Cake Wars

I was excited to try making this cake and in fact did so. The problem was when I was cooling it on the counter and my dog Rusty decided to help himself to a quarter of the cake. But don't you worry, I just cut off the offending sides and will still be presenting it at the family dinner I'm hosting tonight. I'm not going to let him best me!




The naughty boy.

Scarf Love

I am posting a link to a beautiful scarf giveaway. Check it out in the next three days to get in on the action!

Bit by Bit

Day 41

Day 40

I'm going to admit that I'm a sci-fi/fantasy book reader. I truly enjoy travelling to different lands where there is magic afoot. I am reading a series right now that is quite enjoyable The Eldarn Sequence I am on the last of the series of three. I purchased the first one a couple of years ago and then last month I noticed the other two side by side in the used books portion of our local bookstore, score!!!

Day 39
I love this!

Dinner and a Movie

Tonight I'm going out with a good friend I haven't seen in a while. I don't know where we are going to eat and I don't know what we are going to see. It's an adventure! Yay!....I don't get out enough obviously!
Isn't there something fun in making plans that have the promise of the unknown. I'm the type of person who doesn't have to be rigidly scheduled to feel ok with things. I have friends and family that are and I can play by their rules but I do enjoy whims. Cheers to that!

Day 38

Chin Up!

So my crocheting has gone by the way side. I plan on rectifying that when I'm done this post. I am a week behind now and feel like a very naughty student. I am going to have to go apple picking to make it up to teacher.

Day 37
Who knew!

Holy Crap Was I Ill.

I had the worst illness this weekend. I couldn't move except to throw up the water I was consuming. I really hate it when my body betrays me like that. Now I'm all weak and shaky; but thankfully on the mend.  I felt so sorry for my dogs who are completely bored not getting their nightly walks. They were pretty good about it though so hopefully I can make it up to them tonight.

A Month of Quotes

I think I've been doing pretty good with posting my daily quote. I admit that there were some days that I had to make up. Sue me. haha!
I definitely feel that I'm getting into a blogging routine though and that's what's important.
My crochet is coming along slowly as I am behind in watching the tutorials having gone away for Thanksgiving weekend. I will be posting my progress tomorrow as I also have to put up a pic on flicker.
Take care,
Amanda

Day 31



Day 30
Miss it already!



Day 29
I get this flu a couple times a year.

Day 28
I'm glad I'm not alone.

Turkey Time!

Well I'm off to the cottage for a couple of days to stuff my face full of all of natures bounty. I'm a big fan of stuffing (dressing as some might call it). It will be a whirlwind of eating adventures as I cover much area filling my gullet. Le sigh.

Day 27

There need not be words for this.

Where's the Laundry Fairy?

Why don't we have a laundry fairy? Is it really too much to ask for that a winged creature come forth in the night and clean, dry, fold and stack all of our used clothing items? And would it be pushing it even further to suggest that this magical event happen not annually but weekly? I personally would be OK with this arrangement.

Teenagers are wonderful.

Fed up

Have you ever had one of those break ups where the guy just doesn't seem to get that it's over? I'm currently smack in the middle of one of those situations. It really sucks, thank god for lorazepam.
