SO tonight I was scrounging for supper. There is nothing in the house and the only grocery store here is closed for Jesus, which is nice, but still...it's Easter and I'm not prepared. So I just started throwing what I had together...and I LOVED it--and surprisingly, Vic did too! So, not that I think any of you will use this recipe, this is where I'm going to store it!

1 lb lean ground beef (I prefer Laura's lean ground beef, 4% fat)
1 can refried beans (I use vegetarian ones!)
1 can of Rotel w/ juice
1 can of corn (drained)
about 1-2 cups of frozen mixed veggies: onion, bell pepper, celery, parsley (it comes already mixed)
3-4 garlic cloves, crushed
couple of shakes of red pepper flakes
5 flour tortillas (I used whole wheat)
2 cups of colby jack cheese

Brown the meat, drain any liquid, add garlic, red pepper flakes, Rotel, corn, and frozen veggies-stir together. In 9x13 put 2 tortillas, tear up 1/2 of another and fill in gaps. Scoop 1/2 of beans out of the can and spread them onto the tortillas. Cover w/ half of meat/veggie mixture. Cover w/ 1/2 of cheese. Repeat. Cook for 20 minutes on 350.

So a parent of a student in my room found two baby squirrels after a neighbor's tree was cut down. She saved them. She bottle fed them every four hours and now they've moved on to seeds and apples. They are about 6 or so weeks old now and she's had them over a month. I love them. I held one and all my kids pet them. SO cute!




Speaking of cute...He thinks he's smaller than he is. He tries to lay on things that he just doesn't fit on, but today he propped himself up on the lysol can. I love him too.





AND speaking of propping up, this is a portrait of Nancy and I drawn my one of my students today. Are my boobs really that saggy? And for the record, she's never seen me in a dress.

And Vic is 34 today. Happy Birfday! That sounds old. I remember my mom being 34. It's a good thing he's a cradle robber and that I'm still young....

I made my coworker/friend, Jill, a banana pudding for her birthday tomorrow. It's cute, see:

I got my husband w/ an April Fool's joke! So I sent him a text that said "Did you know that your ipod gets heavier when you add music to it???" and he replied with "How? Because you add electrons when you add data?"

Ha ha ha ha! I always hate AFD jokes, but this really amused me! He's such a nerd and that's why I love him!
