    A Pecan Pie and a Shit Show

    I cram way too much into my Saturday’s, and I end up rushed and sometimes frazzled. Take today, for example. I had a long list to accomplish, and I was successful in all of it. However, my execution towards the end was not pretty. Of course I pushed my time on the computer to the absolute last minute because I wanted to be on cam by 715p EST.  It was 615p EST when I signed off the computer. Plenty of time to shower and get ready for cam. I walked into the kitchen to check on dinner and then I saw it. My pecan pie recipe. I had planned on…

    Favorite Cookie

    I am just going to be honest, I have a serious sweet tooth. I love desserts and there’s only one cookie that I’m going to turn down, if it’s in front of me.  Oatmeal cookies will forever be my favorite because Mom used to bake them often, and she had a secret way of making them fluffy. I’m still searching for what that ingredient might have been. It’s been fun and frustrating, in my experimenting of baking, but I am not giving up. Snickerdoodle’s are also a favorite because Mom would surprise us with them from time to time, to break up the oatmeal cookies, which were Dad’s favorite, and…

    Brain Dump

    Gloomy days are better than sunshine. Rain is life, and snow is nice. Sun is extreme, but needed in the spring, so a couple months out of 12 would be bearable; let’s go ahead and cancel summer. Ha! Elephant rides should be banned and zoo’s cancelled. Yes, at one time zoo’s were educational, but have you been to one lately? They are prison cells and it’s sad. However, sanctuaries and rescues, such as the Elephant Sanctuary in TN, are healthy and more educational than any zoo could be.  Goldens are the best. If you don’t have a furry kid, you need a golden in your life. (Dale, Freeway would not…

    Going to the Gym. NOPE!

    I have never been excited to work out. I played softball in little league and all the way through high school, and never worked out with my teammates. It was not my thing. EVER. It is still not my thing. As I’ve gotten older, which is just part of life, I’ve noticed that I am losing muscle mass and as active as I am on my days off cam, I’d like to get some of that back.  Going to the gym is, and always will be, a big NOPE. I have no desire to go lift weights with society. Sitting on their sweat and smelling athletes foot in the locker…

    Newsletter

    Last month the poll asked how you would like to receive news; whether in a newsletter or email. I only had three votes for “email”, and I only know about 1 of you. If you are reading this, and you would like to receive news via email, please comment on this post or send me a message (angel@lonestarangel.com). I’d like to accomodate you all, if possible. Granted, I don’t send many newsletters out, and in fact, I’ve only sent three this year, one of which, was today.

    Festive as Fuck

    I am not a holiday hoorah kind of person. In fact, hating December has always come easy for me. I’m a natural at it, you could say. However, once I left Texas I no longer really had a good reason for hating all things “Christmas”. Side note: I just learned something about December 25th, and I am still gobsmacked over the discovery. Well, not so much as a discovery as Gregg-with-2-g’s divulging some “well known” information on how Christmas became Christmas. That’s for another post that I will probably never write. lol. But I blame a group of people for putting us all thru an annual torture, also known as…

    Pancakes vs. French Toast

    I’ve recently added a monthly poll to my site. You do have to be a member to vote, so all members, please vote! I mix it up between serious inquiries (such as “Fantasy or Mutual” or “What Would You Prefer to See More Of”) and fun (such as, “Pancakes vs. French Toast” or “Twizzlers vs. Red Vines”). We are only nine days into this months poll and I am gobsmacked to see that Pancakes are winning! Who are you people? No, french toast. That is where it is at! It is everything good! Gah. Pancakes. Pfft!

    Lingerie and Socks!

    Nicster, I have known you for the better part of 16 years, and you have always been a constant supporter of all things. Thank you for always thinking of me when it comes to the holidays and birthdays. We might not talk as often as we once did, but you have always been a favorite, and one that I am grateful to know. It might surprise you to know that I have already worn the lingerie, but not the socks. Soon though, because they’re bright and fun! I will utilize the cookbook often and cannot wait to make the first dish!

    Gifts to Honor our Girl

    The amount of support and love that I have been shown, regarding the news of our favorite golden, continues to amaze me. I’ve also received gifts to honor our girl. I wasn’t sure if I was going to share them here, but truthfully, she was such a huge part of the online community, and I feel that each gift should be acknowledged. I appreciate them all. Not just the thought, but the kindness shown. Thank you. Amber – As soon as I shared Abby’s diagnosis, you had a shirt custom made for me, and it makes me smile each time I see it, and the kindness warms my heart. Thank…
