I said BURR! It's cold in here!

As Kirsten Dunst said in Bring It On (weird that it was 15 years ago and I was just about to start the 4th grade...yeah I'm a "youngin' " or as my co-workers call me "lil pup everyone wants to see"... Annnnnywaaaayss!

It's cold.  No, not cold as hell, because well, hell is supposed to be hot and not cold as balls unless there is something I don't know (if you took that sexually HA!)  if not wellllll... than you were thinking like basketballs/footballs that sorta thing? If so basketballs can get hot when left in the summer sun.  Here in don'tchya-know land of Minnesnowta or as my man's mom has called it Minne-colda it's still winter and still snowing.  Temperatures at about -10 degree's (today) which is warm compared to what December/January was like more often than not but still quite ridiculous.

My man loves summer mostly as he puts it "you wear more summer dresses and all your bright fun colors in summer... and you look good in a bikini, bonfires, longer nights sitting on our balcony enjoying wine or beer" that and we go camping every chance we can!

I am more partial to Autumn (no that does not make me a "basic bitch") although I do love making my famous pumpkin bars with maple cream cheese frosting,[recipe will come this year, I PROMISE] I do NOT and will not wear Uggs- waste of money for me to spend when I have over $1000/bills a month{YAY for being a grown-up/adult, am I right?! NOT}, and when I have a BOGO for Caribou Coffee I go get Pumpkin Hot Chocolate- I can't have coffee, long story- for another time.

I really do want spring and summer though.  I have SO much clothes for those months (I love color) to wear... another reason this woman needs a walk in closet.

Back in December I went to visit one of my best friends in the universe (in Indiana) and I had forgotten how nice it is in December.  Now to me it's nice out when it's 35-45 degrees out and  I can wear one of my really thick hoodies and call it good with Jeans a t-shirt and boots.   Granted I was there a hell of a lot in 2010- earlyish 2011- again another story, another time.

In my man and I's old place we never turned the heat on once (we had lived on second floor and had it coming from below and above us) and now if the window is open just a crack it's perfect, other place sometimes was the WHOLE way opened.  Trying to be classy/professional in skirts is getting annoying when it's this cold.

This week on Monday the man and I's first official dindin (dinner/supper) was amaze balls!  He had crab legs, I had maple salmon made garlic biscuits and mashed taters... We definitely om-nom-nom'd that.  Made me feel special to do that for him (d'aaaw) - cooking for him is a way I show my love and NO he does not think a woman;s place is the kitchen

Tuesday- Pizza Casserole (recipe some other time, you will get it not to worry)

Wednesday- cold winter night classic = soup and grilled cheese

Tonight(Thursday)- Buffalo Chicken Wraps and apple slices:

Here's the Recipe for that(you'll learn I take after my grandma and make many, many portions):

Filling:

• 6-8 chicken tenderloins/2-4 chicken breasts: ready to be cooked, cook 'em bad boys up or you can do the ready n' serve (I won't judge)
• 1/2 cup ranch dressing (Hidden Valley Homestyle makes it really creamy and delicious)
• 1.5 cup of your favorite buffalo sauce
• mix the sauces (if you can have them marinade over night EVEN BETTER)
• mix slather your chicken in the sauce mix and heat in oven at 350 degrees for 20 minutes, take out of oven

...add cheese- sharp cheddar or mozzarella go rreeaaalllly well with this, lettuce, tomato (we would have added tomato if we had it), any extra ranch or buffalo sauce

Flour Tortillas to put it in, and BAM! you made buffalo chicken wraps.  Pretty damn easy for those who like easy meals (which I make a lot of since I work 50/hours a week)


As far as apple slices go... get an apple you like and cut it up for you and your loved ones.

Hey you, with the face!

Mmmmmkay... So this is the very first blog post. Here's the deal: This post has NOTHING you want to read but will anyways because it's amazing, it's simply the first post of randomness and who we are.

I(the female in the relationship) will be writing way more than "the man". Now when I say "the man" I am referring to my man. My hunk of love, grizzly bearded, eats anything I make him, sexy like if you do the goofy and silly-ness of Jim Carey, (the man's reason behind why he likes being goofy- aside from his mom) coming up with weird songs and just odd like Weird Al Yankovic, Ryan Goslings facial structure, Lance Bass's green eyes, Ryan Reynolds upper body... and they all had a baby = the love of my life. :]

Well... we got our own little place- just us, no roommates anymore!!! We have a few things here and there still to get from our old place but otherwise we did it! -WOAH! We have been together as a couple (*insert mushy gooshy crap*) since halfway through 2012. We met at the end of 2008, became best of friends in the last few months in 2009.

  We moved in together after we had been together for 1 year and aaalllmost 3.5 months. Which some may say is crazy, the way we see it, meant to be. It still to this day, is like a sleep over with him. I get giggly when it's time for bed(98.999% of the time, unless I am wicked tired and just want to sleep) and get to snuggle up next to him (he's a radiator and i'm a freeze baby) and if one of us falls asleep before we say our good nights (as I realized last night) the other will wake your ass up because "you forgot my goodnight kiss" which I love!

We hail from the Twin Cities in Minnesota, don't cha know? Noooo, ohhh yeaaahh you betchya, ya do now! We also have Canadian, Irish, Scottish, Italian, Norwegian, Polish, Ukrainian in our blood streams.

Here are some quick things to know about us:

1. I LOVE to cook/bake... he will eat it (as I stated above)

2. camping is one of our favorite things to do, together

3. We already have talked about the BIGGER PICTURE

4. Football, Hockey, Baseball and Lacrosse(MN team)... yeah we rep our home turf

5. we're nerds. Not as hardcore as some, but we are hardcore in our own little ways.

6. we love movies. Going to movies, getting movies and raiding the $5 movie bin -like we are going through a worm hole

7. He is a grease monkey when it comes to cars (which to me is pretty damn shmexcy)

8. I'm an event and wedding planner and also work in residential real-estate

9. The man works in his career field of Promotional Marketing

10. we swear, like sailors and aren't ashamed of it- and this blog will have strong language from time to time

11. staying in shape is big for us (not like body builder way but healthy way)

12. It's pretty safe to say we love cheese. Both don't like blue cheese, and I don't really like American unless it's my only option...

13. I am a kid at heart, and also kind of a hippy

14. He is definitely a kid at heart (majority of the time)

15. We love to laugh, and live to love

16. I am a smart shopper, end of story. someday I WILL have a walk in closet && pantry.

17. We both support LGBT, if you have a problem with that, you can fuck off and I won't give a damn

18. We are dog people, mostly because we are allergic to cats

19. We're weird, if you saw the stuff that we do when it's just us you would want to lock us up in a padded room (no I am NOT refferring to sex)

20. We are the two you'll see in pictures making weird faces

...So yeah, that's about it for the first post.  I will defintely be posting once a week sometimes more than that depending on what is going on.  You can love or hate it but if you're going to hate, go away!
