Cheeseballs, Children, and Coochies

There are three things I wanted to cover in my post for tonight.

1. I'm still obsessed with Amy Sedaris and baking, cooking, and being a hoot of a host. Honestly, after watching some of her appearances on Letterman, I find myself being more quirky, relaxed, and confident, which works pretty well on dates.



I've become particularly in love with her cheeseball recipe, and will be making more once I start hosting parties (aka getting a dinner table and bar stools)



Amy Sedaris' Li'l Smokey Cheeseball

2 cups of shredded smoked Gouda cheese
16 ounces of cream cheese
1/2 cup of butter
2 1/2 tablespoons of milk
2 1/2 teaspoons of Steak Sauce
1 cupped of chopped nuts

Bring all ingredients to room temp. Add milk and steak sauce and beat until completely blended. Chill over night. Turn it into a ball the next morning. Roll it in the nut mixture. Serve it room temp, spread on a Ritz cracker.



It's delish. I even had a few friends sample it and they all loved it. They were all drunk and high at the time, so it could've tasted horrible and they would've eaten it all up anyway, but they claimed it was very good.

2. I was eating some cheeseball and crackers on my way to class today and I'm learning a lot from my child therapy class. If you don't know this about me already, I do not get along with children. Even growing up, I wanted to play with older kids. I never babysat. And for the most part, if a baby looks at me, they will probably start screaming. I'm just not good with kids!

I started noticing lately how men interact with kids. A few weeks ago my mother and I were watching this HUGE BEEFY CUT military babe on the beach with his wife and 3 girls all under the age of 6. When they packed up the beach gear the father squatted down to the girls' eye levels and proceeded to tell them that as they walk back to the hotel, they need to make sure not to walk carefully and not kick any sand on anyone or anyones blanket. Almost every time he talked to one of them, he squatted down to their level. I learned today how important it is for kids to have something on their level, because the world was built for much taller people...

I can still relate since I constantly have to jump and hit something to knock it down off of a cabinet.

3. And since I'm in a crafter mood, I've decided for the holidays and v-day, I'm going to start working on vagina projects. Making felt vagina dog and cat toys and vagina pillows. I hope one day to come up with a great vagina print apron. I think I'm going to start and see if I can sell these products on etsy. So far I've only seen a few shitty felt vaginas on there and some pendants and necklaces.



The uterus pillow is pretty cool though



I'm so inspired! Lots of things on my mind!
