Best Things I Learned in 2019

Normally, I would do a "Best Things I Learned" post around my birthday in September. But since I'm trying to get back into a regular posting groove, I thought I'd end the year--and the decade--with a "Best Things I Learned" post instead. And I think we'll do it Outlander style to make it more fun. 

These are never in any particular order, because frankly, prioritizing these would just make my brain hurt. What can I say? I'm a teacher on Christmas break. I'm trying to give my brain a rest and I don't want to work that hard. So anyhoodle, Are you ready?

Outlander Crossover

Outlander is one of my all time favorite shows. But I love me some Baby Yoda too. A crossover could totally not work, don't you think?! [Wink, wink.] Oh well. It's a fun idea though. Just something for a laugh as I trudge through Droughtlander. 

Crock Pot Cream Cheese Chicken Chili

It's been quite a spell since I've posted a recipe or anything else here on the blog. Life has been crazy hectic since I started teaching again, so I've focused as much of my energy on teaching as possible.

So I'm taking a Tinalicious-sized step toward that goal by posting a new recipe. 

Crockpot Chicken and Noodles

It's been ages and ages since I've done a Tasty Tuesday recipe. Far too long, in fact. So Sherlock and I are going to remedy that.

Yes, really.

The Breakfast Club

Dear Mr. Vernon;
We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it was we did wrong. But we think you're crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us—in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain…

…and an athlete…
…and a basket case…
…a princess…
…and a criminal.
Does that answer your question?
Sincerely yours,
The Breakfast Club.

I can't believe one of my favorite shows of all time is ending forever. The Vampire Diaries will soon be no more. I've been dreading it all season. Living in denial. Now it's actually almost finished and I'm not emotionally prepared. Not even remotely. When that last episode ends...
