About Me

My photo
I am a student just trying to graduate and living life. I have a wonderful family, great friends, and an awesome boyfriend. Oh and I have a precious pup that I love so much. I love reading a good book, playing board games/cards, and decorating for anything. Working out makes me feel so much better, but it's a battle everyday. I've been in school for what seems like forever and will finally graduate in May. I am also a firm believer in "Everything Happens for a Reason". All in all as its beens said plenty of times before- I'm not perfect BUT I'm me! :)

Mystery Jello

Another weekend has passed, but it was quite the successful one because Trevor and I got a free meal!  Thanks to Ms. Amy O'Quinn! I used to work with Amy, but she had to find another job due to her hectic school schedule.  She got herself a job at Logan's Roadhouse!  It's a brand new Logan's, (just opened yesterday) so their managers decided to have a pre-opening party type thing.  Amy got to invite 3 guests to attend this pre-opening and we got a free meal! Thanks for the invite Amy, Trevor and I always appreciate free stuff! :)  Afterwards we took it upon ourselves to go out on the town!  We had a fun time and definitely need to do it again!


So Sunday afternoon, Trevor decided he wanted some jello.  He started boiling the water and then decided that he was going to start cooking fajitas for supper and left me in charge to finish the jello. (Which the fajitas were yummy-licious, but that's beside the point)  
Jello.
 Easy enough.  For some reason when Trevor puts me in charge of something, I second guess myself on everything.  It's not that I'm scared of him, it's more of a "I-don't-want-to-hear-about-it-for-2-hours-if-I-do-something-wrong-kinda-thing." If I mess something up its not like I get a, "Oh, it's okay.  Not a big deal", like I would like to get.  It's this on-going process for a good hour or so.  Anyway, it was jello how hard could it be?  I made sure I even stirred it for the exact 2 minutes.  Not to mention I was also supposed to add strawberries and kiwi.  A couple hours later, Trevor was ready to eat his jello.  Wasn't ready.  I informed him the box said 4 hours and he said that the batch he made the other day set up in 2 hours.  We left it alone until the next day.  He called me and asked if I checked out my jello.  (Of course it's "my" jello when it messes up and "his" when it's perfect)  I unfortunately had and still just some liquid jello.  So this is where it began: "How in the world do you mess up jello?? It's the easiest thing ever".  I started to think the same thing: "HOW DO YOU mess up jello?!"  I took it upon myself to rely the answer to my question to good ol' Google.  I learned that KIWI, among a bunch of other fruits, CAN CAUSE YOUR JELLO NOT TO SET! BOO-YA! 
I knew I couldn't just screw jello up.  
Google, thank you for making me feel better about myself and for providing proof to boo-ya in my boyfriend's face.  I knew I loved you when I first met you.  :)

& this is life as I know it...
