i am so fucking excited for zach and i's running sunday brunch date! he's the cutest!
today was so much fun! happy birthday to me!

i made a dress!

i know this isn't a great picture and i really need a digital camera.
but, here it is anyway.

i have a few more seams to finish up and i've got myself a birthday outfit!

girls fucking suck.

i seriously hate every one of their stinkin guts.
maybe not everrrryy girl. but a good friend is one in three million these days.

food

so all of a sudden i'm a line cook and it feels like this is what i should have been doing my whole life. i love developing my palette. i love learning about traditions of taste and flavor. i love that the best tasting food is always the smartest and most ecologically responsible food. i love that i work for people with the best intentions. i am so eager to learn and truly excited about the smallest of things. reading books and watching movies is finally exciting because i'm reading about food. it's so much work, all of it, physically and mentally. and sometimes I think that i would rather be lazy, but i would never be happy. i would never find fulfillment. and for the first time in my life i am eager to be older because i know i will be wiser. i want to have experiences and i just want to have a chance to cook anything i can. i have an amazing group of teachers and i couldn't be more thankful. it's always so hard for me to step out of my comfort zone. but, slow and steady wins the race, yeah?

i got a sewing machine for christmas!

this was my first project.... a pot holder for jenn's birthday!

a little sloppy because i haven't sewn since high school, but i'm pleased with it. :D

i am so not getting fat this winter.
i started doing some simple exercises three or four times a week and i've already lost five pounds since summer.
i feel great and my legs and butt have never looked better!
and i still eat and drink whatever i want.
my nice winter coat was just a little too big for me on sunday night.
yayy!
