I am completely inconsistent and frightfully unorganized.<br />
<br />
Things this year have been complicated for me and it has kept me from most everything and weirdly everything is ok. It always amazes me how resilient mankind is. You can have setbacks, trauma, and horrible circumstances go on in your life and yet still carry on. That's how it's been for me. Setbacks.. circumstances.. not so much trauma unless you count my emotions and the turmoil that goes on there. Yet I can still wake up each day and find at least one thing to be thankful for.<br />
<br />
but I won't bore you with my drama.<br />

So off I got to the website to do some browsing. Needless to say I was super happy I did. The cause is amazing and the product is lovely. I knew I wanted some punjammies after I saw them, but I wanted them even more after reading the reason behind them. I purchased the ones shown above, but they go quickly so you have to buy while they have the color and fabric that you like. I love them. They're super comfy and more lovely than just wearing my regular yoga pants. :)<br />
and their motto is -- Wear Punjammies. Wear Hope.

<br />
To begin my life with the beginning of my life. I recall I was born. Born a peev to a very annoyed person. born with the capability of blowing up small buildings with relatively little effort.<br />
<br />
Ok, so not really. I was just sewn together and thrown on a desk to make my person happy. She's been wanting to say that she has a pet peev for awhile. No one understands her. I don't even understand her. Anyway... she made me and then left me here. Here at the library desk to collect dust, get gouged in the eye with towers of books, and sometimes squished by them. I saw everything & heard everything that went on. <br />
Then suddenly my life is turned upside down as she decides that I, yes, I am worthy of a big adventure. Why wait a year? Who knows, maybe she just needed the company in the car. I dunno. I'm not her. <br />
<br />
Anyway here I am at the desk, waiting to go on this big trip she speaks of in the previous blog.<br />
<br />
uh. must run. things to do. people to see. babies to make cry. :D<br />

He was inspired by <a href="http://bunny-comic.com/">bunny-comic</a> & these are his adventures. I made him last year for halloween and he stayed at my desk at work keeping me company. As of the beginning of this month he has decided he was tired of his desk job and wanted to have a big adventure. Or rather adventures. So far they've been sparse, but I'm planning to change that. He is like my traveling garden gnome. He gets to have adventures. Maybe with me or perhaps without. Whichever I decide. :)<br /><br />Recently Alber had the opportunity to travel to South Dakota to visit my wonderful sis. His first adventure was -- where else -- at Wal-Mart. The hopping Metropolis of Podunk, SD only has Wal-Mart. lol<br /><br /><br />Wal-mart before christmas time. Once we got started taking pictures we couldn't stop. It just sorta snowballed out of control. We were having so much fun I think we could have stayed in Wal-Mart the whole of the evening.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3h80W2-u7YQ9B8rzkF00ffEuvV6B14Z15Q91Z7EH0oZJDaWFOAS00SEL3IDdakN41zO_9WDHp2E0-fYpJbV_ZYpkiKov_Ipt0VAhk9Sp-YXZwec0VoiO50iqe68UcfqeDiEng8iEIRgjL/s1600-h/Alber+010.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3h80W2-u7YQ9B8rzkF00ffEuvV6B14Z15Q91Z7EH0oZJDaWFOAS00SEL3IDdakN41zO_9WDHp2E0-fYpJbV_ZYpkiKov_Ipt0VAhk9Sp-YXZwec0VoiO50iqe68UcfqeDiEng8iEIRgjL/s320/Alber+010.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421058236573067810" border="0" /></a><br /><br />What peev wouldn't want $3.50 fruit cake?

