Forcing Life to Slow Down

I can't even remember a page's worth of stuff for a test but a 5-year can rap a whole Nicki Minaj song. It's ridiculous.

I have 3 more tests this next week. Doesn't it feel like life never slows down?

5 tips to FORCE life to slow down:

     1. Purposely put your phone in a room that you hardly ever go in and/or avoid. Example: the laundry room.

     2. Pretend you don't have 3 tests this week and proceed to read Glamour and play with your craft table. 

     3. Use Pinterest motivation to clean/organize EVERYTHING to avoid doing things you actually have to do.

     4.  Take bubble baths :)

and

     5. Lounge around bra-less and use that as an excuse to not run errands.

Weird Things Wednesday

1. How people in Utah freak out when they have to drive in rain, even though they are used to driving in snow half the year.

2. No matter what Wal-Mart you walk into, in the whole U.S. you can still feel a sense of home. The same old characters are an anchor in every Wally World near you: a white trash mom yelling at her kids, grumpy old people wearing crocs riding recklessly around the store in their carts, an overweight guy with his bum-crack showing, and the old person that is standing at the front door to greet you :)

3. How my Warm Apple Crisp candle can instantly make me feel at home & cozy

4. After living in California, if you are talking on the phone and see a cop, you instantly drop your phone in your lap and pretend nothing happened.

and 

5. It's weird how 19 sounds really young but then you turn 20 and automatically you're an adult? It's only a year apart people! 

Something else that is weird? A PUG FACED CAT.

A Cure To My Diet Coke Craving...

One of my favorite recipes ever...Coca-Cola pot roast. Could be cause it's DELICIOUS, ooooor cause it's pretty cheap and super easy to make, who knows. Here it is:

Coca-Cola Pot Roast

1   4-5lb. Chuck roast

1   Lipton Onion soup mix

and

2   cans of Coca-Cola

Directions: Throw it all in the crockpot on low for 7-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours. Take out and serve!!

And with the leftovers make a....

Coca-Cola Sandwhich!

2 green bell peppers

1 onion

1 pack of sourdough hoagies

Butter

Mayo

Any cheese you'd like!

Directions: Cut up and sautee the green bell peppers and onion. Meanwhile, also slap some cheese on those hoagies and stick them in the broiler till they are niiiice and melted. Put some mayo on the sandwhich, load the sauteed veggies on there, along with the heated up Coca-Cola pot roast. Two dinner nights right there and sooo delish! Let me make your mouth drool a little bit.....

Ta da!!! I need to not write recipe posts at night, I'm starving now.
