The Guadalajara Dog
Last summer I took Laura Martin to Pinks for a chili cheese dog. While waiting in line we reviewed the extensive menu and specifically noticed the Guadalajara Dog and commented that I seriously doubt that they put Sour Cream on their hot dogs in Guadalajara. I checked with Leo and Alexander (two of our associates in Guadalajara) and they confirmed that Sour Cream, tomatoes, onions and relish are found on hotdogs in Guadalajara.Tonight I decided to make two different style hot dogs, the first was a guacamole dog and the second was the Guadalajara dog. The Guacamole dog was just ok, I'd never make it again but I definitely recommend you try the Guadalajara dog, it was absolutely fantastic.

Sonny Simon Sauer
Rachel and Kevin have been keeping the baby's name a secret (I think because they can) a couple of months ago I dreamed that they had named the baby Simon. While Simon is a fine name I remember thinking in the dream, "Everybody has been waiting for 9 months and the best you could come up with was Simon?" I haven't given it further thought until today when I was speaking with Laura and the following conversation ensued:
Kim: Well the baby is sunny side up
Laura: Aw man
Kim: I hate it called sunny side up, reminds me of an egg. The medical community needs to come up with another description or can they just say not face down.
Laura: Maybe they'll name the baby Sonny
Kim: Sonny Simon Sauer
Kim: Well the baby is sunny side up
Laura: Aw man
Kim: I hate it called sunny side up, reminds me of an egg. The medical community needs to come up with another description or can they just say not face down.
Laura: Maybe they'll name the baby Sonny
Kim: Sonny Simon Sauer

Sandbox, Toys, and Shoes
We made an impromptu stop at the Krueger house today and the kids were immediately in the back yard playing. The sandbox had it's cover on and the three of them were playing on the swing set. About ten minutes later Becca and I went outside and found the following. Can't wait for the beach!!!!

For Three and a Half Years......
My blog looked like this:
Accent colors changed from time to time but overall the look and feel stayed the same since 2006. Today, it was updated and so here I pay tribute to the first 3 and 1/2 years of the Kim1Champ blog.
P.S. Not sure I like the new format, we'll see if it sticks.

New Way of Making Tacos
A couple of weeks ago I decided instead of layering the toppings on my tacos I would combine it all in a bowl and then scoop into the shell. FANTASTIC! I will likely never make the traditional way again. Ingredients included, Cheddar/Jack blend, shredded beef, tomatoes, sour cream, guacamole,onions and lettuce with a touch of oil and cider vinegar.

How To Get Covered Parking In Phoenix
Summertime in AZ means covered parking is extremely important. There is a parking structure behind the data center that historically has been known to be hard to obtain acesss for (like you have to BE someone to get parking) but the truth is all you need to do is ask for access and it is granted. Yesterday, I noticed that there may be an additional requirement: Personalized License Plate

Message To Hermosa Vista: It's June, In Mesa AZ
I must bring you the latest email from the Hermosa Vista distribution list. It was received today at 5:40 PM at which time it was 106 degrees in Mesa (and there was an excessive heat warning in effect). Here's the email (I have only removed the persons name and email address):
I will have wool blankets at my home next Wednesday. I will have the one we are ordering and the Others for comparison. Please feel free to stop by my home at (Address). To see them if you are interested. I work. I would not be available until evening. I will wait and let you know when to give me money.

What An FSO Associate Dreams About.....
This morning I recevied the following email from an FSO lead (and I seriously laughed) The name has been changed to protect his identity:
From: Jack Bauer
To: Kim Thomas
Subject: Weird Stuff
So… last night you were in my dream…
You picked me up in an SUV and we went to a concert in an outdoor stadium (I don't who it was but it was big, like the Rolling Stones or Aerosmith). We talked all along the way, but I don't what about.
Someone was in our seats but they moved as soon as we arrived. After we took our seats you handed me some money and asked me to get a 3-foot submarine sandwich - you asked for it by name, but I don't remember what it was called.
I had to go to the opposite side of the stadium to get it and there was a long line (it went out the stadium). I managed to get to the front (by not standing in line!) and placed the order, but the making of the sandwich was taking a long time. You showed up after awhile and gave the Chinese man making the sandwich an extra $5 dollar bill to hurry up - which he did and he gave me the sandwich.
Then my alarm clock went off…
Have a great day!
