Saturday Craft Night

This week we decided that we would learn how to knit. Michelle was our teacher this week and taught us how to start (cast-on) and also do a basic knit stitch. Hopefully, I will be able to get the hang of it and actually knit something! It took me about an hour and a half to do 5 rows of stitches. In the beginning I thought big by wanting to do a scarf. I soon realized that I am not an awesome knitter and decided to think small and now I want to knit a bracelet. I think it would look rad.

First Dessert Night

This is the beginning of a new tradition. We actually decided to start our desert/craft club. On our first night we decided to make chocolate chip scones and hot caramel apple cider. It was a lovely fall night and everything was delicious. We didn't take pictures but I will do better next week.

Just throwing it out there

I have some ideas for some get togethers. This is for my own good so that I remember. I want to do a "make something new" night. Where a each week a group gets together and learns to make a drink, dish or a dessert. I like the drink called a tequila sunrise naturally, it would be minus the alcohol. I want to increase my skills in the kitchen.

I also want to do a craft night where a small group gets to learn a new crafty skill. I want to learn how to make beanies and other cute things.

On a side note, I got these rad John Deere fruit snacks. They are in the shape of a tractor, farm house, sun and even a cute little pig AND they taste good. Man my life is good.

Snicker Salad

I love snicker salad! It's quick and easy. It surely doesn't look pretty but it tastes delicious!
Here's the recipe:

Snicker Salad
1 (12 0z) tub of cool whip --I usually use the fat free kind
6 Granny Smith apples
2 cups milk
2 (3.4 0z) boxes vanilla pudding
6 regular snickers

First cut up the snickers and apples into bit size pieces. Pour milk into a large bowl and then stir in vanilla pudding until mixed well. Add the cool whip. Then add the apples and snickers. Stir all ingredients until mixed up nicely. Chill for one hour before serving.

Goals

So apparently I need life goals. What's this about? They never taught that stuff in college. Weird.

Just Spit it Out!

Okay here I go!

"Hi Reid,

It's Melissa...

Um...I like when you wear your glasses. (What I really want to say is, I think you are a good catch and really good looking)

The end...K Bye!"

Why is it so darn hard to say what you mean? I would really say that stuff! I totally sympathize with ya Reid. So call me!

Little Tidbits

1. I have commitment issues
For example, I can't sign a 1 year lease because I don't know if I will want to be there for a WHOLE year! AHHH! If I can't commit to a lease how am I ever going to be able to commit to a man! Yikes, I am in deep trouble.
2. I am socially clumsy
3. I admit that I enjoy to face-stalk. I have no excuse I just love it!
