Weekend Bits

January 27, 2013 by The Squishy Monster

I didn’t feel too hot this weekend and so, my friends made sure to make me laugh and smile.  We spent the entire weekend eating, laughing, dancing, and listening to a lot of #BuddhaBar and #JoshuaBell

photo 2 Jasmine tea with my favorite girl (with a hilarious side of 90′s gansta rap dance routines).  The laughter is just priceless.

photo 5 I think I’ll pretend to be under the weather more often because apparently, you’re rewarded with meatballs as large as your fist!

I fell asleep last night, surrounded by my loved ones, wrapped up in blankies, sprawled out amongst a million candles asking or answering a question before drifting off into my dreams.  In the morning, I felt brand new.

Weekend jam:

Bebel Gilberto – August Day Song

“Hearing the rain fall, a drop here in my foot, I stay alone, so distracted.  I am not gonna cry when remembering…”

Weekend chuckle:

I hope everyone had a great weekend.  I’m off to a pot luck with rainbow cupcakes in tow.  I’m putting the finishing touches on a new video to be up soon =)

Love always,

Your Squishy Monster ^.~

  1. Good grief those meatballs are huge!

    I love dicing some bacon, onions and peppers to mix with my meat to make meatballs!! Yum!!

    I find that when I try to make meatballs any larger than a golf ball they tend to turn out overly meaty (dense) no matter how light I try to compress them. Suggestions?

      I always beat in eggs and it helps to keep in mind that over working the mixture is bad, you definitely don’t want to over mix it (much like a batter) and some soaked bread may also help the situation…some people swear by cupfuls of water/milk.
