cheesy grub sandwiches

I first discovered this recipe here and I had to try it out! Since football season is here I thought that this would be the perfect hardy "football" food! It would be perfect for bringing in a crock-pot for tailgating or a home party.

recipe,

1 lb lean hamburger meat (80/20)

2 teaspoons Montreal steak seasoning 

1 teaspoon Worchestershire sauce 

2 tablespoons butter 

2 tablespoons flour 

3/4 cup milk 

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese 

salt and pepper to taste

In a skillet, brown ground beef and season with Montreal steak seasoning and Worchestershire. 

Drain off any rendered fat and set aside. 

In a saucepan, melt the butter and whisk in the flour. 

Allow to cook for 3-4 minutes over medium high heat until mixture is light brown. 

Slowly whisk in the milk and bring it to a boil. Continue whisking until smooth while it thickens. 

Remove it from heat and stir in the cheese until melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Pour the cheese sauce over the seasoned ground beef and stir to combine.

Jersey Junction

Last Saturday I teamed up with Carisa from Bunnies and Pearls and we had a little ice cream date! Jersey Junction has the best, i mean the best ice cream ever. [Particularly the cake batter flavor.] I had such a great time seeing parts of Grand Rapids that I haven't seen before! Since I recently moved to Grand Rapids she took me around East Grand Rapids and I couldn't believe how much it reminded me of Grand Haven. It hit a little close to home but it was great to see this little part of the city!

We had such a great day, it was filled with laughs, photo taking [which we don't take ourselves too seriously with..] and just getting to know each other and my new home. It's taking a bit to get used to you Grand Rapids but I think I kind of like you!

the bigger picture

Growth is confusing. Sometimes it's hard to realize that we're actually growing when we sometimes feel like we're falling apart. The awkward emotions come up. Anger, sadness, lost, being hystarical and sometimes depression but they all come up for a reason and they come to teach us a lesson and to help us grow. It's always hard to realize that whatever it is, it is a good thing and a lot of times we never see that for ourselves unless we have a teacher or a good book. Feeling gratitude is the hardest but yet the most important thing you can do for yourself. You'll go through growth but even though it doesn't seem that way it is.. All these emotions are is the process of change, we're expanding and growing larger than what we can handle at this moment we're opening up we're becoming more spiritually sensitive to everything around us. Congratulations you're not numb to the world, this is a good thing. When you grow you feel it, in a positive or negative manner. Change creates stress so don't worry, it's okay. Everything you experience may not be a pleasant feeling but don't worry, it's your growth and expansion. It can also be a confusing feeling, and the absolute most unpleasant feeling is you know somethings wrong but you don't know what is wrong, then it becomes irritating and annoying because you have no cognition of what is happening to you, don't worry it's your growth. Be in gratitude. You'll have times where it seems like your whole body is holding it's breath and you have no idea what your next step should be, just know this is all preparation for the bigger picture, the next step in your life, your evolution. Your new you is evolving and the bigger and better you is about to appear.

so, be in gratitude.
