How To Be A Housewife: Corn Pudding

Corn Pudding, circa Jan. 2015

 I haven't done one of my How To Be A Housewife blogs in awhile...obviously it's not working for me because I'm still slaving at the school house instead of being taken care by a rich sugar daddy.  Anyways, back in January for New Year's I was given the task of cooking corn pudding by The Giver of Life a.k.a. Mom.  During the two weeks we're out of school for Christmas I'm generally in a great mood and don't mind cooking so yeah.  My Mom has been making this since I was a kid and I've always enjoyed it.  I'm not sure if it's healthy but it taste good!

Ingredients...with homemade sour cream since we didn't have any.

Ingredients:  
1-15 oz. can whole kernel corn
1-15 oz. can creamed corn
1 cup of sour cream or oleo as the recipe calls it
2 eggs, beaten
Stick (1/2 cup) of butter, softened
1/4 cup sugar
8 1/2 oz. box of Jiffy corn muffin mix


How To Prepare:
1.  Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
2.  Soften, not melt, your stick of butter in the microwave.
3.  Beat eggs as if you are making scrambling eggs.
4.  Mix all of the ingredients together.  Pour into an 8 x 8 inch pan.
5.  Cook at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until fork comes out clean from the center.

Crappy shot but all the ingredients in one bowl.

All ready for the oven!

Finished product
Sorry it doesn't look like something Step Curry's wife made with the presentation and all.

Since I haven't posted anything in awhile I'm going to try and post the HOMEMADE red velvet cake a did despite the icing ruining all of my hard work.  This summer I'm also hoping to try some new things out since I have a little more time despite my second summer class happening and having to work these next few days.  See ya soon!

Friday Ramblings

It's Friday, so you know the deal...

• OH MAH GAWD!!!!  I've been gone so long from here!  My last post was back in December.  So much has gone on but watch me not remember any of it...
• This school year remained an emotionally draining one for me.  It was very rough on me emotionally, physically, and mentally.  I definitely questioned myself quite a few times and thought about just throwing up the peace sign.  Luckily I didn't or else I would be the teacher you see in pre-planning video that walks off the job.
• The two months my co-teacher was gone was hell on wheels.  I thought about getting pregnant just so I could take a two month vacation.
• I ended up getting transferred in my county to what people would say is a better school.  It was in the same position except with elementary school.  I jumped for joy when I found out.  
• I got all A's in my first semester of graduate school.  Praise God!
• I was on jury duty.  I sent a guy to jail.  #FearMe #LongestTwoDaysOfMyLife
• I got hired in another county to teach in my ideal position.  Guess who submitted a letter of resignation?
• I had the opportunity to go to the High Museum in Atlanta.  OMG I can't wait to go back. 
• I think I want to go on a three day juice cleanse.  Anyone ever had the Suja juice?  Anyone want to do it with me actually?
• I bought some golf clubs!  I figured it would be something fun to try during the summer and a great way to meet rich people in high places.  
• So y'all just gonna buy Creflo Dollar this $65 million private jet?  The Lord really must have sent y'all some serious messages because I just can't get with that.  Hopefully he sends y'all a message to help pay off my student loans too.
• My name has been featured #3 on the Top 15 Names of Girls Who Will Get Engaged In 2015.  Future fiance my ring size is a 5.5 and I prefer princess cut with white gold.
• Next summer I swear I'm not gonna work.  I need to take some time to myself because I need a break from these kids.
• Love & Hip Hop
• What is a "Meeting Of The Mothers?"  Only one person in this group is married to this man and the rest of y'all just laid down with a married man.  They are truly over glorifying themselves.
• Yung Joc has 8 kids?  Between four different women?  I guess he doesn't believe in wrapping it up.
• Then this dumb broad has the nerve to risk her own health and possibly get pregnant by him?  
• The heck is a "promisary" ring?  This must be a old playa type of thing.
• Why is this Mimi sex tape still a big deal?  Y'all knew that mess was planned.  There was nothing spontaneous about that.  
• Joseline just can't stop dressing like a stripper I guess.

• Let's take a moment and just appreciate Steph Curry's adorable daughter, Riley.  Made my ovaries tingle for a second...then I came back to my senses.  
• Now that being transracial is such an accepted thing I would like to announce that I will be living my life as a white woman from here on out.  My Mom has always said that she felt I related better to the white race and now I can finally be with my people.  #CreditScoreAboutToGoUp #LoanAboutToGetApproved #BlackMenAboutToFlockAfterMe
• Diddy has went and jumped on his son's strength and conditioning coach.  Jesus be a grade A lawyer right now.  He let that Harlem, New York come out of him.  #DontLetTheToothpickFoolYou #TakeThatTakeThat
• How are you gonna lie to me about being a teacher when I can go look up your certificate?  SMH...lying does not impress me.  
• Kids are starting to call me old indirectly.  This is what life has come to. 
• Is Michael Jordan ever gonna get his Oscar for Space Jam?
• Went to a conference for one of my summer classes and it was the BIGGEST waste of my time.  How do you talk about your life for 45 minutes of the 75 minutes session?  I came to learn about using arrays in my classroom not that I can see your parents' burial site while watching a tv show.    #WantMyTimeBack
• I hate when I hear people talking to babies in "baby talk."  All I can think about is how it's affecting their speech development.  Is it affect or effect?

• I need to go ahead and send J. Cole a graduation invite since he's always popping up at events for fans.  Think he'll come to the birth of my first child?  
• Speaking of J. Cole, his verse on Jeremiah's Planes always gets me.  I'm always so excited to rap it but afterwards I feel like I need to go to church and ask for forgiveness.
