I’m in my 20s and living in Austin, TX. I love (in no particular order) music, animals, food, drinking, laughing and generally enjoying life.

It was a blend of 2 teas and they sold us the canister, etc. We got a pound of loose leaf tea leaves and one canister. The total (with a 10% discount) was $77!!!!!!! I think we almost had a heart attack when she rang it up. In what world do tea leaves cost a small fortune?! We are going to drink like kings until the damn leaves run out.</p>http://www.jenmcnasty.com/post/22407014851http://www.jenmcnasty.com/post/22407014851Fri, 04 May 2012 17:52:31 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3irzzbn9a1qzbw4po1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Yes a chocolate/ peanut butter/ Oreo donut DOES exist!! @ Voodoo donuts in Portland.</p>http://www.jenmcnasty.com/post/22405802566http://www.jenmcnasty.com/post/22405802566Fri, 04 May 2012 17:33:35 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3h377bjBU1qzbw4po1_500.jpg"/><br/> Couldn't cook w/out some liquid courage<br/><br/> <img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3h377bjBU1qzbw4po2_500.jpg"/><br/> Bleu cheese steak topping<br/><br/> <img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3h377bjBU1qzbw4po3_500.jpg"/><br/> The delicious cuts of meat!<br/><br/> <img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3h377bjBU1qzbw4po4_500.jpg"/><br/> Finished product on broil pan<br/><br/> <img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3h377bjBU1qzbw4po5_500.jpg"/><br/> Plated meal<br/><br/> <img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3h377bjBU1qzbw4po6_500.jpg"/><br/> Bon appetit!<br/><br/> <p>Sean had a birthday last Monday. Instead of wanting to go to a birthday dinner out with friends, he really really just wanted me to make him a steak. Why you might ask? Because I haven’t the slightest clue how to*. In fact, approaching the meat counter at a grocery store terrifies me. He gave me an opt out the day of saying I could just get it from a restaurant if it was too much. But I decided to accept the challenge.</p> <p>I knew I wanted to do some kind of topping. I found <a href="http://www.helium.com/items/685423-recipes-steak-with-bleu-cheese-topping%20" target="_blank">this</a> recipe for bleu cheese topping and went with it. At the meat counter I asked for delicious steak I could broil (my cooking confidants decided grilling with coals would be too much for me and all I had access to was a broil pan. My first time broiling anything!) and he suggested the most expensive meat they sold. Of course I went with it, and it ended up being an awesome decision. </p> <p>The actual cooking process wasn’t as bad as I expected. In fact Sean commented on how good a job I was doing appearing calm. When in fact, it was pretty painless. He of course said the steak was so amazing. I thought it tasted pretty damn good myself. I finished feeling accomplished, albeit a bit worried. As he said himself “Now you’ve proved you can do it!”. </p> <p>*Ok this doesn’t count when I’d get the cheapest cut of beef in college, “marinated” it with $1 meat tenderizer seasoning, and basically fried it on the stovetop. </p>http://www.jenmcnasty.com/post/22383759808http://www.jenmcnasty.com/post/22383759808Fri, 04 May 2012 09:58:47 -0500<a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/jennagoudreau/2012/04/24/why-we-need-to-take-20-somethings-seriously/2/">Why we need to take 20-somethings seriously</a>: <p>Very interesting article about the importance of your 20s.
