Fiesta Friday

Well there really is no actual fiesta but I am actually doing things tonight.   While I usually would sit in Barnes and Noble and find ten books I want or go to the movies with Colton (which is usually the highlight of my weekend, how lame, i know) I will be doing not one, not two, but THREE things tonight. My roommate, Jolie's, birthday is today and her family, who I absolutely adore, is coming into town to celebrate.  Also my good friend Sarah is having her going away party which although sad for us is amazing for her.  She will be graduating soon and moving to St. Louis for 2 years, teaching at an elementary schoool for Teach for America.  I am so excited for her.  Therefore I had planned (emphasis on planned) on trying to bake a little something for both of these occasions.  I wanted to try to make the almond-berry coffee cake from Posie Gets Cozy.  I have saved this recipe for a long time now just waiting for the perfect time to make it, which will now be even longer. so sad. 

But the reason I will not be baking this bunt cake of amazingness tonight is because I got a ticket to sit with Jolie's family at the A&M vs. UT Baseball game.  Note that both of my roommates are Diamond Darlings (I guess bat girls) for the A&M Baseball team and I have NEVER been to a single game, so I guess its about that time.  So here I am off to my night of many events. 

 

Can anyone say free food

I am so thankful for Oprah and her smart use of her money sometimes, like today.  She has released a coupon for KFC where you get a whole meal FREE. I am all for any type of free thing, especially food.  Oh I can't wait to go use my coupon with Colton tonight when he gets done working on his senior project for the day. 

Today is going to be a good cheap date night.  KFC for dinner FREE with our coupons and a $1.00 movie from our redbox down the street.  Now that is living on a college budget (which I am usually bad at)

Thanks Oprah for feeding me.
