A Recipe for Jen

OREO TRUFFLE BALLS

1 Package of Oreos, normal ones, not double stuffed.  You can also use the reduced fat ones, and they are still good.

1 Thing of Cream Cheese.  I don't know how many ounces it is, I think 8, it's the small one.

1 Package of Baker's Chocolate.  The amount depends on how thick you want the outside chocolate coat to be, one is usually okay for me.

TO MAKE THEM:

Mix the oreos with the cream cheese.  I find it very effective to run over the oreos with my car(it tends to make them crumble up better).  Mix it with your  hands, or do whatever works for you. Stick the mixture in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes, it's easier to work with if it's cold.  Roll it up into small (or large, it don't matta!) balls and lay them on some wax paper.  Melt down your bakers chocolate and dunk your balls into it.  Once they are all coated, stick them back in the fridge for a bit.  You can choose to end there or if you wanna get really crafty, you can ground up almonds and sprinkle them over the top, or melt down some white chocolate and drizzle it over them (my personal favorite).  

It's a little messy but they are delicious and they will make you so popular!! 

Here's to you, Budget Cuts!

Thanks to you, I will not be stage managing As You Like It, directed by guest director Scott Gilbert.  I will now be stage managing Merry Wives of Windsor, and a re-vamp of Parallel Lives.  I'm not mad about stage managing Merry Wives, I'm sure it will be great, it just blows that we have to make so many sacrifices and the football team gets a budget INCREASE!  Bullshit Ron!!

I'm actually pretty excited about doing Parallel Lives again, because that show was off the chain. For reals.  Anyway.

Hey! This is my first post of the new year! Happy New Year!  I just watched the Golden Globes and was, of course, ecstatic for 30 Rock.  But where the hell did Slumdog Millionaire come from?? They tore it up.  And what was with Drew Barrymore's hair?  And HOW ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH did Meryl win NOTHING?!?  

Well, here's a micro update on my life so I can get back to figuring out what to do for my directing project (which has to be proposed tomorrow).  

1. Spinning is still kicking my ass.  Our teacher asked us (while were sweating bullets) if we had seen any good concerts lately, and no one said anything. So my smartass said, "I haven't been to any good concerts but I saw and awesome drag show the other day." ...... I. Got. SO. MANY. LOOKS. I forget sometimes that I'm in Louisiana.

2. Spanish. Oh Spanish. Satan spoke spanish. I'm certain of it.

3. I have a new love. And his name is Mickey Rourke.

That's it.
