I'm drowning! Help! Midterms have taken over my life! HOWEVER, I am fully dedicated to this blog, in which I have literally tens of readers to appease. I couldn't let you five down!

Although I have been buried under piles and piles (and piles!) of papers covered in linguistic mumbo jumbo, I have been crafting on the side. I'm making bottlecap magnets again this year, and going to be selling them at Christmas craft fair this winter at a friend's table. So, my room has sort of become a magnet production sweatshop/study station/I've-been-studying-too-long-I'm-going-stir-crazy-dance-hall.

Annnnywaaay. My friend Esther hasn't been going midterm crazy and has channeled this energy into making some adorable candles! She says there super easy and is going to give them away for Christmas in threes.

Anyways! Will return with my own crafts soon!

White Walls Really Skeeve Me Out

Innovative Decorating

It's a cookie sheet. I didn't want to take over the fridge.

Welcome September

September.

New school.

New city.

New crafting outlook.

I know that Jen almost primarily posts cooking posts nowadays.... and... I think I'm going to start adding a few into the mix too... sigh. I just moved guys! I need to start making my own food! It's something I do now! Maybe we'll rename ourselves to "Can't Stop, COOK till we drop"? Not likely.

Mainly because I am a menace in the kitchen. And not in a good way.

But I've been trying.

For example,

I made my own granola.

It looks good, but it tastes better.

And for lunch,

Cream cheese, rye crackers and tomatoes. Not really cooking, but pretty to look at and magically delicious.

Of course, moving to an island away from all your family and friends isn't just cooking. I also decorated my room! Pictures to follow!

Back to blogging!

And I'm baaaaaccckkk

I'm back!

14 countries, three months, time of my life.

Will craft soon!

MY FIRST VEGAN BURGER

Earlier this week I made my first vegan bean burger. Consisting of lentils, black beans, bread crumbs and some spices. . . . very yummy.

I got the recipe online hmm can't remember where but it's pretty easy to make.
two posts in one day? wow as appose to the ONE last month eh?

Ok so it has been a while since there has been some kinda postage. I'd like to say I've been SUPER busy but that would be lying . Julz off living and loving the european backpackers life. Extremely jealous but here in sometimes rainy sometimes sunny Vancouver.

anywho my mom visited and I made a BIG pizza and of course it was goood.

also took a crack at making my own granola instead of buying store bought. cause saving money is cool!

Oh look crafts! This is a mothers day card I made for my . . . well mother.

It was also my sister's birthday at the beginning of the month (may 5th) and she's going into audio engineering which is sooo awesome and I am SOO proud of her for getting into a school in montreal and that is the cassette tape reference in a sense.

ON a side note. Remember that 2010 book I made? well I've come to terms with the fact that it will be IMPOSSIBLE to fulfill those goals this year sooo I am not giving myself a time limit for that. We'll see
