Dirty Work Tour

-
So I guess it was about a month ago when I had invited my friend to come and see a concert with me. It was the first one that I had planned and where I was the one driving. So I had a lot of things going on at once. Printed out two versions of directions, ordered the tickets saved the date, and then it was there.

The concert was at the Warfield in San Francisco, and I have to say I learned a lot about the driving there. The main thing is I don't like it! There are one way streets every other street, and most of the time making a left hand turn is about impossible. So after driving around and trying to get a close parking spot (which was impossible) we parked a few blocks down and walked.
The other thing I learned is that there was a reason when I went to concerts with Tanya we left early and sat in line for hours. Because when you get there an hour before the concert starts (or about the time doors open) you have to walk around the block to get to the end of the line to walk in. What ever right? Always learn from your mistakes.


Anyway, waiting at the end of the line long enough, and we were in! I had bought these tickets a few months earlier and wanted to go because one of my favorite bands were playing Hey Monday. The headliner was All Time Low, which I had heard before and Yellowcard was playing as well, the one band I didn't know was The Summer Set. I had never heard of them, and so I was interested to hear what they sounded like.

The Summer Set on stage


Well, I guess I did learn something else. That when you are on the floor at a concert, your feet are going to be vibrating all night. I am not kidding, as long as there was a band onstage it seemed like the floor was moving. All that sound, and there were no chairs, we were on our feet about the whole night, and maybe if we had moved around it would have helped, but standing there my feet just had a strange feeling about them.




Some pictures were just harder to get then others



Cassadee from Hey Monday singing:





Yes, if you were wondering I was singing along to all of their songs.







Hey Monday did an acoustic melody in between some of their songs













Then came Yellowcard.
They had some new songs, some old songs, and some classic songs








Waiting while they did the stage set up for the main attraction
All Time Low

It was a fun and good concert and I was so glad that I did it.

 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...

  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...
