Random Post: Rihanna

This is my favorite photo of Rihanna. Love the red hair color on her. But I'm sure that will change in a few months.

Pico de Gallo in the Morning

Lately I have been obsessed with my new breakfast tortilla experiment. One day i Just drove to the grocery store and bought everything I thought would taste good with eggs. But I am not a light eater so I will share with you what I used [use your own judgment].

What you will need:
3 eggs
Pico de Gallo (tomato, onion, cilantro, lime juice, jalapeno)
Bacon (I used bacon bits)
2 Soft Tortillas
Cheddar Cheese
Salt & Pepper
Hot Sauce

Directions:
Toast your tortillas in the oven or on the stove. If you do this on the stove make sure to do it before you cook the eggs. Scramble your eggs on medium heat. Add the Pico de Gallo, salt and pepper, and the bacon bits while the eggs are still runny. Once they are done add the cheddar cheese. Pour the eggs onto your tortilla and add the hot sauce. Roll it up and it's ready to eat! Enjoy!

Project 365 - 2

So my mother took me out to get a manicure today ... this is my first time getting a professional manicure in two years and my first time having them done in two months. I don't do acrylics ... they ruin my nails dramatically. But they look good don't you think?
