Back to School

-
Remember a while back when I said how I was missing school?

Well I can't say that anymore. School is back, and which means I have all the student work to be taking up my time with homework, tests, quizes and everything that comes inbetween. And then there is always the hard part, trying to wake up early for a class.

This semester I amgoing to see if I can do it all. Balance 16 units of school work with the homework that comes along with it as well as working part time. I have to say, I have only been in school a week and I think I have got it down.

My schedule is a little strange this semester. I have an early morning class Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and those days I am at school from 8AM until 2:15PM. Which is sometimes like a very long day. Bouncing from one class to another, and then having to go to work those days between 3 and 4 and then staying at work until closing, which is around 8pm.
Then there is Tuesdays and Thursdays, which I guess you could say are my days to relax. I only have one class that day, and it doesn't start until 5PM! Which means I can get homework done, get plenty of sleep, and maybe do something in between. It is great that I can sleep in and that one class is the only one I have to worry about.

Now the classes I am taking this semester are a little harder then the ones I was taking last semester. For one I am now taking an English class which means that I have drafts and papers that I need to write. And then I am also taking Physics, Pre-Calculus, and another Administration of Justice class. What a mouthful! Harder classes and more work. I am ready for this and I am going to make it work!

 When I go back and think, I may not have taken a picture of the dinners I made.  Nope no picture of the Cajun fried rice or the Cajun chicken pasta .  I even tried to remind myself to take a picture of it as my lunch, and even that was a no.   Guess I'll start with the fried rice since I made that first.  I think it seemed simple enough, and I was almost positive I had all of the ingredients or if not a substitute, as I switched the brown rice out for white.  For the life of me I kept forgetting to look and make sure we had shrimp, but also take it out to defrost.  Our freezer is not that big, but the shrimp was all the way in the back behind baked goods, chicken, berries and a few other things I forgot were in there.   Shrimp came out and defrosted day of, although I don't think they were deveined so they took a little more prep work once the cooking started.  Side note, my coworker had mentioned making shrimp tacos and I thought...

July

  Yikes!  Did the last month or so get away from me or what.  I had honestly started this, well prepped this a month ago, and then apparently life happened.  So before I'm two months behind, what did I make in July.   I made lots of things with cream cheese, and if you keep up more will come, a because these mini cheese cakes were a bit of a cheat while I yet again wait on buying something that I may not have room for in my kitchen right now.  Yes a springform pan takes up less room then a stand mixer, but how often will I use it?  Actually if I had one I might use it as regularly as I am my muffin tin and donut pan.  Well, maybe not but at the rate I'm going at least once every couple months.   Now I went with mini cheesecakes to lets say ease myself into it.  I've had most if not all the ingredients for a month, and was just waiting for the right time, and I may have pushed back because cheesecake isn't really a summer treat...

List of Making

 I've got a few things scattered here and there, and pins saved for a rainy day but if I write them here maybe make myself more accountable they might be more likely to happen.  I thought about lasagna a few weeks ago, knew I had most of what I needed, just needed a recipe really.  Do I have my mom's recipe or is it one of those things that's more in her head but not written down anywhere?   I also talked to her about making chicken and dumplings to get her thoughts/input since I've got bisquick and I think it would go over well here.   Just went through my "recipe book" I typed up before starting college thinking I was going to be like my sister who had moved out a year before making all these fancy things for myself for dinner.  Makes me laugh what I put in it.  Mostly desserts, some snack or side dishes and maybe a few actual meals.  Way to go Carrie from ten years ago! So here is the list (probably won't make all of these) but it sh...
