I miss my siblings.

Use what you got

Veggie Black Bean Burgers!

I used this recipe RIGHT HERE and I made a few modifications like adding garlic and two whole chopped up peppers. So it looked more like this:

1 cup cooked black beans, half mashed
1 cup cooked brown rice, mostly mashed
1 T cayenne pepper
2 cloves garlic, chopped fine
2 peppers of your choice, depending on how spicy you like it (I dont know what I used from my parents garden but woo it was spicy)
salt to taste
oil for frying


Basically just combine all ingredients and mash mash mash! Form into patties (I think I ended up with about 5) and heat the oil in a large skillet. Fry on both sides until brown(er than they already are from the black beans :)). They will kind of fall apart so we're looking into making more modifications to the recipe but honestly they were so good it didn't even matter that they were a tad mushy. I served mine on a whole wheat bun with tomato, avocado, and some veganaise.

Somehow the pictures I had have disappeared but if you've seen one black burger you've seen them all, right?

I'll leave you with a picture of my cat.

I'm seriously spoiled.

I would only alter one thing- I need my siblings here. And this little lady:



Life has been wild lately. I feel like i'm always waiting for the next thing to happen. I really want to slow down and let today happen.

I guess we'll see.

Thanks everyone. Great brithday.

Why does romance have to be fictional?

1. a novel or other prose narrative depicting heroic or marvelous deeds,
pageantry, romantic exploits, etc., usually in a historical or imaginary setting.

2. the colorful world, life, or conditions depicted in such tales.

3. a medieval narrative, originally one in verse and in some Romance dialect, treating of heroic, fantastic, or supernatural events, often in the form of allegory.

4. a baseless, made-up story, usually full of exaggeration or fanciful invention.

Hi there!

I don't have internet at home any more and I apologize to those who have been begging for blogs, camp stories and pictures, and of course my usual witty banter.

Its coming.

Girls Camp

Three things I remember about my experiences at girls camp:

- Erin Nielsen taught me how to use a tampon
- We made slingshots and pegged each other with marshmallows
- I learned to love nature and trees and toilets that flush

Three things I do not miss about girls camp:
- Latrine Duty
- Getting up at the ass crack of 6
- Doing Skits

Three things I am so excited for this week:
- The sweet smell of Pine
- Not having a phone
- Feeding little girls everything but hot dogs
