The blog title was based on my feelings of inadequacy as I encountered others' expressions that their life was more chaotic, busy and difficult than my own. As time passes, I am reminded of the many areas in my life that I experience the role of victor, many areas where I am blessed beyond all measure. So while I still feel that I am a fierce contender in the life-is-chaotic-and-I-don't-know-how-much-longer-I-can-run-this-fast competition, I am reminded of the many areas of life where I WIN!

What do you use that for?
I just returned from the grocery store. I had to pick up a few last minute things for Annika's 14th birthday party this afternoon. (Have I ever mentioned that kids' birthday parties are not my thing??? different day, different entry). Anywho. I was at the store picking up the last minute goodies which I believe bring me VERY close to a grand total of $1k for this darn birthday (no just kidding). I remembered that I needed some Cumin so I headed to the spice aisle. First off, I have a very large spice cupboard. I do not believe in only using salt and pepper and maybe some generic 'seasoning'. I enjoy using a variety of spices in a variety of ways. That being said I HATE to pay for them. I love it when something I need can be found on the 'Hispanic Foods' aisle..pequeno dinero. Today I found something new in my hunt for Cumin. I found a bottle, correction, a rather large bottle of something marked 'Soul Seasoning'. I almost bought it. I am still wondering what EXACTLY is 'soul seasoning'? Then again, I also still wonder what really is 'oriental flavor'??

I googled it. Looks like a pretty generic blend meant to give food that southern soul taste.....whatever that is. What did I find in the spice section recently? Bacon salt! Yup. Since everything is better with bacon I bought it. Used it on some steaks I grilled. It was pretty delish. And without the added fat of actual bacon. :)
