21. a recipe

Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Ingredients

2 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon sour cream
10 pickled jalapeno pepper slices, or to taste - chopped
2 ciabatta sandwich rolls
4 teaspoons butter
8 tortilla chips, crushed
1/2 cup shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese

Directions

Combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and pickled jalapeno in a small bowl. Set aside. Preheat skillet over medium heat.
Slice each roll in half horizontally, then slice the rounded tops off the ciabatta rolls to make a flat top half. Spread 1 teaspoon butter on the doughy cut side of the bottom bun and 1 teaspoon butter on the now flattened top bun. Place half of the cream cheese mixture, half of the crushed chips, and half of the shredded cheese on the non-buttered side of the bottom bun. Place the top half of the bun on the sandwich and place the sandwich on the hot skillet. Repeat with the second sandwich.
Grill until lightly browned and flip over, about 3 to 5 minutes; continue grilling until cheese is melted and the second side is golden brown.

I don't really remember my dreams, but I had one that I was flying recently and I remember we were like going to the wrong place and I was freaking out, but then all the sudden I wasn't on a plane anymore and I was just at the beach, but I was so hot because I was wearing a sweater, but I couldn't take it off. And then I woke up or something. It was stupid.

Camping and Crablegs

So for Memorial Day Weekend Jake and I went to Marysville, UT with Janell and Burk and camped. It was so nice and warm. The boys fished and Janell and I just kinda hung out and we found this fun little antique shop. I bought a little gold watch for $3.00. haha. I love it though. It's my souvenir from the weekend. We played this washer throwing game that we found at wal-mart like twenty times, but it is seriously like the most fun game. Then that night we went to this gas station that has been turned into a "restaurant". Jake and I had been there a year ago with his brother and some of their friends so that's why we decided to go back. They have unlimited crab legs and these giant servings of prime rib for pretty cheap and it is amaaaaaazing! It looks like the most white trash place ever, but I kid you not, it is sooooo good. I think I literally ate 25 crab legs (on top of everything else they give you). Ask Jake.

Anyway, then on Sunday, Janell and Burke had to head back, but Taylor and Devo wanted to come camping, so we headed back to Jake's family's house in Holden. They met us there, but the weather started getting bad and it was freezing! So...we ended up just having a fire and cooked hot dogs and smores there. It was really fun actually, but I don't have any pictures from it. Hopefully we'll get a good camping trip planned with all of our friends soon!

New York- Day 2

Friday, March 25 2011

This is what I was doing a week ago Friday in New York...so many activities...so many pictures...OVERLOAD...enjoy!

Starting out the day...

Shopping in Soho...probably one of my new favorite places ever.

Cafe Habana

more Soho...

DASH! we had to go...

Jenn's Brother-In-Law got us VIP passes to the Empire State Building, so we got to skip all the lines, and go up to the top of the needle. So much better than the last time I went. I love the view of the city from up there.

subway

Dylan's Candy Bar

Serendipity...where we ate our weight in chocolate fudge.

We all went home and took a nap after our long day and then got up and went to walk the Brooklyn Bridge. So fun and great pictures! If you go to New York, make sure you do this once!
