Love Save the Empty by Erin Mccarley

Little girls don't know how to be sweet girls.
Mama didn't teach me.
Little boys don't know how to treat little girls.
Daddy didn't show me.

Face down, on top of your bed.
Oh why did I give it up to you?
Is this how I shoot myself up high,
Just high enough to get through?

Again, the false affection.
Again, we break down inside.
Love save the empty.
Love save the empty, and save me.

Sad boy, you stare up at the sky
When no one's looking back at you.
You wear your every last disguise;
You're flying, then you fall through.

Again, the false attention.
Again, you're breaking inside.
Love save the empty.
Love save the empty, save me.
Love save the empty.
Love save the empty.

Stars feel like knives,
They tell us why we're fighting.
Storm, wait outside.
Oh, love, hold us together.

Love, save the empty.
Love, save the empty.
Love, save the empty.
Love, save the empty, and save me.
And save me.

Emeril Trout Recipes

The trout recipe that I've tried twice is this one: Trout a la Meuniere......

Times:

Prep

5 min

Inactive Prep

--

Cook

20 min

Total:

25 min

Ingredients

• 4 (6-ounce) trout fillets
• 1 teaspoon salt, plus more for seasoning
• 1 teaspoon Essence, recipe follows
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 stick, cubed, softened unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon minced shallots
• 2 tablespoons white wine
• 1/4 cup lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
• Freshly ground pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.

Season the trout fillets with the salt and Essence. Lightly dredge the seasoned trout in the flour, shaking off any excess. Set a 10-inch saute pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil to the pan. Once the oil is hot, place the fish fillets in the pan, 2 at a time and cook for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes per side. Place the cooked fillets on an oven-proof platter and place in the oven while you cook the remaining fillets.

Once the fish are cooked, return the skillet to the stovetop and set on medium heat. Add the butter to the pan and once melted, add the shallots. As the shallots cook, and the butter stops foaming, about 30 seconds, add the white wine, lemon juice and parsley to the pan. Continue to cook for 15 to 20 seconds, swirling the pan occasionally. Season with salt and pepper and remove from the heat. Remove the fish from the oven and pour the sauce over top the fish. Serve immediately.

I also found this one Prosciutto Wrapped Trout. Damn this one is making my mouth water.

This one looks good also Mushroom and Artichoke Stuffed Trout.

Happy Mothers Day

I Love You Mom!









To all the moms out there....keep up the great work!

Bad Week

I think when things break they break in groups.
My garage door opener seems to be stuck in the pushed position. It so freaked me out to have the light on in the garage & the door opened by itself. (I thought of Ghosts first.)

One headlight is out in my sweet ride LOL My Geo Tracker:)

My XBOX got the dreaded Red Ring Of Death & is on it's way to repair.....Thank God for the 3 year extended warranty just for this issue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOW that is customer service & Verizon should take notes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My cell is still dropping calls & getting limited or no service. I have called uncounted times, placed no less than four help tickets.
They are trying to tell me that my hubby's cell an LG drops few calls & My Motorola drops tons that it is the type of phone I have. This is my second Motorola having the same issues.
I would agree with them if the rest of our neighborhood was not experiencing the same issues of dropped calls.
I had no problems for nine months, never had a dropped call. For the last two months forget it.
Every help ticket they say they fixed it & I & my neighbors are still with crappy phone service!!!!
Verizon False advertises about having this awesome network behind you. They need to put up a new tower or something.......If I was a betting woman *Heh* I'd guess something broke & they are trying to keep from spending the money to fix it.
I'm so frustrated........It makes me wonder who's cell tower is right across the street?

The Red Ring of Death-XBOX360

I've heard the horror stories about The Red Ring of Death
but I never thought it would happen to me.
My XBOX being down makes me very sad! I don't think I can be with out it for long.
I will have to spend hours with tech support.
(Which I have also been spending with Verizon's tech support)
Things are breaking around here faster than I have time to get them fixed.

Excitment From the Drive Home

We came up behind a white

Lamborghini.

This car was only doing fifty miles an hour. We went by him & I was really eying that car! About five minutes later we hear this engine revving noise. Here came that sweet ass car....racing a motorcycle. The bike went by us on the right, the Lamborghini went by us on the left.
He then slowed down again for a few miles. When he kicked it in gear the second time he was gone fast. *sigh* I never saw him again.

We went to Traverse City

We went to visit my Dad & Deb in Traverse City. We had a great time.
That area of Michigan is amazingly beautiful. The bay was the color of Caribbean ocean most of the time.
We did a trip to the Mission Point Lighthouse. We went back to the trout farm in East Jordan. (It was closed last time we were there:() This was Deb's first time fishing. She did awesome. Yes I caught the biggest fish. My trout was 7 pounds.
We topped it all off with a wine tasting tour. That wine goes to your head pretty damn fast I gotta say. The best place that gave you lots of free tasting was Leelanau Cellars. At one of the newer vineyards Silver Leaf, they feature local artists. I fell in love with Sharon Rusch Shavers paintings. Someday maybe I could afford one.
I have to mention the excellent eats A place called Boon's. Oh & Happy Hour something LOL!
Here's some pictures.....

& some Video


I want to thank my GF for baby & house sitting! You did awesome!
