ANNIE!
About a week ago Dee & I watched the movie Annie.. One of my favorites... Dee doesn't typically like musicals but I begged him to watch it! (Either that or Hairspray & let me just say, he absolutely hates hairspray!) So he finally gave in. I was so happy that he actually watched it! I guess you could say my favorite type of movies is "Musicals". I LOVE musicals. I don't know if it's the singing... Or if it's the dancing.. or both. All I know is I love it! It's probably both. Just because I love to dance, & I love music & singing (No I cannot sing... unfortunately!)
I was introduced to musicals when I was really young. My Aunt Jolie would always watch musicals & Megan & I happened to always be around when she would watch them! I loved watching all the Shirley Temple movies.. I don't know if those are considered musicals, but they had a lot of singing & dancing in them! I also grew up watching Grease! (I love love love that movie.) As well as all the Disney movies.. I know they're not musicals, but they DO have singing! (: (I absolutely love the older Disney movies. Like Hercules.. I would watch that over & over again growing up. Actually I probably still could watch that movie over & over again now! I also like Beauty & the Beast, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Aladdin, Lion King, Etc.) Oh & there are also some newer Disney movies that I love as well because of the singing & dancing: The Princess & the Frog!! (All time favorite! Okay.. they're all my favorites. ha) & Tangled!
Let's just say I loved when movies had singing & dancing & still do! Other musicals I love are: Hairspray, Mamma Mia, Annie (Of course), Burlesque, footloose (both of them!), The TV show Glee, Chicago, The Sound of Music, Moulin Rouge, High School Musical (All of them), South Pacific, Singing in the Rain, & Pretty much any musical you can think of! (:
Anyway to get on with the point of this.. I always wanted my life to be like a musical.. Where everyone would just burst out dancing.. & singing! Wouldn't that be cool?? I thought that I was probably wishing for something impossible.. until I met/ Married Dee. (:
Dee & I sing about everything! Even ask the lady at the DMV.. (When I got my named changed after we got married I started singing something about my license & the lady asked Dee "Does she always sing about everything?" I hadn't realized I was singing until after she said that.. ha He told her "Yes.") I really like that Dee & I sing about everything. It kind of helps when you get into an argument.. you know because we are singing everything & it's hard to stay mad at each other when you're singing!(: Anyway I'm so happy I'm married to Dee. I'm so happy that I was blessed to get everything I wanted & more! Like I said I would have never imagined having a musical like life! Dreams really do come true! ;)
Also this week I made Rolls. They were pretty good. I absolutely love baking & cooking! I always feel so accomplished when I make something new.. from scratch! I think eventually I want to own a my own bakery & cake parlor! I love making cakes. I think anyone who knows me can tell you I do. I mean I pretty much made my Wedding cake.. Okay I just did the fondant.. but I could have easily made the whole thing like I wanted to do, but I guess when you're the bride you have so much stress that you never thought about when you weren't getting married. So my mom & grandma made the cakes. I did the fondant though because neither of them knew how to make it (Since it was a June wedding & 102 F degrees & outside, if we did butter cream frosting like we were planning... it would have melted!). Anyway before I go off about random things again, This is how the rolls turned out:
On Sunday (Sunday August 5, 2012) I made homemade chimichangas! Dee loved them, & I loved them. I looked at a recipe but I mostly made it my own. I used one thing similar to the recipe just because I wasn't sure if I would like it the way they said to make it.
First of all, the recipe didn't call for Pinto Beans (Or any beans for that matter).. or Shredded chicken. But as you can see I used both!(:
So you just cook the chicken in a frying pan.. & then shred it with a fork after wards. Then you use Seasonings that you use in tacos.. or burittos. & put 1/2 cup of Sour Cream (This is the thing I copied from the recipe)
That's all for now!

Then you put the beans, Chicken, & Cheese on the tortilla! & wrap it up & put melted butter on top of the chimichangas & on the bottom of it as well & make sure to preheat oven to 425F & bake for 20 minutes (Or until golden brown) & after the 20 minutes add cheese on top of them & turn oven off & put the chimi back in the oven until it's melted! You can serve it with lettuce, tomatoes, and/or Sour cream (Or anything you want!)
