Midnight Philly Cheese Steak

So it's almost two in the morning and I'm suddenly craving a Philly Cheese Steak!
That's what I get for watching the Food Network at this time of night(or morning)
And I'm shaking my fist at Jack for no longer making or selling the Philly Cheese Steak sandwich!
You may be thinking "who is Jack?", right?
I'm talking about that guy on T.V. with a big round white head...Jack In The Box!
I have the smell of sweet onions and peppers wafting in my mind. I can see the steam rising from the thinly sliced meat and just baked bread. Mmm...Mmm...Mmmm.
I need to write Mr Box a strongly worded letter for taking those off the menu. Because if he hadn't, I would be indulging in a very sinful sandwich in this very moment. Second thought, maybe I should write him a thank you note instead! ♥M

VIVA the George Jetson Food Machine!

Hello everyone!
Right now I am wishing I was living in the George Jetson era. You know where you have a robot maid with a cute name like "Rosie" and where no cooking is required. All you have to do is push a button to select whatever you'd like to eat and this wonderful machine magically produces a gourmet meal or just a plain old burger.
I usually enjoy cooking and the challenges of finding new and inventive ways to make the same food taste better or slightly different than last week. But then there are those days such as today when I just wanna ask my family "what'll it be?" and push a button or two to satisfy the variety of palates in my home.
I don't know if I'm just bored or tired...or both?
Anywho, instead of daydreaming about the George Jetson food machine, I'll be in my kitchen, marinating Diesmillo and prepping for tonight's Mexican Torta feast. Viva the George Jetson food machine! (ME) ♥ M

Zombie Village

After a very eventful early morning(the 3 a.m. earthquake)
I was unable to fall asleep. I tried to push the thought of aftershocks out of my head to no avail.
What if that 3.7 tremor was just the beginning of something bigger?
I tossed and turned for 3 more hours trying to use every method in the "Insomniac's Book" hoping to find the map to Dreamland. I never made it.
So here I am in a different place called "Somewhere in between Slumber Town and AwakeVille"
I think it's now called "Zombie Village". (The other name was too long to remember)
Zombie Village isn't a fancy place but it is amusing. First of all, the landscape is terrific. Since no one here can really see straight, it all blurs together, kind of like a Van Gogh painting.
There are 7-11's, Starbucks, and close to 1 million cafes and coffee joints in Zombie Village.
There are no cars since no one here is awake enough to operate a vehicle. And all the gas pumps have been converted to coffee pumps. You can get Regular Joe for 99¢ a gallon. I usually opt for the Premium Express-O.
Depending on what stage of sleeplessness you are in, you might have the capacity to hold a conversation with another traveler. (Unfortunately, there are permanent residents, but most are passerbys just trying to make it through.)
The majority of conversation makes absolutely no sense and half the words are slurred. It's too hard not to laugh when you're in this deliriousness. Most of the time I'm laughing at myself because I know what I'm saying is random and aimless. But other times, I can't hold back the down right rude burst of uncontrollable cackling .
This one guy, I think his name was Harry or Larry, maybe it was Garry; (anyway something with an "Arry"),
just told me that he put his Volvo in the microwave to fix the radio and that his neighbor who was a professional bull rider would take it out for a test drive...At least I think that's what he said.♥M

EARTHQUAKE!

WHOA!
At 2:55 a.m., I felt my whole house move and shake!
I heard deep rumbling, almost an indescribable sound...
I could feel it in every part of me, a wave of panic rushed over my body.
I ran to the front door to make sure it wasn't a missile being launched from the nearby Air Force base.
All I saw, was black sky. I realized that my first instinct was true...
EARTHQUAKE!
Apparently, I'm the only one who felt it.
Everyone else is still sleeping ( soundly), unafraid and unaware.
Although the shaking and rumbling has stopped, a little cloud of fear lingers just above my head.
...Aye yi yi...I can't fall asleep! ♥M

New "Blogger"

Greetings! Hello everyone in Blog-Land...
This is my very first post...SO I will keep it short & sweet!
I'm really not sure what I am doing....but writing is fun, so I'll give this a shot.
I'll try to write a little something everyday, probably completely random, hence the blog name!
I will be taking questions on just about anything as well...If you would like a truthful "opinion", I'll be the one to give it to you! ♥M
