Mango Salsa

I made some AH.MAH.ZING mango salsa today for dinner at Mom's house, super proud. Not only did I make this salsa, but I took pictures while I did it! So proud. With my new camera. So happy. I originally got this recipe from A Beautiful Mess, a lovely blog that these two girlfriends post on like, three times a day. ( To clarify, they are not lesbians. Although I wouldn't mind if they were. They are just girlfriends. Like Sisters. ) If you like bloggers, and girls, and home DIY Decor and cute clothes, and all things bright, that is a good blog to follow. And you can follow mine. Too. 

Just chop up the first 5 Ingredients, then Squeeze on the juice from the lime.

I didn't use that much cilantro, or any salt. also not that much garlic. But just season to taste. I did it, so I know you can.

I own a Ninja, so I hand chopped my fruits. I didn't want a Mango Salsa Smoothie, right? 

My Ninja is too good.

If you are like me, you may or may not know how to cut a mango. I ruined 2 before I Googled that crap and found this awesome website with pictures on HOW TO CUT YOUR MANGO. click HERE to see.

HAPPY FOOL BIRTHDAY!!!!

YES YES, it was my birthday! Happy April Fools day :) and my real birthday yo! its been that way for 21 years. 

I keep thinking my parents will call me up one of these years, and fool me good. so good." Oh honey.... you were really born December 25th..." THANK YOU MOM AND DAD. I LIKE MY FAKE BIRTHDAY THANKS.

I got a new camera for my birthday! so exciting. also, Brad got me F•R•I•E•N•D•S !! WHAT. That is my new favorite thing ever. plus the camera. too. but those friends..... haha they are so friendly! funny. I mean, those friends are so funny. Tonight I am leaving my kitchen lights off so I don't need to see how dirty it is. I don't want to clean tonight. 

also, WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE ELECTRICAL SOCKETS AT SCHOOL. They are all upside down. ? and those people should stop eating in class. it is smelly.

Cheat

So it is true. I have a blog evaluation for my Mass Comm class, and I am blogging today. That is a main reason why I am blogging, but also because I have been meaning to do it for like, 2 weeks now. I have been so busy though because.......... 

I GOT A NEW JOB. Good. 

Tristar, this is Liza?

I am the new receptionist, and the first week was brutal. I didn't know if I was going to make it. But week two was better. I read 2 books in the last 3 days! I am impressed with myself. So the books I have read lately - I have read 3 really good ones, and I am in the middle of another one.  

The Night Circus 

Divergent 

Invergent

and 

Z for Zachariah

If I was going to describe myself in a book, it would be The Night Circus. It was mysterious and beautiful and magical. So magical.  Divergent and Invergent were kinda post apocalyptic/hunger games status. those are the 2 I read in 3 days. Each took less than 12 hours. I started Z for Zachariah- I borrowed it from motherinlaw Tracy like, months ago... Sorry Tracy. But I'm reading it now! and its good. 

I am so ready for spring. summer. ANYTHING WARMER THAN JANUARYFEBRUARYandMARCH.

Now, I am going to try this new thing called button swap. It might take a minute to set up.... but I am working on that this week. Button Swap is when I put other bloggers buttons on my blog, and the others bloggers hopefully put my button up on their blogs. Swap. get it?
