I am new to this blogging but I am excited about it because I always have alot to say and I think it will be fun even if no one reads it. Right now I think this blog will let me brag about whatever it is I am currently knitting/sewing/reading/doing and the silly circumstances I always seem to find myself in.
I have a had a busy weekend I am still tired. I went to lunch with a friend to teach her some knitting and we had a great time talking about growing up togethor. We have known eachother about ten years and have had our ups and downs but lots of great memories. We love Violent Femmes alot and talked about how loud we would play it in her car, and how each time we went I took whatever guy I was hanging out with at the time. I don't ever talk to or think about any of those guys anymore but I always remember how much fun she and I had dancing our asses off all night long. We talked about sleepovers and first sips of alcohol and first real boyfreinds. It was so good to reminisce and have a laugh over things that really plagued us years ago.
I also somewhat started a new dress. I hope I will finish this one, the new dress I started for last summer is still in pieces under my sewing machine.........this one is far less ambitious so there is hope this dress will turn out lovely. So there was trips to the fabric store to get lots of supplies and then frustration over reading the pattern to myself.
My best freind slept over Friday night to watch movies here and eat Honey Hut Ice Cream.
We made lots of plans for things we want to do this summer, go to Flea Markets and go see some movies and Vast.
I am knitting a nice new purse for myself, and also working on an old vintage leather I found for twenty five cents last summer. Both are coming along pretty well but I really hoped to have the vintage purse done last summer honestly. And I still have the koi purse to sew togethor, Ahhh the damn Koi purse that seemed like such a great project for the summer, well the embroidery part came out great if I may say so, great for someone that can't master french knots or draw that well, but the fish looks like a fish and the cherry blossoms around it are very nice. I still have to add some beads and sew it up into a cute little clutch. I wish I could get my friends into sewing and knitting its hard when you are the only one and they dont want to learn but want you to whip up purses and scarfs all the time. I dont mind at all but it would be more fun if I had someone to work on things with. I joined a craft swap this week so maybe I will correspond with people that can teach me new things. Actually I found this blog on a link there so its already been somewhat helpful I guess.
The cooking is also coming along ok so far. I am only doing like one thing a week but I made a really good teryaki chicken last week it. I will try making something else this week. Perhaps seafood. I made crab legs once and that was super easy for me so maybe something a little more ambitious this time. I used to cook everyday but I never really knew how, my cooking was ok and very humble, lots of slow cooker recipes and simple stir fry but I would like to do alot more complex things. I like to eat so I might as well put more effort into it. I like to eat cake and pyrogys too much.
I have gained some weight but I think I am ok with it. I tell myself I am ok with it atleast. Fat and happy for now. My treadmill is collecting dust and I don't feel guilty when I walk by it. But maybe tommorrow after I clean up and do some garden work I will make the effort with it. Hopefully tommorrow at this time I will be blogging away about how much I accomplishedm but we'll see about that.
