SNOW CONES and Paychecks
For anybody who has been reading my blog since February, or has talked to me on the computer or on the phone or in person since I moved to Dallas, you know that I have been craving a snow cone for about 2 months now. It wasn't helping the fact that I was being told by my mother that my dad and her have gone to get snow cones on more than one occasion since I have moved.
You would think in a big metropolis like DFW that I could find a freaking snow cone stand... but alas, until today I had been a complete and utter failure in my quest.
Many of you know that I have been unemployed since November. Yes, I know I have been working at Panera Bread since January but my salary there wasn't even covering my gas and groceries. I finally found a new job at the end of March and I started here at "TheLiqourDistributor" on the 18th of April.
Well, let me just tell you that today has been a good day... not ONLY did I finally find a snow cone stand, and yes I stopped and got a small Pina Colada with Cream... it is also PAYDAY! Woo Hoo!
Well, it's 4:20 now and its time for me to leave to get to class. Tonight is my Southwestern Regional Cuisine class and we are covering my favorite place of all tonight... TEXAS. We are making Chili, Jalapeno Cornbread, Chicken Fried Steak & Cream Gravy and Mashed Potatoes. YUM! I will post pictures later this evening when I get home.

I know what you mean about the snow cones. I've been craving one for over two
years. I can't find one anywhere in Atlanta. Don't you remember how they were on
every corner in Houston. Those were the days...
