1. Tomorrow is the end of the Hair-a-thon! That’s right, 3 years will be up and I’m chopping off approx 16 inches! Good riddance. (Pictures on Wordless Wednesday)
2. They’re sealing the concrete today (finally) which means that we can start back up on the yard again soon! Halleluja! All we’ve got left is laying new sprinklers, putting down sod, planting some lantana and laying more rock and we’re pretty much done.
3. It’s almost Halloween. That means that it’s time to get blood punch going. I’ll post the recipe for that (with pictures sometime next week) the best thing about it is that if you do it right… it starts to coagulate!
4. We watched Real Genius last night – a movie that I sadly had not seen before – and while I dislike Val Kilmer in almost everything he’s done (excluding True Romance and Tombstone), I happened to love his character in this. If you haven’t seen it, don’t deprive yourself any longer.
5. Apparently the farm girl in me has come back with a vengeance… I’ve stopped drinking any soda on the week days. Instead I stick to water and skim milk. However, between cereal and drinking it, I’ve gone through 2 gallons of milk since Sunday evening… I looked. Technically I’m only saving 10 calories per serving by drinking milk instead of 7-up… but at least I’m getting a log to calcium (?).
The brain soup of a geek girl who doesn't know how to smile, adores her ewok, and is figuring things out one cup of tea at a time.
Milk is usually cheaper than soda! Right?
ReplyDeleteI like Val Kilmer. It started with a love I couldn't deny in middle school with The Saint.
Can't wait for the blood punch recipe! So excited.
