churro fries

November 28, 2011

Look at my wit! Look at my skill! Look at how I took two different types of food and made them into one!

Thanksgiving is almost upon us, people! Does that freak you out? It shouldn’t; it really shouldn’t.

I’m starting anew.
With the way life has been lately, it’s the only way to go. I’m not complaining — in fact, I’ve learned more about myself, about others, about life in general these past couple of months than I have in a long time, and I am grateful. It’s another step in the process of [...]
