I really miss all the people from Mexico.

It sucks not having a community like that here.

A lot.

Once

I watched "Once" this evening.



I'll have to watch it again before I pronounce it a favourite of mine. It made me play music afterwards, which is the sign of a good movie. If I leave it wanting to write, draw, dance, or create something, it is a good show.

It made me want to move to the UK.

It also made me want to be with someone who loves making music. I feel slightly stranded here in Vanderhoof sometimes, stranded from people around me who want to make music just for the heck of it. I miss that. A lot. I wish I could write music better than I can, but I don't even exercise what I have well, so I should just shut up and practice.

If anyone wants to make music with me, let me know...

Piesssssss

I am a freakin' pie goddess. I just made a pastry shell and pie filling and baked it and it looked beautiful. To be perfectly honest, I don't know how it tastes, because I gave it away to the lady who's pie plate it was in, but it looked pretty fantastic.

PIES TO TRY MAKING:
Pumpkin
Lemon Meringue
Other ones I can't think of now?

Also, I am planning my Greyhound Roadtrip - WOO! I'm so excited to see all the different people!

Other than that - my life is pretty boring. I made a cute new beret hat that I wear all the time lately. It's brown and tres cute. Tee hee.

Loves.

I typed hate a few times instead of hats... oops. :D

MORE HATS!!!!



My attempt at the "beanie with a beak". Still a prototype, because the beak works on some people's heads, but not others... :S


Despite the fact that it's pink, I STILL love this hat! It's the one that I wear the most, (even though it's up for sale, SHH), and I just love everything about it. My first adult sized earflap hat.



New design I tried - it's for my friend Elizabeth. I've got a really hott one in black and dark green that is great.


WIP: It was for my sister, but even though I used the same pattern as always, it turned out child sized. What the crap.


Another adaptation on the boy beanie. I like the colours - looks better in real life.


Dis ones for my nephee-poo. I'm so jealous - my parents get to go visit soon, and I don't. So I crocheted him a hat. :D


MY CAMERA CASE! I bought a new camera, and I didn't want to pay another $20 bucks for case, so I just made up a pattern!

There it is all shut up...
And the button's basically the best part....

THIS IS THE BOOK! SO GOOD. Must have to learn to crochet.



This is the bag I carry all my wool in - it's my IKEA bag that Cynthia and Isaac gave me for Christmas as wrapping paper for my lamp... BEST WRAPPING PAPER EVER. :)

And this is me, toting the bag to College and Careers' every week. I'm soooo hot.

THE END.

Spanish Blueberry Pie Hat Camera - it tastes DELICOUS!

I'm so horribly sporadic at writing in these things.... get used to it.

Last night was grande - I got to hang out with 4 Spanish speakers from Spain, although 2 of them are from England now. The mother spoke English fluently, her son could speak almost fluently as well, her daughter knew all the words, but didn't know how to put them together, and often spoke so fast, I had no idea what she was saying, English or Spanish, and her brother spoke only Spanish.

IT WAS GLORIOUS. I did not realize how much I missed speaking Spanish with people! There were lots of little things that were different between Spain Spanish and Mexico Spanish (lots of the words are slurred weird), but it was so much fun to sit and chat about random things. They also said if I was ever in Northern Spain or England to call them up and come stay! :)

Also - I love how this journal is slowly becoming my DIY journal. I made a blueberry pie ALL BY MYSELF yesterday, and it doesn't taste as bad as I thought it would. I should take a photo of the half of it that is left. And the incredible

Alsoalso - today I may just go and buy the camera that I've been wanting to buy for like, 5 years. That being said, it's not a particular model I've been wanting for 5 years, so much as I just want to own a CAMERA! It'll be good for throwing in the back of my purse, and I especially want it if I'm about to go gallavanting about Canada this fall? Maybe?

Okay... got to go get ready for work and such. Smelly candles and table linens, here I come!!
