Gun and Meat Update

Well, I shot a gun. All in all the experience was stressful. I'm going to do it again because I'm interested in why people love it so much. Everybody says it's stress relieving? I'm going to shoot a revolver next time.

I also recently ate real Texas BBQ. All in all the experience was high calorie, low cost, and tolerably unhygienic. The chicken was really fatty, the sausage was delicious but suspicious, the yams were the love of my life for 5 minutes, and the green beans were way nasty. I'm going to eat it again because the pulled pork looked really tasty and I like all the corn bread they give you.

This weekend I'm going to look into buying cowboy boots.

BUT DON'T WORRY. I registered today to vote remotely in the upcoming Canadian election. I haven't TOTALLY forgotten my roots.

Oh, I want cowboy boots too! Buy me some for Christmas! And a hat too, please!

Do people actually wear them there? Just to go to the store or whatever?

Haha! Mmm bbq! Have you had sweet brown sugar beans yet? It's a must with brisket!

Also, new boots can be too expensive, you can find great ones at funky thrift stores for much less.

A couple of years back I went to Texas (from Australia) and I couldn't believe how much it was like all of the cliches! I fell in love and hope to get back there in the future. Enjoy!!

Gotta have them boots, girl. (If you feel like really splurging, get a pair of Frye boots. They are beyond faboo.)

When going for BBQ in the south, always get pulled pork. The chicken is always gross :)

I'm not sure I trust any BBQ restaurants that serve vegetables (except maybe pinto beans or something). You should make sure and try some brisket. Mmmm....

In the South, yams are called sweet potatoes :) and you MUST try some collard greens with hot pepper sauce.
