhaps I'm always interested in some snacks...Anyway, your Oscar is sad. Why? Is because a couple of weeks ago mi persona favorito decided to remodel his room. No really! He took all of the things out of the room - even my bed! At first I was angry thinking that he was kicking me out! He even took down his posters and emptied his closet! But then I started seeing him bringing some stuff back. Several pairs of his zapatos, some shirts and chaquetas. Some things he even put in the basura! Things that were too small or too old - you know how they do, right? So yes,  A MAJOR CLEANING. His room was like SUPER CLEAN.  He and his Papa also bought in new stuff. New zapatos, shirts, pants. The new stuff he put into a new bag. Nice! Good storage. It even has wheels!! So he can move it around a lot easi...

Being Strong Is Not for the Weak

Sometimes you may get tired and fed up. I mean come on, life has a way of testing you…and I mean way worse than any pop quiz you might have had. Sometimes the test starts small. Broke a nail after a fresh manicure? Hit your shin on the corner of the bed? (ouch). Then maybe it ramps up to you dropping your brand new cell phone face down on the pavement…while trying to put on the screen protector. Ugh! That sucks, right? Then there are household bills...sure you have some, right?  Yeah, they eat away a good chunk of your paycheck but you’re managing. Then a major appliance dies…then some shingles fall off your roof.. Sucks but ok. It seems like one thing after another after another. Sigh... but somehow you’re standing strong and making do, holding on. And then…car issues start happening…flat tires, brakes need replacing and then transmission blows! What?!! But you’ve got to be strong right? You’re an adult and you can and have to deal with these things. You can manage, right? Yeah? ...

Lessons Learned

You know, some people are just born lucky. No wait- hear me out! There are those people who could eat their weight in pizza and burgers and never gain an ounce...or worse, lose a pound or two. There are those people who can read a book once- cover to cover, mind you - and be able to site it word for word, down to the page the section came from. (Wouldn't that be a nifty skill to have around exam time?) There are those people who always seem to have the best EVERYTHING - families, jobs, homes, cars, wardrobes, dogs, friends, parking spaces! The list is endless. And there are those who for whatever reason, they never seem to encounter a time when things truly go wrong. Am I one of these people? Do any of the above fit the description of my life? With the exception of having the best family - cause let's face I do - nope. And is that okay? No, it's GREAT! If life was perfect, with no ups and downs, goodness how boring would that be? What stories would I have to tell ...
