Back to Reality

 

 

 

This is how I feel about going to work right now.

Since I can't be like my idol Betty, I just made a deliberate choose not to shower the past two days so that I could sleep in an extra forty minutes. I just did a whore bath and dry shampooed my hair. Judge me all you want, I still smelled passably presentable. And by presentable, I mean thank god it was an office day with no kids so I had limited interaction with people who actually washed their hair.

And for those of you haters who say it's only day three suck it up asshole, you had the summer off. I say being this awesome is hard. Prolly not as hard as being a Realhouswife, but still hard. I mean I worked three days this week! I am so glad it's Friday! #firstworldproblems #idontcare

 

I got my eye on the prize though. Soon it will be payday and I will be rolling in boxed wine, Miller Light, and buying all the junk food I want. Oh, that's just me being all PMSy, I won't really do that. I'll just go to a strip club and make it rain on a hoe.

Yummy Dessert Recipe

I don't know about you, but I like to eat my way through holidays. It can be Christmas, Halloween, Valentine's Day.... Or the Fourth of July and I will eat the entire day. So, I thought I'd share my recipe for a wonderful, pseudo-healthy Lemon Berry Trifle. It is so yum!

Lemon Berry Trifle

16oz angel food cake 

1 container frozen whipped topping, thawed

1 small (6-8oz) yogurt (vanilla or lemon)

1/2-1 cup lemon curd 

2 cups fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries)

Cut angel food cake in to 1-2 inch cubes. Place a third in the bottom of a trifle dish.

Combine thawed whipped topping with yogurt and lemon curd. Mix well until the lemon curd is completely incorporated into the yogurt mixture. Spread a third of the recipe evenly over the angel food cake.

Layer some berries around the side of the triflel dish, so that people can see them. 

Continue to layer angel food pieces, whipped topping mixture, and berries. 

On the top layer, make sure it looks pretty! You can add some lemon zest so that people know it's a lemon berry trifle. 

Proceed to eat!

Don't worry I put it in the dishwasher after 

I took my beautiful Lemon Berry Trifle over to my uncle's house for his pre-Fourth of July BBQ. The fireworks in his city go off on the 3rd, so he has people over to eat, drink, and be merry then. It is always a lot of fun. And food. It makes you feel slightly guilty the next day, but only slightly. 

Let me know if you try the trifle and how you like it! It's one of my favorite go to recipes that can be made quickly and easily (especially if you use store bought cake).
