Grad School Update: My interview went well. I've turned all my stuff in. I'm now waiting for a meeting to happen on the 20th where a council discusses grad applications. Then, I should *hopefully* receive a letter in the mail within a week after that. I feel confident in what I submitted, and I'll have to give updates on other things I learned in the interview another day.
Weekend Update:
I really enjoyed my last Sweet Tea recipe. I included some English Breakfast Tea in with the regular Lipton. That, and 2 cups of sugar (hangs head in shame at my sugar addiction), make for an excellent tea brew! I made more tonight.
I tried a new recipe Saturday! Can you guess what they are?
Chocolate Chip pancakes! MMMMmmmmmm. Very delicious, and right off of the Bisquick box. I followed their "supreme" ingredients and added chocolate chips of course. I also made healthier pancakes from Whole Wheat Aunt Jemima mix. I make up a bunch, and then freeze them for later. Learned it from my Mama.It pays to have a handy husband. We had a falling apart shelf/basket/ironing board organizer thing in the bathroom that has since been replaced by a bookshelf. Josh took a few of the parts, and the ironing board section, and attached it to a wall in the spare bedroom. Nifty isn't it? And it took him less than half an hour.
An Ikea find. This metal contraption helps to store our hose for the shop vac. Not pictured below, the kitty litter containers which often get vacuumed around.
We moved a new bookshelf into the spare room, and although still a little messy, you can see our DVDS have been moved to it, and the CD/DVD organizer now just holds CDS. The CDS are sitting on top of a desk if you're wondering. Currently we own more stuff than we have room for. Something I'm trying to rectify by purging things. SLOWWWWWW process.
Just for fun. Yes, I own all 10 seasons of Friends, and I've probably watched them all the way through about 3 times (at least).
I mentioned purging stuff. I've been sorting through totes of souvenirs, books, knick knacks, papers, etc. I'll get there one day. Here's one of 4 rabbit chopstick rests I got when I visited Kimmie in Japan. SO CUTE! Definitely a keeper!
Well, that's about it for now. It's about five until 11:00, and I need to get fast asleep! Hope everyone has a good Monday. It's fast approaching.
