So... It's cold. It's not supposed to be this cold in the middle of summer. 65 degrees? Come on!!! I know there are usually a few days in July that are kind of rainy and whatnot, but I don't remember them as being this cold. Now, it may just seem a little bit colder to me due to the fact that I have sunburns covering both of my thighs and the increased heat there makes my body think that the rest of it should be warmer. Who knows...
Anywho, no summer job this summer. No one is hiring. (Mom refuses to see this and asks whenever we go somewhere if I applied there yet.) Not that I'm complaining; I enjoy having the summer off. I've been able to.... sleep in, catch up on my reading, do some crafts (I'm taking a break from one right now to write this), and just sit around doing nothing. :) I haven't been able to do that since the summer before 8th grade year (I think, it may have been before that).
I made some really good Rosemary Bread last week that was gone the next day. My rosemary plant is in need of a trim so I need to either make some more stuff with it or go online and see how to dry herbs. I'll probably do another loaf of bread and either rolls or bread sticks. I'm thinking next week may be dedicated to baking/cooking. In addition to making some things that use rosemary, I also want to make a cheesecake that I found a recipe for and then just some other random recipes that I found online. Most of them I found on www.twofatals.com (Two Fat Als not Two Fatals :) ) and www.smittenkitchen.com. Now I have to figure out what I do and do not have ingredient-wise for my baking (I have a feeling that there will be at least one trip to the grocery store). My main problem will be deciding what to make as there are a lot of recipes to sort through. IDEA!!! I might make one bread product a week - that way we don't have multiple loaves of bread waiting to be eaten (not that they'll last all that long if they're good).
GAH!!!!!!!! I just went to publish this (I had typed quite a bit more than this) and there was an error causing me to lose about half of what I had typed. I am now going to attempt to retype what I had before I tried to post.
Anywho, this is a random thought that in no way affects you, but is really bugging me. Every time I drive past Shaw Meat Market and can stop in, they are closed. However, almost every time I drive past and can't stop, they are open. I WANT MY BOLOGNA!!!!! I suppose I could try the stuff in the Safeway deli, but it wouldn't be the same and definitely wouldn't be as good.
I honestly tried to remember everything that I had typed before trying to post last time, but know that I forgot some of it. It doesn't look like I missed much, but about half of the paragraph before the one about the post not posting had been erased and I didn't want to seperate them just to follow my line of thought.
Hopefully it warms up soon so I can go outside in shorts and a t-shirt to read.
