March Madness

As many of you know, I am a HUGE fan of college basketball.  March is one of my most favorite months of the year...I've followed college basketball since I was in high school and have filled out brackets since I was in college.  I'm a die-hard fan of the sport, and I love my K-states even more.  So this year, when Kansas was given the overall number 1 spot and then Kentucky also received a number 1 spot, I was ecstatic! But then KU lost last weekend, and today, UK lost.  Devastation.  My bracket is a complete bust (first time in 3 years--I've picked the winning team for the past 2 years), but I'll continue watching since it's the most awesome sport and tournament in the world!

Yesterday, I headed to Chinatown with a couple of friends.  I'd only been once previously but wasn't too impressed since it's only about a block long.  But I've been craving some chow mein for the past week since Ally had some for lunch the other day.  I've never been a huge fan of chinese food, and I very rarely eat it, but there's something about not eating chinese food for a long while that makes me crave it.  So I went grocery shopping for some soy sauce, sugar, and Hokkian noodles yesterday, and here's what I made (vegetarian chow mein since I gave up meat for Lent). 

Not too bad, huh?  It tastes just like Chinese take-out, so I'm happy with the way it turned out!  Now I have enough chow mein for the rest of the week. Whoo!

Hope you all have a great, awesome rest of the weekend!
