This Weekend

One of my favorite thrifted milk glass mugs and the book I bought at Saturday night's reading.

This picture sums up my entire weekend.  I was doubly, delightfully unproductive because our program hosted a visiting poet and Selena and Ben were came to visit as well.  There was simply too much fun to be had–too much king cake to eat, to much wine to drink, too many episodes of Community to watch, etc.  So instead of tackling all the things I’ve neglected all weekend, today I am sipping ginger and honey tea (a great remedy for when you’ve had too much of just about anything) and reading Missing You, Metropolis by the very talented (and incredibly  fun!) Gary Jackson.  At some point I’ll have to actually get some work done, but I’m not going to think about that right now.

A Little Splurge

Well, when I say splurged, what I really mean is that I had two gift cards (one that had been hanging around since last Christmas and another that I won recently as part of an essay competition at my school) just begging to be spent. I have a moderately sized collection of craft and cookbooks, many of which I have never used, so I don’t really know why I’m buying more other than to maybe motivate me to Get Shit Done. Frankly, it doesn’t get much better than Martha Stewart and Moosewood Restaurant as far as I’m concerned. Needless to say, I’m pleased as punch and can’t wait to get to work on the recipes and projects in these two books.
