Lazy Blogging Monday

Well, guys, I don't have a lot to report today. I've been pretty busy making preparations for my little one's upcoming birthday party, but I don't have any pictures ready or anything to tell you about that. I kinda wanted to do an political opinion piece now that the elections are over, but gosh, if you're like me, you need a little break from the onslaught, so I'll hold off on that. So today is lazy blogging day. Yep! I am going to use the work of others as material for my blog today. A friend of mine on Facebook shared this link, and now I'm going to share it with you:

Baked Fundamentalist Macaroni and Cheese

There's a couple of reasons I shared this. One, it's pretty funny, no lie. Be warned, he drops the F-bomb once, if you're sensitive to that kind of language. On the whole though, the article is pretty tame. Secondly, I shared this because it sounds like an OMG tasty recipe, even if you're constipated for a week because of all the cheese. Finally, I shared this because he and I have the exact same opinion on macaroni and cheese. I see all these recipes (Pinterest, I'm looking at you) that call for mustard, or bread crumbs, or ham, or some other such nonsense in your macaroni and cheese, and I hate it. That's not macaroni and cheese, dang it! Now I admit, I fix it differently than he does. I have two versions, depending on who I'm fixing it for. One is a baked variety for my Southern friends and family, the other is a creamy stovetop variety for my husband and little girl. The main ingredients in both of these varieties are macaroni and cheese; they comprise roughly 85% of the dish. There are no meats, no crazy spices, no vegetables. Simple. Pure. And that's how it should be.
