knitting content to bore you with
I've been having a super fun time doing lots of knitting latley. Actually, I'm a little bit proud of myself as I achieved one of my goals for the year (sort of, I really cheated, a lot) which was to try and publish a knitting pattern. I totally cheated since I subverted the whole "submit it somewhere" process and self-published it on a web ( Read more... ) -
crafty + pictures
I've got pictures! This also makes me realize that much more how abysmal my camera is at taking pictures in poor indoor lighting. Rrrr. Click on the cut for pictures of crafty goodness, or not, but I did get a lot of craft room cleaning done too... it really needed it.

Well... my trainer says if I am going to build muscle I need to eat more protein. I have a hard time with that sometimes, so this bento is my first attempt at a dish using egg whites, which ( Read more... ) -

My Third Grade Lunch: The Bento Version
Hi guys! I know all of you want to see more of what I'm eating for lunch. Here is Tuesday's!
I thought that I would have a lot of fun making a super cute bento version of the kinds of lunches my mom always made me when I was little (I was right, it was way fun). Let me say that this is so so much cuter than having a brown paper sack full of half ( Read more... ) -

Oww!
This is shaping up to be quite a day. One of those "I am a glutton for punishment" days.
7:00 am - workout with trainer (FYI... on a normal day my alarm goes off at 8:15 am)
8:15 am - return home, shower, make lunch
9:30 am - dentist appt. Got my retainer tightened (ow!) and she showed me how to tighten it myself, in case I happen to stop being in ( Read more... )
