Spring got me Sprung: Mushroom Barley Risotto

Morels. Hawhmahgawd.... legit food porn right here folks. These little guys are so beautiful, appearance-wise and taste. If I even get close to getting my hands on them I get a little crazy... (I have people to attest to this)

As much as I love you all, sometimes I wanna punch you in the face!

It's true, I get these ALL OF THE TIME (still) and from some of my dearest friends and loved ones. Remember though I still love you guys hahahaha

Cock Sauce!

Have I ever mentioned that I have a little love affair with all things spicy?

Weird, well I do. Like really spicy.

(you shrug) No, like so spicy your ears hurt. hahaha I don't play games!

And my condiment of choice? SriRacha (you're stunned, I know). But sadly since moving out of my apartment I have been without my beloved red rooster for a few months. I was beginning to have withdrawals.

Alright Bitches, I'm back... and feeling a little monstrous

It's true, I'm back and feeling better than eva! It's been nearly a year since my last post and I miss the hell outta you guys! Lots has changed in the world of Ms. Cara.
But with life starting to come back to some sort of sense and order I feel like I can get back to my normal day to day shyyt (if ya know what I'm sayin')

Kinda Sketchy: Jesus don't want me for a sunbeam...

Sunbeams are not made like me.

I crack myself up sometimes

What to do when it's too hot to cook (plus a little chocolate therapy)

Maybe you have A/C... maybe you're like me and don't (well that's a lie... I do... except mine has decided that it would be really cool if it would just act like a heater and blow hot air....)

Goodbye little buddy...

You were a great dog and a great family member. You gave us nine wonderful years. I will always love you and miss you terribly Casey-puppy....

Rest in peace little girl.
