where ya been?
people keep asking what i’ve been up to while not blogging and hanging out. hmm…
finally got around to working on a wedding cross stitch for skfl and me.
got into caramelizing leeks and eating them right out of the frying pan.
spent a decent amount of time in the car listening to audiobooks.
i was making yogurt like crazy and putting on a few pounds (thanks whole milk).
and then there was the obsessive punching out and sorting of paint chip samples for a project phase.
most of my time was spent pressing on mae’s head because it feels so good (and she likes it).
Oh! Paint samples! I wondered what all those little colored dots you had in your apartment were from…
I’m also of the opinion that one should always spend copious amounts of time petting dogs.
oh mae! man do I miss your dog renee. i miss you and skfl too. I love the cross-stitch. Been wanting to get back into it and embroiderly myself. And sewing!
I want to visit at some point in the near future. I discovered the “Double Happiness” bus to Albany. It’s cheap! yay!
hugs guys…m
jess, yes! and that “wreath” on the door is made from extra wedding invitations. i probably need to start a craft blog.
malvina, we wicked miss you! i hope you love your new digs. one day we will visit. does the double happiness go both ways? hee hee.
Mmm homemade yogurt!
Are caramelized leeks as good as caramelized onions?
they sure are! give ‘em a try sometime. just be sure to give them a thorough rinse!
I have a yogurt maker but haven’t been able to produce something similar to fage, which I LOVE. Yours looks nice and thick, perhaps a blog post detailing your technique is in the near future? Or you can just start teaching yogurt lessons for which we will happily sign up.
charley, i will totally blog about the yogurt making process…someday. i think straining your yogurt is the key to coming close to the fage.
Renee, I thought you dropped off the planet. Love finding out what you’ve been up to.
