Just sharing a link

I have always held one truth dear: “Good food is always meant to be shared with good friends.” When I was back home recently, I had the privilege of cooking for my family and my good friend Mel. Mel recently wrote about the meal on her blog, so please go have a read. But ignore her hyperbole, I am merely o.k. in the kitchen!

BTW Mel, I have not forgotten about those pictures I took while you were making those interesting and fantastic miso cookies! They will be posted soon erm… as soon as I find the right memory card…

 

More coming…

I have a ton more travel pictures but they will have to wait until the weekend because I’m recovering from my trip back/working again. Sorry for the delay but I promise to update real soon!

Happy New Year!

Just a quick post to wish you all a Happy New Year! All the best in 2012!

NaNo2011 word count update

Just a quick update to say that I am now up to 13000 words! That’s just over 1/5 of the novel. Woohoo!

World Series Champs!

What an amazing game tonight! While it (very gladly) did not have the nail biting suspense as the last, we won! Go Cardinals World Series 2011 Champions! It’s party time in St Louis!

A new week

And with that the weekend is over. Despite my initial enthusiasm, I didn’t get up to a whole lot: watched a lot of bad tv dramas in bed, ate a lot of pancakes (yum!) and did a bit of shopping. I’ve decided to start running again and I needed a new pair of shoes. Any runner will tell you, good shoes really make a difference! I was originally going to buy a cheap pair from Target, but decided against them (the soles felt a bit flimsy) and got a pair of Nikes instead. There’s a double bonus, I’m actually excited to go for a run to try them out!

What did you do this weekend?

Weekend

I am ready for a great weekend! I’ve been thinking that this is so important, just chilling after a long week. Ahh I’m so psyched! I don’t actually have anything planned but I’m going to enjoy it!
