French Toast Pancakes

This idea came to me at like 1am while I was in and out of sleep. I awoke and said to Daniel “we should make French toast. Then dip it in pancake batter. Are you down?” and the next morning this happened:

French Toast batter included: eggs (duh), sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Pretty basic.

This would’ve been delicious enough

I added the sugar, cinnamon and vanilla to the pancake batter too. My only regret was that I should’ve bought buttermilk for it.

Coat liberally. Then onto the pan

Sausage was on sale. Bacon wasn’t. But this was DELICIOUS!!!! definitely gonna do this again. And push it even further.

The converse block party

It was a wonder free event for the community. Even if it had cost money. They should have more free/affordable events like this in the hood. This brings the community together. There was NO trouble whatsoever in a fairly troublesome neighborhood.
Plenty of activities. Food. Beverages. And entertainment for EVERYONE. it was a lovely day. Glad I spent it with my Bestía.

Also saw thurz, Karen, Matt, bobby, Nelson, porno Dave, coach African Dan, Courtney, TerrEnce Clayton, and a bunch of other folk.

Thurz, PacDiv, Nola Darling and Stalley performed. Super awesome forever.

after me and bestía scooped 456 for a delightful meal. 🙂

USA wins basketball gold

20120813-064510.jpg
Alert. Cuz I’m dumb I’m skipping to the 2nd half. I missed the beginning and I couldnt find the proper link to stream it.

Once I finally go it on the effn Spanish team was up by 2 and playing tough. I didn’t think their post presence was gonna be as much of a factor as it was. I mean, sure, we are pretty undersized but think about Miami’s small ball lineup that won the NBA title. Spain was smart they fouled early to prevent as many fast break opportunities as possible. Shit, even times when we didn’t have a great advantage they still fouled. Trying to keep in the half court. Marc Gasol had four fouls in the 3rd so he sat for a long while. But Pau had 15 straight points for Spain so it’s not like they were at a disadvantage. As usual the US relied on our up & down three point shooting. Durant was on fire. And Lebron continued his stellar SUPERGODPOINTFOWARDCENTER role. Rebounding. Facilitating. Defending bigs. Hitting 3’s. Ibaka was extremely under utilized during the entire olympic tournament. The US guard prevented the spanish guards for gettin into any rhythm. They did not hit a single 3 ptr the entire 2nd half. Which which seriously hindered their ability to get any significant lead. I’m certain if they had hit a fair percentage, they might’ve pulled the upset. They were back and forth until they could hit a shot. Then Lebron scored a quick 5 PTs on a dunk and step back trey. Which took a 4 pt lead to a 9pt lead. Durant nailed a couple 3’s and the game was sealed. The Spanish team cut the lead to 6 against the reserves in the final 30 seconds but it was just cosmetic. Plus Harden managed to miss 3 straight FTs to help the cause.
GOLD MEDAL BITCHES

México wins The Gold in Fútbol

20120811-092818.jpg

Mexico scored a goal within 30s of the start of the game! Holy fuck. A nameless idiot Brasil defender held the ball for no reason then made a lazy pass that was stolen and passed ahead. Then Peralta hit a sweet shot to the near post to open the scoring. For most of the game Mexico sagged back and played a defensive counter attack style. With their best offensive player out (Giovanni Dos Santos, whose half Brazilian) I wasn’t mad. Neymar never got loose in the first half. They swarmed him at every touch. Brasil made a huge mistake in not playing the 55million dollar man Lucas. When he came in late, brasil’s attack instantly got more aggressive and they scored. The first half was mostly a bore. But the 2nd?! Brasil came out with a vengeance determined to score. Neymar started getting loose. Making moves, passes and taking shots only world class players are allowed to get away with. But alas Mexico’s defense held strong. They sagged back and crowded box on just about every effort by the Selecao. Hulk was being quite fancy and crafty with the rock but couldn’t close the deal. Even took an ambitious shot on a free kick. Then in the 75th minute, with Brasil’s offensive line up in, Mexico scored on a set piece. Peralta met a cross unmarked for his 2nd goal. Brasil pressed. Mexico BARELY missed a 3rd goal on spectacular half chilena on an open goal. Hit top post. Brasil pressed again with Pato and Lucas in. Hulk got a nice goal on a breakaway with his weak foot. Then on a cross in the final moments of extra time Oscar missed a WIDE OPEN header to seal the gold for Mexico. Great final.
¡Viva México! ¡Oro, putas! Te quiero, bestia.

The week(e)nd

Finally saw the dark knight rises. It was fucking great. Anyone that said it was boring or gave it a bad review can go fuck a goat! I called that hoe being the Bawse *rick ross grunt* UUHH
Then finally fucking saw Ted. fucking HILARIOUS! Bestía shed some tears. Oh my poor little baby
And Sunday was her bday. I her her the best gift in the history of gifts (as I’m known to do). Plus a very endearing card I made with my own 2 hands. Even the paper! Ok maybe not the paper. But she had an awesome anniversary and I was happy to have shared in it. She’s amazing.

*and because it was part of HER weekend you can include the soccer we attended on Thursday.

At the old ball game: Real Madrid 5 Galaxy 1

20120803-070425.jpg
So I missed this game last year. You know the one where Cristiano the god scored 2 goals. And one where he destroyed the galaxy defense with his Fancy moves and scored a spectacular goal..
But I was in there this year! Accompanied by my wondiferous bestía y su madre. amazing company to say the least. I was upset to see the stars sitting out, at first. I mean Di Maria and Higuain started but where the fuck was Cristiano?! Anyway Di Maria was a FORCE. He easily could’ve had 3 goals and set up 2 more. But he scored just 1. It was an amazing left foot strike with plenty curve. Yada yada yada. CRISTIANO IS SPOTTED WARMING UP ON THE SIDELINES! It was like seeing Superman. If superman was a portuguese football god.
Fast forward to half time and Cristiano comes out warms up. Puts on a clinic with his fancy tricks. Which he makes look as effortless as fucking breathing oxygen. He got some nice moves off in the game. Came SUPER DUPER close to almost scoring on a Chilena. And he blew an easy effort off the left side of the woodwork. He was absolutely stunned he missed it. It happens. Amazing game. Wonderful time. Phenominal company.
