Ravelry!

It's official! I'm on Ravelry.

Movies.

I have definitely been enjoying movies including the following people (whether actors, actresses, directors, etc.):

Nicholas Cage.
Steve Corell (I almost put Michael Scott!)
David Lynch.
Brittany Murphy (why do I even like her?!)

IN OTHER NEWS:
1) I have been FELTING and KNITTING away in my cute, comfy basement.
2) I haven't been to my sewing studio in almost a month [I simply haven't had the time because of school.]
3) A new girl is moving into the sewing studio! She actually, ironically enough, used to be my best friend in middle school.
4) My parents hired a guy to re-create the folding roof above the stairwell outside of my bedroom, which leads to the outdoors. IT DOESN'T WORK! THIS MEANS THAT I CAN'T TAKE PICTURES ANYMORE IN THAT SLIGHTLY GROSS STAIRWELL BECAUSE THERE IS NO MORE NATURAL LIGHT!
5) #5 is actually a GOOD thing because thsi will force me to take pictures of new creations once a week in the studio! So I'll be forced to return to the studio.

Vegetarian Month

So my brother is living with us now...
I was in Yoga class the other day, and the instructor told us that OCTOBER is World Vegetarian Month (October 1st is World Veggie DAY.) My brother and I have decided to participate. I'll be photo-doumenting our little veggie journey.
I couldn't do anything without the help of my trusty veggie cookbook, VEGETARIAN BASICS.

So far I've been doing great! I haven't even craved meat. I really have a weak spot for hearty chicken dishes, but I'm doin' good!

Try THIS recipe (this is my version of the Roasted Veggie Sandwich):
SERVES 2-3 HUNGRY PEOPLE!
Preheat your Broiler.
Slice the following:
1 green/red/yellow bell pepper, 1 Medium Onion, A handful or more of Grape Tomatoes in half.
Throw them in a casserole dish and toss these vegetables in olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Put them in the broiler for 8 minutes, making sure they are 4"-5" away from the fire. Stir halfway through cooking time.
While they are cooking, slice an avocado and toast hearty wheat rolls.
Take 1/4 C Mayonnaise and sprinkle in dried basil and garlic powder. Stir.
Spread on each half of the wheat rolls, Pile roasted veggies and fresh avocado on top of the roll.

Knitting and Music Session

My brother's 25th birthday was two days ago, so he had a bunch of friends over for a PIZZA PARTY!!! Christopher, my darling friend/2nd brother who plays in the band "1994," picked up a rotting guitar which we have sitting in our living room, and began to playyyy... I'm always mesmerized by the melodies he comes up with.

FOUND: Knitting Stuff!

SO I went into the security office at school to report my missing yarn and other knitting supplies. It was so funny because they were joking around with each other being like "Ohh, yeah, that crazy yarn person around the school probably stole it.." I was like... "I AM that crazy yarn person.." Hahaha. The next day I asked my teacher if he had found anything, and he had! He had to unlock the laboratory for me.

So I'm working on a 5 page paper, and flashcards for my HUGE HUGE HUGE biology exam on Wednesday. I woke up early to work on my in-text citations and works cited page for bio. Now I'm going to Dandon's! And then I'm filling in for someone at work, even though it's my weekend off. But it's weekend pay, so I'm good. HA!

Alright. BYE!

Missing Knitting Bag

I brought some knitting to school yesterday.
I was knitting before Biology adn then we entered the laboratory,
where I shoved the bag of supplies and yarn (including GORGEOUS handspun by girlwithahook.etsy.com) under the lab desk,
and when I got home, I realized I hadn't retrieved it with my other items upon leaving....
Yeah.. I was hoping to prepare for FIRST FRIDAY TOMORROW (!!!) by knitting a few more hats to add to my collection..
However, that will not be happening because I don't know where the knitting bag is.

The Breast Chef of America

My dad and I call her that.

I really enjoy her recipes, however.

One thing you may not know about me is that I love to cook.
