dishes

For some reason, I have a love of dishes. I really want these 12 Days of Christmas plates. Anyone want to buy them for me? You can purchase them here.

domestication

This weekend I made whole wheat bread, "molaskas" and crocheted an afghan for my niece, Lucky (more on this to come). That's a lot of homemaking for one weekend! I don't know which is worse that I spent my entire weekend being domestic, or that I enjoyed it so much.

love at first sight

Isn't she pretty?

It's the end of the world

So, my buddy at work is always talking about EOTW (End of the World). It's almost an obsession for him. He has food, blankets, lighters and all sorts of accessories stored and available when EOTW hits. Today, he gave me the coolest thing. Check this out. Now, I too, will be able to signal plans during EOTW. If anybody is looking for me, I'm on the roof practicing my plane signaling skills.

here's the proof

Ever heard of wakesurfing? I love when I get "paid" to do stuff like this! This morning for our team building activity, we spent a few hours on the lake. I got some good runs in on the wakeboard, and then got to try wakesurfing. I can't wait to get out again!

perfect cookies

As you may recall, one of my life long goals was to make perfect cookies. Well, as was previously stated, I have. Today this was reaffirmed. Today at work there was a chocolate chip cookie bake-off. This was not open to the general public, but rather to a select few employees with a reputation for making delicious cookies. Of course, I was invited to participate. And, I was the winner! I can now state that I make "award winning" cookies (and did so as I offered them to my co-workers). I was even accused of using a Mrs. Fields cookie recipe. This is not the case. The recipe is my own (slightly modified from other recipes). The real question is, should I post the recipe? Let me know what you think and why.
