Today is my good friend, Sara’s birthday. Too bad you all don’t know Sara, she is so damn fun to be around!
She’s loving, funny, smart, wittey, a big smart ass, honest, insightful and has the biggest heart.
We’ve been friends for about 5 years now, but it feels like a lifetime, and I can’t imaging my life without her. Its too bad, though, that we live in different states. But we try not to let that stop us, we make all the effort possible to visit each other at least once a year.
Since I love her and she has a great personality I know she’s won’t get mad at me for sharing some of my favorite Sara-moments.

When cooking Chorizo doesn’t work for Sara she didn’t give up. No! She just hung it around her neck until someone helped her figure out what to do with it!
She can be a little bit Gangsta when she’s gotta be, yo!
In Mexico, she was bringing sexy back, seriously.
She knows how to shop for Road Trip munchies.
And she’s not afraid of a PARTY!
I love you, Sara! I hope you have a great birthday! See you soon!

OMG, Carrie, I could never dog Sara like that! I’m gonna see her in July & she’ll either kick my ass, drown me or hide my beer! lol
Let me make something clear, even when Sara was heavier than she is now, she was always cute & not like a BIG ASS COW! She’s always been smaller than me! lol I just don’t want anyone to think I’m baegin’ on my homie! Love ya girl!

Happy Birthday to your friend Sara!!
Oh – and I make chouriço all the time (that is what we call it) because I’m from New Bedford where everyone is portuguese. I FINALLY found it at my local Harris Teeter after 2 years of being away from it. I seriously brought a cooler and bought ice to take it back to NC the last time I was home in New England, lol.
Here is a simple and fabulous recipe. Sautee some onions and peppers for a few minutes till they are soft, cut up the chourico into thin slices and toss them in. Mix together for about 6 minutes until the chourico is cooked on both sides, but still juicy. Throw on top of a bed of rice and voila! An easy 10 minute meal that is to die for! I don’t think I’ve eaten it any other way!

I love how her cheeks get flushed when she drinks.
And anyone who brings snacks on a road trip is a-okay with me!
