Having fun in Phoenix

After spending a few days in New York, I am now on my second leg of my trip, Phoenix Arizona. Will be spending 2 weeks here. The change from New York to Phoenix is a culture shock to me. And it is so amazing to see the different ways how people do things in different places. I keep on wanting to hand my debit card to the cashier, causing panic in them. Apparently you are supposed to swipe your card yourself in the machine at the till, and they almost treat it like it is a turd when I hand it to them ha ha ha. We went to the Home Depot, and to my surprise, Mike paid with no cashier at the checkout. You just scan your goods yourself, then swipe your card and off you go.

I bought and life box for the iPhone David gave me after my Nokia got trashed, thank you David. However, the charge lead could no longer fit, so I had to get a new one. And what color could be more appropriate than pink.

Tonight I will treat the Bruno family to South African Mac and cheese (has bacon and egg and hot dogs in). With some home made coffee ice-cream. I had my old trusty leather jacket’s main zipper replaced, and are fixing the other zips. Funny, I asked to have the other zips replaced, and the shop is just reluctant in doing it. They loosen the zip, and replace the slider, then sow the zipper up again, which I think is more work than just replacing the whole zip.

We are planning a trip to the Grand Canyon. Will post some pictures when we get there.

      One packet of macaroni.
      6 eggs.
      One packet if bacon.
      Lots of cheese, grated.
      One to two tomatoes.
      About 4 to six hot dogs.

      Cook macaroni in pot. Fry bacon and hot dogs in pan (chopped up).
      When both done, take macaroni and place in mixing bowl. Add eggs, (already beaten). Then add grated cheese and bacon and hit dogs. Mix all together, then place in glass pirex oven proof “tray”. Put grated cheese over top if Mac mix, and if wanted put some slices of tomato on top. Place in pre-heated oven (450 degrees) for about 20 to 30 min. Periodically check if eggs are cooked by taking a knives or fork and making a small hole to see the bottom of the mix. Taste test now and again is mandatory ha ha ha. When done, enjoy.
