Many Adventures


I have realized that I have neglected this blog for quite some time, and the last time I posted anything, it was not really all that interesting. So I thought, "I have a lot of photographs on my phone, and I am sure that people would love to see them." So here I go

First off, I found myself feeling sick for the second time in the past six months! It was horrible, I had to take time off work and slept until 1:30 in the afternoon. I decided that I was going to show the flu who was boss and not allow it to make me have an unproductive day. What resulted was some homemade udon soup. It ended up tasting really good and didn't look as bad as I thought that it would.

A couple days later I found myself feeling a lot better and joined my friends in the celebration of Megan's final class for her masters degree. We went decided to go to this super nice piano bar in Claremont called Piano Piano. Since there were five of us, we all split this huge drink served in a fishbowl. The straws were pretty fun.

I have been working on this dress forever and have found myself starting to get rather frustrated with the way that it is turning out. It is going to be backless and gathered in the front, but the zipper is not working the way in which I want it to. And it just keeps getting shorter and shorter. But this is it, on the dress form, just kind of hanging there...

So after all of that, I decided that I deserved a nice night of relaxation, with a cool glass of lemonade and rum, and that is exactly how I plan on spending the rest of this lovely evening

SKCB

I have been trying to think of a theme for this blog for quite some time. For me, it doesn't really make sense to have a place where I just write down spontaneous blurbs that lack a central connection. So here it is. I am going to make this about the projects in my life. That means that I am going to focus on sewing and knitting and cooking and baking and adventures that take place in my quest to complete these tasks.
