forgive me, a backdated entry.

My dog, Delilah, passed away on this day (and as close to the time as I can get it). I am beyond heartbroken.

She was around 15 years old. I’ve got so many happy memories with her it’s hard to walk around the house and not think of her. I think it’s harder for me in the mornings, when I used to toss her a piece of a dog treat so she would let me leave and but she would just stand there and bark at me anyway. It’s hard all the time really, I can’t stop thinking I see her or hear her barking somewhere.

I don’t now how it’s going to be come spring and she isn’t sleeping in front of that bay window anymore (and killing all those plans my mom has up there). Gus has been breaking my heart too, he seems so lonely now without her. Without them hunting this spring, we’re going to have a lot more rabbits.

I got to say goodbye, which is more than I’ve been able to do for the rest of the dog’s I’ve lost. So why does this feel so much worse?

I have used this on a few different things. One being a delicious marinated chicken (which is just seasoned with this and lemon juice then baked and has some bbq sauce on it) and another is a Southwestern Chicken Pasta. It’s also good on potatoes. I really can’t stop using this stuff, although I bought it instead of making it, I’ll get around to actually making my own and keeping it in the same container.

5 Tblspn sweet paprika (Hungarian)
1/4 cup salt (kosher)
1/4 cup garlic salt
2 Tblspn fresh ground pepper
2 Tblspn onion powder
2 Tblspn cayenne
2 Tblspn dried oregano
2 Tblspn dried thyme


Store in an airtight container (3 mo.)

These are so delicious. I was just thinking about them today and wanted to make them. I don’t know if I’ll get around to it, but the next best thing for me is to write down the recipe somewhere.

Ingredients

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Beat eggs and combine with butter. Add dry ingredients to liquid and mix with fork until moistened. If you use a regular 8×8 pan make sure you line it with foil. This is not necessary if you use a foil pan, but make sure you grease the foil and sprinkle with flour (or use a flour baking spray). Spread batter in pan & bake for 20 – 25 minutes or a toothpick inserted into the middle of pan comes out clean.

Enjoy!

The Oscar nom’s were announced today. A year after his death Heath got a oscar nom for Dark Knight. I think it’s totally justified and I think he needs to win because he was amazing as the joker.

I’ve been doing a lot of web stuff at work and classes started back up, so when I’m done I don’t feel like looking for my layout that went missing.

It’s so nice out today, 60 degrees. But it is supposed to snow this weekend so go figure.

And I fell off the updating kick again. It always happens when I’m bragging about how awesome I’m doing.

Life for me has been pretty uneventful except for Work. Work has been HELLA HELLA crazy and now I’ve started classes back up so it’s gotten a little worse lol. I’m currently doing a ton of web stuff for work though and the idea of getting away from helpdesk is very exciting.
