Since it's been so snowy and dreary, I've been spending lots of time in my house. I'm not the type of person to get "cabin fever" or anything, so I really don't mind being stuck at home. Of course, I can't wait for spring, but this isn't too bad. I've been keeping busy with a lot of things--blogging, working on the shop, cleaning/organizing, watching so much on Netflix Instant, and relaxing. I had a lot of relaxing to catch up on, for sure.
I "baked" the other day, too! I use quotation marks because I don't consider what I did to be actual baking. I mixed powder with one egg and water, then cookies were born. It was weird, but so easy and delicious. I used my mom's old mushroom-pattern(?) Pyrex and a wiener dog cookie cutter. (If you didn't read my guest post at Yonder, I have a great love for dachshunds.)
Then I had a few of my closest high school friends for food, drinks, and good times. I ordered a bunch of pizza and appetizers from my favorite pizzeria, and everyone brought different things--cookies, beer, white wine, a veggie platter, more beer. I busted out our 6th, 7th, 8th, and 12th grade yearbooks and we laughed and reminisced for a few hours. It was really fun to catch up with the old standards who I don't get to see very often these days.
