Polka dot toenails and Bread!!

Well, the bread isn't perfect but it is still pretty damn good! The bottom is a bit moist but if you toast it, AMAZING! I put a little butter and jam on a big thick slice, it is to die for! Way better than store bought bread. I am on my way to being a master baker. Master baker....that is what I said. pervert. Geez.
I painted the toenails, finger too! Green with white polka dots. I think they look cute. Aren't you all happy I am without a job, otherwise who else's toes would you be reading about. I am going to take some more pictures this afternoon. I noticed some more sprouts this morning. We might be getting some frost tonight, so I have to find something to cover my strawberries and peppers. I don't want them to die. I think I might weave plastic bags together and get Frank to hold them all night. His contribution to the garden, other than his shit and piss. We'll see.

Avocado tree nubbin'!!

The pit has sprouted something on the bottom of it. Finally! James told me to throw it out the other day because it is doing nothing. Ha! Your face is doing nothing! (Not really though, your face does a lot, smiles, talks(a lot), makes me laugh, see a lot!)
Anyways, hopefully it will grow a tree, already. I am getting sick of looking at it.
Okay, don't lose patience. Stay with it.
Bread is out of the oven!! I hope it is cooked. I put it back in the oven for an extra five minutes. I couldn't leave it in for any longer or else the top would have burned. I will keep you posted.

The Peeps!!





Arthur, Ashley, Holly, Glendon and Michelle. These are the peeps who made it out to the housewarming party. Good times! We will have to have more parties this summer. It was so nice just sitting on the back deck in the sun. Keep it up gang!!

TUESDAY!! yeah it is.


The basil is growing!!

I planted strawberry and hot pepper plants outside today. My friends Glendon and Michelle brought them as a housewarming gift. We had a party to finally celebrate moving out of Toronto and into James’ house. It was a lot of fun. It was really nice to see everyone and to be partying out here instead of in Toronto. I hope that this can happen again more.

I am baking bread right now. This is my second attempt at baking bread from scratch. I want to master baking. I hope it works. So far it is better than the last time. Rising perfectly. I am trying to figure out what to have for dinner. Either Spicy pasta sauce with bow-tie pasta or shepherd’s pie.

I noticed a lilac tree outside yesterday. I am going to go and cut some off. I love lilacs. They are my favourite smelling flower. I am going to paint polka dots on my nails! Then read outside. I am still reading ‘Eat Pray Love’, she is now in India. So far, pretty good. I am looking forward to seeing the movie.

Grease is on t.v. right now. I had ‘hotdoggins!’ for lunch today. I can’t resist. They are the worst kind of meat, but I love them!

So far this has been a pretty wicked day!

Oh! I did my taxes yesterday. I have never done them before. They weren’t as hard as I thought they would be to do. They were really confusing, though. I am going to get James to check them. I am going to go and hand in my application to ‘The Humane Society’ in Oshawa. I want to be a cat cuddler!

Aren't we cute?

We are all making angry faces! HeeHee!

Grow an Avocado Tree!

I am trying to grow an Avocado Tree. Now, I have never done this before and so far nothing is happening. I think it needs more sun. Also you have to make sure it always has watching touching the bottom of the seed. It can't stay outside in the winter and it won't grow fruit for about 3 or 4 years. But I think it would be neat to have!
How to do it:
1. Cut up an Avocado, take out the pit. Wash the fruit off the pit under warm water, using your fingers. Dry with a paper towel.
2. Pierce the fattest part of the pit with toothpicks, I used bamboo kabob skewrs(sp?).
3. Fill up a container with water and place the pit on the top. You want the bottom to be in the water.
4. Place in a sunny area.
I will keep you posted. Hopefully it will sprout soon. It may take a couple of weeks.

Frank:Upclose and Personal

I woke him up to take this upclose picture. How much does he hate me? Not very much actually! We found a boo-boo on his right shoulder when we got back on Sunday night. I think it is from the fight he got into the other day. He was freaking out more than usual when we were giving him a bath, probably because the cut was hurting due to the soap and water. It doesn't seem to bother him now. Such a tough guy!
