Week 6 & 7 - This cold weather is bumming me out.


I've done a minimum amount of new stuff in the past two weeks. During week 6 I barely did anything at all. Our pipes were frozen so that left cooking out. The outside was frozen so not much was going on out there either. Here is the little I did.


Thursday, 2/8/07, My kitchen: Cranberry Oatmeal cookie bars

I made these tasty cookies. I forgot the baking soda so they didn't rise but that didn't stop Troy and I from eating them all before the weekend was over. Again, another recipe from the same book.

Here is a photo from the book. We ate them all before I could take a real picture.

Saturday, 2/10/07, Herwigs, State College: yummy food

We went to Herwigs on Saturday. It was hella cold out and snowy and no one wanted to cook. The staff is super friendly and funny and the lunch was great. The order board is in Austrian/German and there isn't a huge selection but whatever I got was yummy. It was seriously the best potato salad I ever had. I don't want to say that it was better than Shnitzle's (RIP) but it think it was.



Sunday, 2/11/07, My living room: Embroidery

I know how to knit, some craft stuff and I'm ok at the sewing machine stuff but there are some other domestic things that I would like to try. One being the art of the crochet. Another being embroidery, which I did this past weekend.

Here is what I did. It was from a kit that Troy bought from me after harping that I don't get enough free presents. It's cute and a little punk rock. I don't think that it came out too bad for my first try. I'm on the hunt for something else to embroider. Do you have any ideas?

So that was that. And this post is really late. I'm confident that I'm going to finish this resolution. There is no way that i can stop now that i'm 7.4% done.
