The most gratifying list ever

I am sitting in my room listening to some Fergie, while I think about how thankful I be for all the little things in life like the soft moose pillow that is located under my gluteus maximus.

Be grateful for the little things in life.

Recently I was browsing the Internet and found a video that made me take a minute to think about all the things I have to be grateful for. In this video there is a veteran who is at a fast-food restaurant and for the life of me I can't remember which one, but in the video the man asks if the restaurant offers military discount. Then a few seconds later this women behind him says something along the lines of that is so ungrateful. After the man hears this he tells the woman that she should be grateful that she gets to go home every night to her family who she knows is safe. I added the video link in case you wanted to watch it.

Food, Glorious Food

Omg it's time to talk about the most amazing coveted item in the entire world... FOOD. Today Chef Dylan is going to teach you how to make CALAMARI, but first let me tell you how good it is: it's so crispy, juicy, and flavorful.

How to Make Calamari

Step 1: Buy INGREDIENTS 

• Squid
• 2 cups of Milk
• 3 Eggs
• 2 cups of Flour (Not Flower that would not taste good)
• Oil
• Assorted spices

Step 2: Prepare, Cut, and Clean you're ingredients (Cause we don't want that ratchet squid)

Step 3: Insert Squid into a bowl filled with 2 cups milk after letting the mixture thicken for 5 minutes and let it soak for 4 hours (Optional add lemon juice to the milk)

Step 4: Insert 2 cups of flour and mix it with 1 teaspoon of salt and one teaspoon of black pepper in a separate bowl 

Step 5: Beat 3 eggs in a separate bowl until you think it is Perfect and I mean Perfect.  I don't really know what this means, but it sounds great.

Step 6: Now comes the fun part: we get to prepare the fryer with oil (Heat over medium/360 degrees F)

Step 7: Next we want to remove the squid from the milk mixture and place it in the beaten eggs. Then, right after putting them in the eggs, you want to transfer them to the flour.

Step 8: Finally, we want to place them in the fryer for about 4 minutes or until they are brown and crispy.

Step 9: Enjoy your tasty calamari!
