You Inspire Me: The C.W.

:the C.W.:


This weeks inspirations come from Cat from the wonderful blog The C.W. She's a grammar Nazi, which means I'm going to try extra hard not to mess up in this post! Cat is a Navy wife, a singer...and trying to get her head around all-things-domestic. And she's Lebanese...just like my hubby! I think she's super sweet, which means you better check out her blog!

Cat's movie recommendation was The Emperor's New Groove. I honestly couldn't remember if I've ever seen this movie...

The movie is about a self-centered (and kinda annoying) emperor who wants to tear down a city to build a gigantic summer house. The next thing you know, he's a llama and all I can focus on is the fact that he's played by (the super annoying) David Spade.

I couldn't believe this was a Disney movie! It seemed more like a television cartoon...that should have been canceled. I wanted to stop halfway and pop in my favorite Disney movie...Aladdin! (For the record, Danny's favorite is The Little Mermaid!)

Cat's reading recommendation was Size 12 Is Not Fat by Meg Cabot. I love Cat for this recommendation. I've read this book before...and love everything by Meg Cabot. Yes, I have all the Princess Diary books and refuse to get rid of them!

Size 12 Is Not Fat is about ex pop-singer Heather Wells who has put on some weight. You'd think this would be a book about a weight struggle but it's actually a mystery book...involving elevator surfing. Interesting!

I like Meg Cabot's writing style..but this isn't one of my favorites by her. Heather whines alot about her weight making it seem that size 12 is actually fat. Not something you would get from the title!

Cat's food recommendation was amazing. Seriously, no other way to describe it. Thank goodness it made alot because  me and Danny couldn't get enough of it! Without further ado, I give to you....Mexican Pasta Skillet.


The only way I can explain it is....it's like American Chop Suey, with a Mexican twist. So, I guess that makes it Mexican Chop Suey. It was seriously delicious. Thanks so much for the recipe!

Thanks so much for the pasta recipe, I have a feeling I'll be making this ne alot!
