Yummy Tortillas

As I have had to cook for myself these last couple weeks, I have found a love for tortillas! They are so versatile! (Not to mention cheap and good for my body!) Here are some of the delightful meals I have had with tortillas:

- The old standby- shredded cheese on a tortilla, pop it in the microwave, and wahlah!
- Tacos made with lettuce from the farmer's market, cheese, and refried beans
- Quesadilla- chicken and cheese made in my friend's quesadilla maker
- My new personal favorite- The old standby with a hot dog rolled up in it. YUM!

So, does anyone have any other tortilla recipes I should try? Another food I've been enjoying (as always) is pasta! It's great how I can buy one box of pasta and one can of alfredo sauce for around 2 bucks, make the whole box, and have leftovers for days!

I've also been eating a lot of sandwiches, raw fruits and veggies, bagels, yogurt, etc. Overall, it's been a good experience so far. I've even grilled out a couple times with friends! (Although that would be impossible now with all the rain!) And yesterday when a couple friends and I decided to go the quesadilla route, I was also introduced to Couscous! It was delicious and might have to be my new pasta! Ha!

Hooray for tortillas!

Clean Cabinets

Andra and I are going to have a dish washing date tonight... and this will be the beautiful result. Since I definitely haven't done dishes in a very long time and they are piling up. I'm looking forward to some great conversaion over nice WARM water (finally!) and bubbles. :)

New Beginnings

Forget the former things;

do not dwell on the past.

See, I am doing a new thing!

Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?

I am making a way in the desert

and streams in the wasteland.
