Cheese Fountain

     So, some silly things happened to me today and after contemplating whether or not to make a facebook status about it, I decided it wasn't worth it. I figured that people who actually care about my life (aka consistent blog readers) would get more of a kick out of this. So I'm going against the typical trend of my posts and simply writing about today's funny happenings. Hopefully you'll laugh, maybe you'll think I'm just a weird, (dumb) blonde, teenager...but I don't really care because I think it's hilarious. Ok ok enough rambling, here's my story...

     It all started out like my typical school day. I woke up at 5:00am (I'm the first in the shower so I have hot water...and it's only fair being that my hair's the longest). Anyways, I shower and go through my morning routine as usual. Then I arrive at school at 6:45 and get out at 1:50. So here I am at home....with my cute, little grandma. Sometimes I'll come home exhausted and crash on our couch in front of the TV and watch my recorded shows; rather, today was one of those days where I was wide awake and slap happy. Those of you that know me well enough, would understand that my version of slap happy would resemble someone that's drunk. But it's like I tell my friends: I don't need to be drunk to make people laugh and have a good time. Back to the story....here I am in my kitchen (not only was I slap happy, but I was also hungry). My  friends will also tell you that I crave food like a pregnant woman, and today that craving was bean dip. Now I've never made bean dip before, but I'm always cooking so I decided to venture out and come up with my own recipe. These were the ingredients I found and as a result, decided to use: a can of organic refried beans, shredded cheese, sour cream, and taco sauce....potential for a killer bean dip right there!
     First things first, I opened up the can of organic refried beans. I got out a bowl and proceeded to open the can and spoon the beans into the bowl. (Those of you who have ever used canned refried beans can only imagine the smell of these things) I love refried beans, but I never knew how bad they smelled right when you open them...I guess it wasn't as bad as the horrid farts that follow, but still. Anyways, the only thing I can compare it to, based on the looks and the smell of the beans, is cat food. Here's where things get funny. My grandma is watching me scrape out the refried beans, so I get the idea to turn the can's label away from her and convince her that I'm getting cat food to feed the stray cat in our neighborhood (there is no stray cat by the way). From what I read on her disgusted face, she had bought it and I reaped the benefits. Her face was enough to make me laugh til my abs hurt. But to be mature (?) I stopped myself and put the "cat food" in the microwave to heat it up. While that was happening I pulled out the bag of shredded cheese from the fridge. (Don't forget I'm slap happy..) I hold the cheese out in front of me with both hands and start dancing with it as I make up a song about bagged up shredded cheddar cheese. My grandma is laughing and telling me I'm crazy and I tell her that she's just old and not in tune with this generation's music (she knows I'm only kidding..we were having fun). Just as I begin screaming the chorus of my cheese song and continue dancing around my kitchen, the zipper thing on the bag opens and shredded cheese showers down on the kitchen counter and my hair, then falls on the floor between the toes of my bare feet! I guess I'll also mention that I'm not a big fan of cheese unless it's melted...otherwise it's like eating rubber. Everything about cheese is gross, but I'm starting to aquire more of a taste for it; that's besides the point. So here I am, covered in cheese, being laughed at by my grandma, in total shock of what I'd just done. I stood there frozen for a minute before shaking off my feet and cleaning up my mess.
     There you have it...that's my funny story. I'll conclude by saying that my bean dip was amazing. I had a layer of hot refried beans, a shredded cheese layer, sour cream layer, little bit of taco sauce drizzled on top, then a final layer of refried beans topped with shredded cheese for a mouth-watering presentation. ( I really need to stop watching cake boss. lol)  So whether you laughed at my expense, smiled to yourself as you read this, or simply read it and officially think I'm weird....I hope you enjoyed it. I only have a year and a couple months until I exit my teenage years and move on to "adulthood." I'm not trying to grow up anytime soon. Besides, I think God laughs right along with me and is more than proud of his crazy little daughter. That in itself makes me smile! I can't even describe in words how comforted and blessed I truly am. He gives me just enough strength to make it through each day, and He fills me with soo much joy...today was definitely joyful to say the least!
    That's all there is to it....maybe I'll make a habit of posting more about the silly moments of my life. What are your thoughts on that?
     Even when I'm with my friends in person, they'll tell you that I'm always pretending to be dumb or I'll act like I don't know something and look stupid but it's really because I simply enjoy making people laugh, I promise!
    You know what they say..."there's blonde, and then there's Julie"    :)