Oh.. wait.. I'm already doing that. ^_^<br /><br />I was in St. Louis over the weekend. I had a delightful time. It was a church conference, but I was able to see a lot of my family who were also there for the conference.<br /><br />While there I went to some of the downtown restaurants and let me just say... they have quite the selection. Was most impressed.<br /><br />The first night there I had 10th Street Italian, located well... on 10th St. IT was sooooo scrumptious. I had beef cannelloni that was out of this world. mmmhhh my mouth waters just thinking of it.<br /><br />The next day I went to Crepes in the City, located on 14th & St. Charles. I had a Dehli crepe. So yummy... and I also ordered a Cubano. I had never had one before, but I had read that theirs were the best in the city, so I figured 'what the heck I like coffee. I'll try it.' It. was. fantastic. try it.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZqg8nvMZ_QN1Jq7RuTufWWMtGOGhOjzrRu0SdJi4VQMzDMQgPkZwZJ-q_j7x2iPU-Bz5V_xy_kzn6zHQL2wWlOcpQrYkyOn75mPHPy7UJsDZN-7vLIKMpbYi4Zvd45b674Vowbj8b6R0g/s1600-h/IMG_0204%5B1%5D.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZqg8nvMZ_QN1Jq7RuTufWWMtGOGhOjzrRu0SdJi4VQMzDMQgPkZwZJ-q_j7x2iPU-Bz5V_xy_kzn6zHQL2wWlOcpQrYkyOn75mPHPy7UJsDZN-7vLIKMpbYi4Zvd45b674Vowbj8b6R0g/s320/IMG_0204%5B1%5D.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390601964341245730" /></a><br /><br />I'm not a breakfast person, but I like diner breakfasts. So for breakfast I went to 12th St. Diner. would you believe it's located on 12th St.! Seriously. <br /><br />I had pancakes. I know not very adventurous, but I wanted them. I haven't a lot to say about them. They were pancakes, they were filling and very good. I guess that I ordered what I wanted and then by the time they came I had changed my mind because they didn't hit the spot.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLMiEFCy3QbIh1WHd_N0uVR0eqNzKWCZf0xDNQmD70HGU0qNFj0yYdCox2qC8GPtHuAL9ThobYUehkxlO0xN8vtxrqKe92hjgqmmHzenCMfq38PXpltKg8HKiHIjA-RgxuwyFpIObKLzpf/s1600-h/IMG_0218%5B1%5D.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLMiEFCy3QbIh1WHd_N0uVR0eqNzKWCZf0xDNQmD70HGU0qNFj0yYdCox2qC8GPtHuAL9ThobYUehkxlO0xN8vtxrqKe92hjgqmmHzenCMfq38PXpltKg8HKiHIjA-RgxuwyFpIObKLzpf/s320/IMG_0218%5B1%5D.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390601272984921874" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOONfUcArQEVsQN8h4x6OMDIhBR0X4QQBVg5sb3uakLjJWflFgDceKYvrprlQwNDGIDfzfCM3vwKZO6K28kLj72Qq75l5Yb0LmSf33D5eJUazoPCbIqTVI3jPPXPTI9i8_aSB7qmQAqZeQ/s1600-h/IMG_0219%5B1%5D.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOONfUcArQEVsQN8h4x6OMDIhBR0X4QQBVg5sb3uakLjJWflFgDceKYvrprlQwNDGIDfzfCM3vwKZO6K28kLj72Qq75l5Yb0LmSf33D5eJUazoPCbIqTVI3jPPXPTI9i8_aSB7qmQAqZeQ/s320/IMG_0219%5B1%5D.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390601258980733922" /></a><br />HOWEVER. I went back for lunch/dinner later that day and I had their steak, veggies, & mashed potatoes. Oh mah gawd the mashed taters were soooooo good. I don't know how to describe them. They were like a pillow of heaven, on a plate, covered in delish gravy. After I had my first bite I wished that I had ordered just an enormous plate of those. The green beans could have been farm fresh they were so crisp and tasty and the steak... oh the steak. Mmmmhhhh... top that with potatoes and well...

So, I decided to make eggs. L. <a href="http://closetcooking.blogspot.com/2009/07/garlic-scape-pesto-scrambled-eggs-with.html">Garlic Scape Pesto scrambled eggs with asparagus & mushrooms</a>. I printed out the recipe before I went to the store so I'd have a list of the ingredients. I forgot however to look up garlic scapes... because I wanted to make not only scrambled eggs with asparagus & mushrooms... but with the <a href="http://closetcooking.blogspot.com/2009/07/garlic-scape-pesto-on-fusilli-with.html">garlic scape pesto</a> as well. I seriously felt like a dolt when I went to the store. It's not that I don't cook or that I don't use odd ingredients, it's just that I hadn't heard of garlic scapes. I searched the produce aisle for awhile and didn't find anything. I finally just asked. Yeah, they didn't have garlic scapes and to make me smile even more <span style="font-weight: bold;">they</span> didn't know what they were. I felt better.<br />I also discovered that crimini mushrooms are really baby portobella's -- #2 Lesson of the day completed.<br /><br />anyway, I went to Whole Foods and bought the "special" items and made the scrambled eggs which I loved. to steal from Rachel Ray Yummo!<br /><br />Thank you closet cooking. :DRipsyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05094707019956576679noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2748574157875780092.post-9908975205444162862009-07-08T07:16:00.001-07:002009-07-22T08:01:03.161-07:0072<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://ny-image1.etsy.com/il_430xN.79075893.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 430px; height: 614px;" src="http://ny-image1.etsy.com/il_430xN.79075893.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />Today I cannot concentrate worth piddly.

