Today I made fabulous little cherry tomato things with my sister. You hollow out the cherry tomatoes and add this cream cheese/mayonnaise/dill weed/ diced cucumber filling. They are SO GOOD.

Then I went to see the Kit Kittredge movie. It was a little surreal to see that right after seeing Dark Knight. It's like the un-Dark Knight.

Then I finished a picture I started on yesterday.

Crescent Roll Stew Thingies

1 can refrigerated big crescent rolls (6 rolls)
1/2 package chopped-up stew meats
1 potato
1 carrot
salt and pepper
---
Peel & chop the carrot and potato. Put them in a pot and cover with water, then start boiling them. When they're close to getting soft, brown the meat in a frying pan.
Add salt and pepper to the meats.
When the chopped carrots and potatoes are soft, drain the water.

Then lay the crescent rolls flat on a baking sheet. Put a little pile of the potatoes and carrots and meat onto the wide end of the rolls. Then roll them up into a sort of pouch.
Repeat until all the rolls are filled.

Bake according to instructions on the crescent roll package. Take them out when they get golden brown on top.

Om nom nom

Flour is not pancake mix.
Pancakes made of only flour and water are not yummy.
Label your tupperwares of dry goods.

Napped all afternoon, watched LOST, enjoyed some e-drama and the fine, full inbox that entails, drew and colored a big picture in one sitting, got nauseous, ate some food, watched some romantic comedy with Edward Norton on cable, and made pancakes with whipped cream.

I approve of today.

I've been re-playing Twilight Princess now. And I've stopped playing for the night because the Water Temple is up next *stabs eyes with stick*

Today I ate a chicken salad and some pancakes, but just a few hours after eating the pancakes, I started shaking and getting a cold sweat because I was so hungry. So I hastily made another salad, and I was so hungry I just ate it with my bare hands. After that, I made more pancakes too just so I was sure I wasn't hungry anymore.

It's been all snowy and such lately. Yesterday I went to Baraboo and we drove through the snow for more than an hour. Didn't skid or anything though, thankfully.

Today I'm gonna make a lasagna.

You can replay your painting when you're done! it's cool.

I made a bowl of microwave chicken teriyaki rice stuff, and it was horribs! Don't buy it.

Made some cupcakes today.

And my leg is really sore, I think from swimming so much yesterday.

And today, I've discovered that pixel art is a PAIN.

Arpie out.

Today Scott came over and we made pizza patties. then my sisters came over and me and Kim and Scott went for a walk while sleepy Amber stayed at home.
We saw the Alien Arm which Smelt of Death. It looked like a lobster or an alien arm. It smelled stinky. It scared me and Kim, and Scott could not figure out what it was even though he stared and stared.

Right now I'm trying to wrestle my artwork into something nice-looking. I just need some photo references, and it should turn out quite lovely.

Today I puttered around the Internet, not doing much. Later, I watched "Beauty and the Geek" and I really think it's one of the better reality shows. It's really sweet-natured compared to many, and significantly less tacky. Also, I love all the geeks. I want to meet them.

Then I suddenly get an urge to bake something. So I gather up some change, and walk down to Stuff-Mart to buy some cake mix and icing. I walk back, and I get home just as it's getting dark.
And then I realize there are no eggs. So I can't make my cake. I prepared the batter and it became all lumpy while it sat in the fridge, waiting for my man to get home and buy me some eggs.
But it just finished baking now, and it looks okay. We'll see how it tastes.

Umm, and that's all.
