I am ga-ga for Project Runway. I freely admit this as the first of twelve steps to come. And I want Jeffrey to win. Go Jeffrey!



edit after show:

And...Jeffrey wins! Kick-ass.

In other news, tonight I had my first Salty Dog. It was more sour than salty, however.

cookies cookies

I made cookies yesterday. I made them with the will and cadence of an expert in the culinary arts! I made them with flour, and butter, and lots of sugar. I made them...with love.

After eyeing an unused half-bag of marshmallows left over from our recent camping trip, I decided to put them to good use. Mara mentioned Rice Krispies Treats earlier for some reason, and so it was decided.

To make these things, you need to melt butter and marshmallows, then mix them in with the cereal, and finally spoon the resultant goop into a pan to cool. It was surprisingly easy, but after stuffing my face with them for the rest of the afternoon, I never want to eat them again. Clearly a very easy treat to get sick of very quickly.

Today marks the first day of rain of the season, which is fitting, as it is also the first day of October. I woke up and was greeted by an opaque, moist bathroom window. While I appreciate the beauty of dusky, dark rainy days such as today, I silently grieve the end of summer.
