Man was I tested.

Kind of a funny story, first off, my weekend was a success. Relaxing, read (X-Factor Epic Collection Vol 1), watched a movie (Transformers One) played games, etc. Friday was a hard day at work, a day where everything bad that could have happened, happened. Go to the grocery store after, avoided the liquor section (that was a win I think), I really wanted Queso. I’ve never made it before so I got the ingredients and start it when I get home. At this point my head is cloudy from stress, I’m tired, and I can’t lie, a drink sounds amazing. I tell myself “nope I’m not drinking no matter what this weekend” and continue to cook the queso. Everything is ready and time for the cheese, so I throw in the entire block of Queso Fresco and pepper jack, stir for a good 10 minutes and the cheese turns into rubber and will not melt. I fucked up the queso, wasted the ingredients and effort and boy did that drink sound even better. I looked up every way that I could possibly save it and nothing worked. Threw everything out in frustration, cursed my lungs out, opened my fridge with cold beer in my mind, grabbed sandwich stuff, forced it down pretending it was delicious queso, started reading right after until I was tired enough to fall asleep.

The craving lessened the next day and Saturday and Sunday were really nice. There is hope my friends, just don’t try and cook something you’ve never cooked before, tired and stressed as hell.
