They're saying it could get mighty ugly tonight, which means we're making space in the garage so we can get all of the cars in and clearing out the tornado room. Yes, we only have a room under the stairs, like Harry Potter. Basements are almost unheard of in Texas. Personally, I think that's rather dumb. I mean, if you live in Tornado Alley, you'd think they'd provide shelter.<br /><br />As for the boots, yes, they can get warm, I suppose. It was only in the 80's the day of the gala and the ballroom was nicely air conditioned, so it wasn't a problem. If you're wearing a sundress, though, it kind of balances out. That said, I'm one of those people that if my feet are hot, I'm hot. If they're cold, I'm cold. Perhaps I should invest in some cooling socks. Do they make such a thing?Mindy Obenhaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15049730175697756032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-42724542992280369612016-04-26T13:39:34.813-04:002016-04-26T13:39:34.813-04:00Do y'all like it with green peas?

It's a far cry from the sweaty jeans and t-shirt I was wearing earlier that day. <br /><br />Yes, there's plenty of meat and cheese, so the guys love it. No froo-froo food for them.

Though now that you've got me thinking I used to make these really neat rice, cheese, grated carrots, tomato, eggs casserole that was yummy. Must try to find something similar online. Rats -- now I'm craving a casserole.

They go real well with lace dresses as well as denim. Even sundresses.<br /><br />I understand you questioning the tortillas. I don't make my layers real thick. They might overlap a bit at edges but otherwise, each layer is just one tortilla thick, so it's not much different than, say, what a lasagna noodle is to lasagna. Only with a different flavor.Mindy Obenhaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15049730175697756032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-49262891134619590412016-04-26T08:58:12.585-04:002016-04-26T08:58:12.585-04:00Tuna noodle casserole with potato chip topping.......Tuna noodle casserole with potato chip topping.... Now there's some comfort food, Mary Cate. Although I think my husband might agree with you. Just one too many as a kid. <br /><br />Now pot pies, those are truly comfort food to me. Even if the come from the frozen food section of the grocery store. I think they just bring back find memories. I've only made a homemade one once or twice.<br /><br />The best part of wearing the boots with the dress was that my feet didn't hurt.

Denim would fit the bill, right? Unless I'm going to a Boots and Bowties Gala - but you pretty much have to be in Aggie-land for that, don't you? It sounds like you had a great time.<br /><br />This casserole looks so good. I've often seen recipes using corn tortillas like this, but I've never been brave enough to try them. This might be the dish to debut that skill. :)Jan Drexlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609332074458434806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-67328376684592555422016-04-26T06:32:56.108-04:002016-04-26T06:32:56.108-04:00Good morning, Mindy.

I think it's reaction to my mom making so many tuna noodle casseroles with potato chips. <br /><br />I tend to go more with pot pies than casseroles, but this one sure does look good.<br /><br />I love the photo of you in the dress and cowboy boots. That's a look I could get down with. ;)Cate Nolanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10424872139114718902noreply@blogger.com
