The best way to predict your future is to create it!

        Charlotte is so cute! Just saying. She still is only saying baba mama and dada no other words so that is disappointing but I'm not too worried yet. She learned how to jump this week and it's a very funny thing to watch. I worry a lot now that she is self feeding that she isn't actually eating enough food, she plays with it, eats a bit  and then feeds the dog her food. It's very frustrating. 

        Charlotte and I went to the sierra safari zoo on Monday and it was very fun. If you haven't been there you should go it's cool the peacocks are free to roam wherever they please, Charlotte didn't like it. 

       I cook, sometimes. I work about three days a week so naturally unless I'm feeling  energetic after work I don't make dinner those nights and Charlotte and I usually just wing it and eat whatever is in the fridge (I dont think that qualifys me as the worst parent of the year award). Jaysen works nights and is usually not home for dinner so when he is off I try to make something. This week I made what I call Pizza Roll Ups as a snack for Jaysen they are very delicious and not very good for you but they are super easy and only takes five ingredients to make. 

Please note 1. go easy on the garlic salt and 2. you must use the cheese stick cheese, regular cheese just makes a mess. http://www.asparkleofgenius.com/2010/09/back-to-school-with-frigo-cheese.html 
     I also made what I like to call "Enchilada Thingy" this week, it is also super yummy and easy to make. However I will warn you that if you use whole regular chicken breasts don't use three, its too much chicken. http://damndelicious.net/2014/02/19/chicken-enchilada-skillet/
      I made a caprese pasta that was very delicious, when I make it again I think I will add a 1/4 cup more sauce and a bit more cheese,(you can never have too much cheese) and maybe some type of meat. http://www.iheartnaptime.net/caprese-pasta/

        I don't really like smoothies all that much but I tried these smoothie shaker things the other day and it was wonderful, like a dessert in a cup that doesn't make me feel like I need to run ten miles to work it off. Try it out, just sayin.

       In the month of May I read about twenty books but most of them weren't very good. Lately I have been having trouble finding books that are entertaining and mind challenging at the same time. I also can't seem to find very many books that don't have tons of sex scenes, what is that all about!? Seriously! I read two books that are note worthy. I read a book called The Good The Bad and The Ugly Men I've Dated by Shane Bolks it's cute, nerdy and a fun easy read. The other book I read was Abby Cooper, Psychic Eye by Victoria Laurie, this book was good, a nice little love story an a fun mystery.
