I knew that staying in Houston over the summer might be hard.  There’s a few factors to consider.  It’s freaking hot.  It’s freaking hot.  It’s freaking hot.  We spent all our money in Charleston.

So when you think about those factors, you end up with the current situation, which is two-fold…

HOME ENTERTAINMENT!

Lots of soccer (I mean, I watched North Korea play Brazil, ok?), excessive use of our DVR to record Seinfeld and Anthony Bourdain, and book-reading.

INGENIOUS CULINARY PREPARATIONS OF THE CHEAPER VARIETY!

We’ve been on a roll lately, as we thrift it up but keep it delicious…For instance, did you know that if you cook raw black beans in water with a jar of 99-cent Chipotle Salsa, it will be delectable?  Or that cooking veggies in olive oil and then splashing them with garlic and lemon juice is the answer to all of life’s problems?  Or that if you cover banana bread with a chocolate espresso sauce, it will suddenly be gourmet?
