Food Photo(s) Friday - Pizza Night!

Jonhnny and I love pizza. I know it's not good for us, but I needed a quick idea for dinner and it was Pizza Hut. Unfortunately, it was pricier than it used to be and I was stuck paying $45 (tip and delivery charge included) for 2 large pizzas, 8 wings (ranch NOT included), a liter of Pepsi, and 5 breadsticks. It used to be cheaper than that, but oh well... Here are some photos of our dinner.


$45 for this... WAHHHH?!
And I HATE Pepsi... I was forced to drink it since it was the closest thing to my beloved Coke


8 Medium Buffalo Wings


Breadsticks w/ Marinara


Supreme Pizza


Large Pizza w/ Sausage, Onions, Mushrooms

I hate how Pepsi keeps trying to make a guest appearance in 4/5 of my photos. That bastard...

A Good Sunday

I've been lacking in posting lately. Super sorry! >_< I had an AMAZING Easter Sunday. First off, I had a lunch date with two amazing foodies Linda (Girl Eats World) and Michelle (Foodie the New 40). I hope one day I'm able to be as great of a blogger as them =). We opted for Zed's since the three of us have never been there before. There was a lovely bunny there to greet us and make us laugh while we ate our brunch. There was a brunch buffet and we also got mimosas... The mimosas probably made us a little more rowdy, but it was so much fun! There were so many highlights to our three hour lunch.
  • Anthony Bourdain came into the conversation (Linda & Michelle LOVE him!) and a picture of him holding a bone up to his wee wee was brought up... Picture here: NOT SAFE FOR WORK! It was SCANDALOUS. But oh so funny.
  • Linda had Michelle and I as the stars of her vlog (VEDA day #24) Below... ;]


  • Michelle was a tad bit hesitant to be on camera.. She said maybe she could do puppets with her fingers. Linda suggested using the clean socks in her car that she keeps handy for bowling. Super prepared Linda cracked us up with this bit of info.
  • This leads to the next topic... Linda saying her boyfriend had "smelly balls"... SMELLY BALLS?! Yes, smelly bowling balls... Cinnamon, in fact ;] (Not what you were thinking huh? DIRTY MIND!) Harhar..
  • I had no clue what sweetbreads were.. So I asked. Michelle searched it on her adorable iPad and as she read it, it said sweetbreads is a culinary name for the thymus, pancreas, various glands, and sometimes testicles. Ahhh.. A new word for balls; sweetbreads. "I got your sweetbreads right here, buddy" LOL
  • Lots of laughter with two beautiful, amazing women.. Women I'm blessed to be in the presence of =) 
Some photos from brunch


Biscuits & Gravy, Grilled Chicken & Green Beans, Scrambled Eggs, Shrimp & Grits


Mac & Cheese
SO GOOD!


French Toast, Caesar Salad, Crème Brûlée/Key Lime Brûlée (Wasn't sure.. LOL), Sausage Link & Scrambled Eggs, Grilled Chicken & Green Beans (again.. haha), Mashed Potatoes


This weird key lime crème brûlée thing again haha

The food was ehh ok. It wasn't the best brunch I've had. I kinda expected more from Zed's.

After lunch with the ladies, I wanted to go across the street to PetCo. to get Snugs some cookies. Wasn't sure if it was open or not since it was Easter. Luckily when I got there, it was open and I was able to get my little boy his favorite cookies. 

I got home and studied my butt off (two tests the following day). In the middle of studying, my boyfriend came over and surprised me with something....

Set of 5 kitchen tools, cake pan, and my favorite... A hot water pump/dispenser.
He bought me the hot water pump so I could have hot water to make noodles at school.
Ahh.. He knows me so well =)


Yay for kitchen/baking tools!


Pupcakes! =) 
They look good enough for humans to eat huh?
(AND, they were only about 50 cents each!)
He got them at this pet store at the Round Rock outlet
Everything he bought was on sale... My honey did good =)

Food Photo Friday - Match Made in Taco C Heaven

I can't help but to crave Taco Cabana when I know it's on campus right around the corner from my classes. There's a food court located in the downstairs of The University Center.. A place where I spend many hours of my school day sitting infront of my laptop. On Wednesday, I already knew what I wanted for lunch and it wasn't the sack lunch I usually bring to school with me. I usually try not to spend money on food at school, but once in a while is ohkay! My honey gave me lunch money (so sweet!) and I was super giddy while walking down to the food court. I ordered the #1 combo on the menu; 2 fajita tacos, chips&queso, and a drink. The man who took my order was a nice, older gentleman who had a smile on his face the entire time I talked to him. It's probably because I was smiling in joy while ordering. I love good customer service =) I filled my cup with my all time favorite soda; Root Beer. I got my food and walked upstairs to the study area of the UC. There's about 16 cubicles for students to sit and study. I usually just sit, eat, and play on my laptop harhar ;] I took out all the food in my bag and took a picture of it and sent it to my honey. I said "Thanks for lunch, Honey!" 


Happy tummy =)

After I sent him the picture, he texted me a picture too and it was a picture of his lunch. Guess what he got? TACO CABANA too! 


Cabana bowl =)

Ohkay, well granted I did tell him I was getting Taco C and he was like "I wanted to get Taco C because you did" Haha. Match made in TACO C heaven ;]

Funny thing is when I got the mail after school, I got a page of coupons for Taco Cabana. What a coincidence =)
