Turn That Up! I Love That Song!

There are times when I'm in my car and a song comes on where I MUST blast the speakers. There are three songs that , in my opinion, are a must blast when they come on the radio.


The Breeders - Cannonball
The guitar on this song gets me every time, and I love Kim Deal's voice.



The Pixies - Where Is My Mind?
What more can I say? It's the The Pixies!



Mumford and Sons - Roll Away Your Stone
The banjo is the best part of this song. This song also does an awesome job of bringing you up to the peak then just blowing your mind! Dang these guys are so talented!



There is a fourth song which I'm debating if I should add it to this exclusive group...


The Airborne Toxic Event - All I Ever Wanted
This is a fairly new song by an up and coming band. They manage to combine strings and amazing guitars to create pure awesomeness!


What can I say I love to listen to music and I love it loud! My future hearing may be in jeopardy, but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

Ham, Egg, and Cheese with Green Sauce

People do many things to ward off the side effects that a night's sleep brings with it upon waking up in the morning. Some cure it with caffeine, others exercise (those are the crazy ones), but I like to curb said side effects with a big, warm breakfast burrito.


I don't know exactly when I became an addict of this portable food gem, but it was probably when my mom would make us breakfast at 4:30 in the morning before we hurried off to seminary and school. I could smell the bacon or ham, cheese, and eggs as I prepared for a long day at school. I knew when I had my fill that I could take on the world!


As I have gotten older, I have become somewhat of a breakfast burrito guru.  Whenever I see it on a menu, I have to order one.


Now a days, it's one of the only things that can wake me up in the morning. I usually order them from a little fast food restaurant near my workplace called Hilberto's. Past and present Arizona residents will know of the 'bertos' chain of low end fast food Mexican restaurants. People go to these familiar dives seeking cheap, fast, and very satisfying Mexican food. I usually order the ham, egg, and cheese burrito with green sauce. It's one of the best burritos I've ever had and it never disappoints.


So here's to you breakfast burrito. Fighter of morning grouchiness and filler of empty stomachs.
