Oh, I'm so glad you asked. Yes, I've been working very hard on my LIST.
Wanna see my latest progress?
#23 - make ricotta cheese
The recipe was dead easy. 3 ingredients. Even I can handle that. This spreadable deliciousness was a huge hit at the dinner party I attended over the weekend. I think I may have found my new go-to. |
#11 - retry 10 foods I always thought I hated: Cheerios
Not good. Not bad. Kind of bland. But at least they didn't taste like puke--which was my fear. Win!
#30 - wear false eye lashes
creepy, no? |
#37 - Take a long walk in the rain without an umbrella
This one took a while, because it's been unseasonably (ha-ha) warm and dry the past few weeks. But then suddenly, the heavens opened and it poured like crazy all weekend. Well. I grabbed my pink wellies and pink checked rain coat and hit the running trail that I abuse myself on every day. With camera phone in hand, I took a couple shots of things I'd never noticed during my runs. And I must say, it's quite beautiful. Thanks to the rain, things were green and blooming and just stunning.
Self-port of me enjoying the down pour. Too bad I didn't notice until I was on my way back to the car that my "Big Ass Fans" cap was gone. Sad. |
Er...what the devil? I think I would pee my pants if I'd seen one of these nasties. |
This kind of wildlife I can handle. |
The super sexy soaking-wet "After" shot. My camera lens and car windows were all nice and foggy. |
Yea!!!!!!!!!!! Check 'em off girl!! Ricotta looks divine!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the support, Ginger! It helps. Beleeeeeive me! :)
DeleteOh and the cheese was way super easy! I think I'll be making more this weekend.
Very brave of you to try Cheerios. Hmm. Guess that means I should try yellow squash.
ReplyDeleteWell, it wasn't as gross as I thought it would be. At least I'm not afraid of them anymore. :)
DeleteNUTRIAAAAAA!!! I learned all about these oversized rats while on a swamp tour in New Orleans. Seriously nasty vermin.
ReplyDeleteI think I saw one in my hedges last fall after a big rain. At first I thought it was an R.O.U.S. (rodent of unusual size) from Princess Bride. It looked about that big. PUKE!
Deleteyou need a rain bonnet, girl
