ITS FALL!!!


I LOVE FALL and at exactly 5:18 yesterday afternoon it became official. In celebration of this fantastic occasion Sophie and I had a party, well not a real party because we have nobody to hang out with other than each other. We started watching the fist season of The OC, we had fresh margs (non alcoholic of course) and chili fires because on the show they always have fresh margs and chili fries. It maybe was not the most fallish party but we had fun!

A few days ago Tacy and I bought a lot of different apples to test so we could decide which apple was our favorite. Mine was Honeycrisp, usually Granny Smith would win but the one we had was old so it lost to Honeycrisp. It was a fun fall activity, because apples are fallish...right...?

Anyway...

On occasion when my mom says she is going to cook something for something I usually know that I will end up helping her or doing it for her. I'm not complaining because I went to school to cook so I enjoy it. Well my mom need to make Apple Crisp for about 50 people. At school we cooked the food for the whole school so I was use to large quantity baking, so naturally I was a good pick for this project. So I got up around 8: 15 ish to start helping her, she had a meeting so she left and I started peeling. Luckily we borrowed a peeler from Ruth that peels and slices the apples so it saved a lot of time. We finally finished around 12:30. We ended up making 3 9x13 pans and two giant turkey roster pans. It looked good as far as I could tell so lets hope it tastes good!

Last but not least...

This last picture is a picture Tacy drew for me a couple days ago. We were discussing how I have this strange obsession with Roosters so we were looking around and I discovered I have a ton of fish treasures as well as a ton of rooster treasures......So she created this lovely creature for me.. Its a roosterfish. Also the fish treasures are all rainbow colored...

Saturday Fun!

Well... Kim and Kaycee are gone..They have been for about a little less than a month...I miss them TONS!!!

But Tacy and I have been having fun so its not to terrible. Today we went to Burlington to Weird Harolds, we ended up discovering that you could paint your own pottery there, so we each picked out an item and we painted it, then they take it and put it in there kiln and glaze it so it turns out like a cute piece of pottery. They will be finished in about a week so we will see the finished project next weekend hopefully.

After that, we came home and Sophie and I watched Twilight. Soph has had this craving to watch Twilight for the longest time so we decided to watch it together because the first time I saw it I was not a huge fan. She was convinced that if I watch it a second time I would like it better..alas..she was true.

That is really all that has happened since my last post, sorry its not much.

P.S How do you like my new background?
