Dishes

So in cleaning part of the garage my mom gave me the set of 4 dishes that were my grandma's. I now get to take these with me to my first apartment/dorm/kitchen (whatever you want to call it). I think that they are perfect!


Above:They look so pretty


Above:This is more the true color, which is a cream

Long Day

It's been almost a week and the sad thing is I've had the last few days off from work. That's probably actually why I haven't posted anything. I've been helping my mom clean out our bonus room. It's rather messy. I've also been attempting to clean out my room of stuff that I don't need or that I don't use anymore. It's been a busy and stressful last few days but I have found a lot of interesting things while cleaning. I have found my Harry Potter school uniform and wand to match. I've also found money!!

Today has been a long day for a few reasons. First reason I went to the airport with my mom to pick my aunt up from a flight. It was suppose to get in at 10:20, well it didn't get in until 2:10. So I didn't get to bed until about 4am. Second reason I woke up at 8am. I couldn't have woken up that early if I wanted to. Third reason I spent the afternoon cleaning out our garage which was really hot. I am so ready for bed but before I do I have a little video for you. I heard this song on the radio and really enjoyed it. I hope you do too.

Isn't this the greatest?

Cookies

Today was an unexpected day. I got up, not quite dreading the day, to go to work at 8:30. I left my house at 10:30 in order to get there by 11. I got to work and after half an hour I was informed that they didn't need me and that I could go home. This was a major surprise since the earliest I've ever been able to go home was 5pm. So I came home but on my way I stopped by the grocery store and bought funfetti cake mix and cream cheese frosting. Then when I got home I put in 1776 and started baking cookies!!! I made about 3 dozen cookies and they turned out beautifully! I plan on taking most of them to my friends house with me tomorrow. After I finished the cookies I sat on the couch and read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and I am now almost done and plan on finishing it tonight. I hope you all like the picture of my beautiful cookies. Ttfn.

Life

It has been a busy last few weeks with working and trying to have a life. I have finished my re-read of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. It was almost as good the second time but definitely not as suspenseful just because I knew how it was going to end. Yesterday also brought an end to an era. I bought Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows in paperback. I now own all of the books in hardback and paperback. Well I can still count on the movies, even if they haven't been that great. I'm planning on going to the midnight release next week with my friend. We are going to be dressing up, as what we don't know yet. I'm also thinking of making a few other things depending on how things go in the next week. I found a really cool recipe for Edible Dark Marks and Nosebleed Nougats. Maybe I'll make some of those and take them to the premiere with me. Anyways, I'm going to breakfast with my mom and my aunt this morning before I go to work. It should be fun. Well ttfn.
