– a haircut! This wouldn't be such news if I was a normal person, or had shorter hair, or listened to any advice ever given about healthy hair. But the last time I got a haircut, there was snow on the ground.
Ew.
I got 6 inches cut off and still have an unreal amount of hair (for me), so I decided that next year about this time, I'm going to go Locks of Love and get something awesome like this…
– I made snacks! Proscuitto, basil, and fontina cheese on bruschetta, and some chicken sausage and apples. Crap. It was delicious.
– finished up processing all the tomatoes from the garden. In an effort to find the best (read: easiest) way to make tomato sauce, I got out the Kitchenaid food strainer my ma-in-law gave me. It attaches to my mixer and whirred contentedly while I threw tomato after tomato into it. Easy peasy.
I didn't really get how it worked at first, though. I put a bowl under the spout to catch all the strained business, but hadn't thought about the… unstrained business. Until I had this coming at me…
Gross. There might have been some tomato "extrusion" on the floor. And by "might", I mean, there definitely was.
– got a great piece of advice. "If you keep asking a question, you're asking the wrong question." Example: every night before bed, you ask yourself "Why didn't I workout today?" Like every night. Maybe you should ask, "why didn't I get up earlier?" or "why did I watch 3 hours of tv?" or whatever. Great advice.
– I made spinach-artichoke dip with the help of an anime star, V.
(Have you seen her lately? Under the striped shirt, there's a huge hot pink tutu, leggings, and rainboots. I'll post a picture sometime, but she dresses like a teenager from Tokyo.)
– I also brought back Saltine Cracker Toffee. So guess who bought broccoli today?
It's been a pretty boring week around here, as you can see. Please tell me about your week. Did you vacuum? Watch paint dry? Go bungee-jumping? Buy a monkey?
One year ago: The Pinterest Project- Flapjack Friday Frills. Syrup. Yum.
