Ten On Tuesday- Start of Summer Edition
Hi again! Sorry I've been awol. I've had post ideas rolling around in my head for awhile, but haven't been able to put anything "worthy of reading" together. And upon re-reading old posts, I decided to do another Ten on Tuesday posting, cause they're easy and don't require much thought! Ha! I'm also brainstorming ideas for a good name for a food blog. Any ideas would be appreciated!
Post questions taken from http://rootsandrings.com/. Feel free to play along and link my blog to yours, or vice versa, or whatever!
1. From your childhood, what do you miss most about summer vacation?
Getting up whenever I felt like it, going to Grandma's every day to swim, being able to enjoy the nice weather.
2. Are you going anywhere on vacation this summer?
I don't think so. Husband wants to go to the Dells, but we'll see if we can afford to go.
3. What foods do you like to barbeque?
Hamburgers, Chicken, any meats really!
4. How do you celebrate the Fourth of July?
The 4th is my dad's birthday, so lucky guy gets to celebrate his birthday with a parade and fireworks! We start the day with the parade, then go to my dad's mom's for his birthday party, then we go to my other grandma's house for swimming, boating, falling-off-tube time, eating (we eat massive amounts of food on holidays in my family). Then fireworks at dusk. Not sure what we'll do this year since I work the day after, and we always travel for the 4th.
5. What's your favorite beverage to drink in the summertime?
Lemonade, Iced Tea, MOJITOS!
6. What movie are you looking forward to seeing this summer?
We don't go to movies very often anymore, but I'd like to see The Hangover II. Looks pretty funny.
7. In the car: Windows down or AC?
Depends on the weather. Humid out= AC. Normal/slightly windy= windows down.
8. Have you ever had a summer fling?
Hehehehehe. Maybe.
9. Do you wear sunscreen?
Yes. I have to or else I'll burn pretty bad.
10. Do you have any favorite summertime activities?
Swimming, sun bathing with my favorite girls, Bocce Ball, basically anything outdoors.
That's all for today! See ya later, alligator!

Ten on Tuesday
1. What condiments are always, always in your fridge?
2. How do you like your steak cooked? Your burgers?
1 can frozen Pink Lemonade
1 bottle Chardonnay
½ cup Brandy
3 cup Sprite
Ice
Stir and let stand in refrigerator for 1 hour.
10. How do you like your eggs?
- Ketchup, BBQ Sauce, Sweet N Sour, Fajita Sauce
2. How do you like your steak cooked? Your burgers?
- Steak, medium. Burgers, just a little pink.
- Diced for tacos!
- Ha. Cereal. Just kidding! We always have 6" tortillas and shredded cheese in the fridge, so if nothing else, we have quesadillas. "Knock if off Napoleon, go make yourself a dang quesadilla!"
- Pretzel sticks. Which is weird cause I've never really like pretzels (unless there's booze involved).
- For just me, eggs and toast. If the hubs is home, pancakes or french toast, hashbrowns and I make eggs for myself.
- We have a grill that we were given late last summer from a friend, but haven't used it yet. That's our goal for this summer. But we used to grill burgers all the time when we had a lil charcoal grill.
- Wine: Beringer White Zinfandel. Beer: Honeyweiss, Killians Irish Red
- Blueberry Sangria: Put in a large pitcher;
1 can frozen Pink Lemonade
1 bottle Chardonnay
½ cup Brandy
3 cup Sprite
Ice
Stir and let stand in refrigerator for 1 hour.
10. How do you like your eggs?
- Over easy. I like a runny yolk.

Current books: Still reading "The Royals" by Kitty Kelley. It's long. And the chapters seem to repeat themselves, which makes for a really long read. But it is interesting.

Current Guilty Pleasure: Kourtney and Kim Take New York, The Real Housewives of Orange County.
Current Color: Lots and lots of black.
Current Drink: Iced Coffee. I put the leftover coffee in a container, put it in the fridge, then have it with creamer the next day. Waste not.
