Wearing high heels anywhere is so unrealistic. Especially while drinking. I’ve figured out, my toes almost always swell when I drink. Seriously, they get hot, swell up, and get tingly. Like when you’re on an airplane. Or pregnant. At least that’s what I’ve heard. I’ve never been with child.
I say this because I’m watching Sex and the City. But also, because I wore heeled boots out a week ago and my toes were crying after 2 or 7 shots of vodka. And when my toes cry, I whine. I’m an only child, so I’m sure you can imagine how often whining occurs. Answer: #fartoooften. I hate myself sometimes. And my toes. My chubby, drunk toes.
Speaking of drinking times, as you may know, the season finale of The Bachelor was on the other night and that meant girls night. And girls night includes food, more food, drinks, and more drinks. And gossip. It’s the best part. We decided for the finale, we would drink every time someone on the show said ‘connection’ or ‘love’. So I’m sure you can imagine how many drinks were downed. But that’s not what’s important here….
Sean chose….Catherine. WTF?!?! Are you serious? I was screaming at the TV. I’m not sure if it was the booze talking, but I was mad either way. This show is already complete bullsh*. I mean every single girl thinks she is in love with a guy after a couple weeks. And when I say a couple weeks, I am exaggerating. But then they make him pick the wrong person?! After telling us he’s a born again virgin?? Are you freaking serious? Way to make the Bachelor a COMPLETE bore. I mean come on. I was in pissed off-thrown for a loop-shock. It was so disappointing. I think he picked Catherine because he knew Lindsay would jump his bones. And he’s trying to keep it in his pants after living 28 years. I guess he made the right decision. Bastard.
I’m almost positive gluten poisoned me. Seriously. After eating gluten, then drinking a bottle of Kim Crawford, my stomach is f*cked. I am resisting to blame it on the alcohol. That would be out of my system by now. But this gluten from last week is haunting me. I’m pretty sure gluten is a parasite and this parasite is making babies in my insides that are very hungry children. Most are. And now they are drunk parasite children. What I’m trying to say here is, my insides hate me. I’m staying away from sugar, alcohol, and new restaurants. My life just got boring, didn’t it? Damnit.
My Meat Sauce I Put On Everything
Ingredients

Instructions
- Heat up a large saucepan over medium heat, add a couple tablespoons of fat of choice then add minced garlic cloves, the bell peppers and onion along with a little salt and pepper to the pan.
- Move vegetables around until onions become translucent.
- Add ground chicken and bulk italian sausage to the saucepan and break up the meat.
- When meat has begun to cook through, add the spices.
- When meat is almost done cooking, pour in the two cans of tomato sauce.
- Salt and pepper once more, then reduce heat and let simmer for 5-7 minutes.
- When all the flavors are well mixed, add the chopped fresh basil, mix well, and serve!
- Easy peasy! Put on mushrooms, brussel sprouts, spaghetti squash, eggs, acorn squash, really anything you want. Or eat it cold. It’s pretty damn good cold.

This recipe looks awesome. I have a sh*t ton of whole tomatoes that I need to use. Do you think I could substitute the canned tomato sauce with fresh tomato? Also, do you know if this freezes well?
yes and yes!
Went to Sprouts and bought all the ingredAmints ( ; and the sauce is a simmerin’ Looks super tasty and it was easy breezy to make. yay! ( :
Okay…I snuck a taste. It has a fresh garden-y flavor to it. Now…what to put it on…lightly steamed broccoli…a bed of spinach…?? I may add a handful of raw bell peppers as a topper for some crunch. Sooo Glad I found your Site!! ( :
This is seriously one of my favorite recipes of yours. It’s now in my weekly rotation. You’re right, you can put it on anything– green beans, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, spaghetti squash, baby spinach– whatever. It’s also good solo. Thank you!
Just made this and it’s freakin’ awesome!! Had to post. Even my boyfriend who eats the same thing everyday loved it and is ready to change up his diet.
Do you think I could use chicken sausage instead of pork and maybe ground turkey or beef instead of chicken? Random substitutions, I know, but ground pork often doesn’t agree with me. I’m just starting to transition into Paleo (with out the support of the rest of my household 🙁 ) but I love all of your recipes I’ve tried so far. THANKS!
im sure it would still taste great with any of those substitutions!
I didn’t have tomato sauce the night I made this, so I just put everything else together and ate it straight up with no sauce. It was amazing! It is a good idea to keep this on hand and serve it with eggs too! I am on day 12 of the DSD so I need a way to spice up the eggs!! Love the recipe!!
Subbed in beef and kangaroo mince because that’s all there was at the store – bloody awesome! We had it on beans and I did brussel sprouts for myself because the fella doesn’t like em (sacrilege I know!!). Yummers all the way.
I made this sauce last night and we had it over brussel sprouts. I also made some quinoa for the husband so it wouldn’t just be meat & veggies. He loved it and that’s huge cuz he does all the cooking and is super critical of mine. He said it had that more-ish feeling as he went for seconds!! Thanks so much for making me look like a superstar! Oh and I love your blog and your sharp wit. 😉
Hey, had a Catherine sighting. I work near where they live and she still had the ring on. I’m with you, though, thought it was the wrong pick, but who am I to judge. I still can’t figure out why I watch that show and cry like a damn baby at every damn “proposal” show.
