Ack!

How is it possible that it has been nearly a week since my last post. That is horrible! Wait- why wasn't anyone yelling at me. Or at the very least a little concerned about my absence... hmm maybe because I'm one of the few to actually read this thing, and yelling at one's self isn't generally very effective.

Anyway, you haven't missed too much. I'm getting back into the swing of things at work, so that is taking a bit of effort. Friday I did get something cool in the mail:

It wasn't actually a surprise, but I am still entranced by Amazon's 2-day shipping. As well as the fact that they have the best garlic press collection I've ever seen (this one has two inserts with different size holes!). So now I have a whole bunch of new recipes to play with!

Otherwise my weekend consisted of the outdoor photo shoot I set up for my pottery. I used to take pictures inside my apartment, but with leaves on the trees around my house, it really resembles a dark cave inside. Not ideal for photography.

So imagine this (sorry I forgot to take a picture): me, my camera, pottery, the table I usually use to hold my portable grill, 3 plastic bins of crafts (stacked, to make a higher level on the table), and one roll of white paper for the background being held in place by a Coleman fuel tank and pink lab tap set up in the front lawn of my apartment house at 10 a.m. Sunday morning. I'm sure I was entertaining to my neighbors.

The only other notable thing I did was finally watch the netflix DVD that has been sitting around my apartment for the last 2 months (I'm really bad about watching them). So yes I just paid $20 to watch one DVD. At least it was good. So below is the copy of Bread & Tulips that can finally go onto its next destination.
