october ketchup

ok so i decided instead of doing one big recap post, im gonna do a few smaller ones. i dont know about y'all but when i see one huuuuge post on a blog, i tend to scroll right over it! (sorry!) i guess i should start recapping in october since thats when i left off!

voodoo fest!
so.much.fun.
we have gone 4 years in a row now and it is always a blast!
we have seen some amazing bands over the years and this year
was no different. i was veryyy thankful to discover florence & the
machine in midsummer and she quickly became one of my favorite
artists ever, so i was super psyched when she was added to the lineup!
we also saw metric, muse, ozzy osbourne, drake and some dj's.
we drank, ate, sang at the top of our lungs and walked around til our legs hurt.
cant wait to go back this year!

these are totally outa order for some reason, sowwies.
I will be back in a couple days for the november recap.
i promise im here to stay this time! :)

Add in everything from the cans! Add in beef stock and let simmer
for 15-20 minutes....

This is the first meal I ever made. A high school friend's mom used to make this for us and we would devour it! I first made it for my high school boyfriend the night of our Sadie Hawkins dance. And I've been making it ever since :) Hope you all like it!