Eclipse brand which block light & sound. I have slept so much better. I think I actually wake up in the morning rested.<br /><br />...on to my first complaint of moving from a house to an apartment. Stupid neighbors.<br /><br />The neighbor who lives above us apparently has a problem with any sort of music because they have knocked on our door twice telling us to turn it down. and my biggest complaint isn't that they asked *so kindly*, but that the music wasn't that loud to begin with. For a person who usually listens to music that you can hear throughout an entire 4 bedroom home, volume 7 is pretty friggin' low. I could hear her knocking at my door - I had a fan running and was in the kitchen moving things around looking for a recipe. My music wasn't loud. My second part of the complaint is that she asked me at 6 o'clock p.m. Seriously?! what could you possibly be doing at 6p.m. that noise is "bothering" you?<br /><br />I didn't complain when I lived at my old place and could hear my neighbor across the street yelling at her white trash children. So really. <span style="font-weight:bold;">My</span> music is *too* loud? Seriously? <br /><br />damn.<br /><br />I think I need a cabin in the woods. complete with a kitchen worthy of a chef - even though I am not a chef by any means. I just love great kitchens. <br /><br />part one - I love to cook. I really do. I like to try new ingredients and I love when a dish turns out well and then turns into a favorite. My mother was telling me about <a href="http://sidewalkshoes.blogspot.com/">Sidewalk Shoes</a> yesterday so I took a peek.

If only I had the money to spend I'd buy <a href="http://eclecticeccentricity.bigcartel.com/product/youve-always-been-my-favourite-russian-doll-lululuxe">this</a> adorable matryoshka necklace.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://cache1.bigcartel.com/product_images/2010125/300.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 300px;" src="http://cache1.bigcartel.com/product_images/2010125/300.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Despite the fact that I love my friend dearly she committed pet peeve number 507,000. Apparently, if you don't mark your lunch at work it's free grazing for the horde of hungry individuals sharing air space with you. I brought my lunch for the week with me yesterday. 8 pieces of leftover pizza. I ate 2 for lunch @ 3:15pm. Later at about 7:30pm I'm feeling famished so I go to get another bit of pizza to hold me over until I get home and can eat something there. To my horror I am now down to 3 pieces! Seriously? It's not like it was in a pizza box. It was in a plastic container. Friend's excuse: it wasn't marked. <br />OMG! you've got to be kidding. If you didn't bring it, don't eat it. How many brain cells does that take? Supposedly, whomever told her that it was free for all was thinking it was the pizza ordered on May 1st. Well, I hate to break it to you, but with this bunch there are never left overs after the 2nd day. NEVER! if there are even left overs. <br /><br />I am ticked off about having to plan my lunches this week and still peeved at the fact that people think whatever is in the fridge is theirs for the trying. <br /><br />*sigh*<br /><br />like I said it's a pet peeve.<br /><br />I can't believe how frustrated and upset it makes me. Silly pet peeve I know, but I can not seem to help it. It's like someone stole from me. Nothing of worth, but something I needed.<br /><br />hrm.<br /><br />Otherwise it's a gorgeous day outside. I splurged and bought <a href="http://www.starbucksstore.com/products/shprodde.asp?SKU=222220">this loverly little glass</a> from Starbucks. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://iweb.starbucksstore.com//images/products/shprodde/222220.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 225px; height: 225px;" src="http://iweb.starbucksstore.com//images/products/shprodde/222220.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />it's pretty much the only thing that has made me smile today. I am still miffed. Starbucks has a special on iced coffee going right now. I am uber thrilled about that ~ obviously it doesn't take much. I'm pretty easy to please & piss off apparently. <br /><br />Oooo my friend invited me to a "sexy school girl" party this Friday. What does one wear to a party like that? ugh. this is why I never go out. <br /><br />I'd wear<a href="http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Dresses/Dawn-y+Iris+Dress"> this</a>, but I don't own it. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.modcloth.com/store/images/5500-1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 350px; height: 500px;" src="http://www.modcloth.com/store/images/5500-1.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />stupid budget.
