I've been thinking about doing something similar using chalkboard "paint" in my future home...now I know there is a nifty pen that would be perfect to use!

Saturday Night Live...

The picture below is a little chat between me and Bestie from last Saturday's night of random fun . Read starting from the bottom up.

Musak Mondays!

I'm actually pretty surprised that I haven't posted this song before. Sia is a fascinating artist to me. You never really know what you will get from her but whatever it is..it's very Sia. I used to have a love/hate relationship with her music. Namely her voice. I love it at times but can often be pretty nasally for my taste. I found, however, that that really depends on the type of song she sings. She does BEA-U-TIFUL ballads that can carry you away. The link is for the song "My Love"...my favorite one of hers (that is until I listen to "Breath me," which then quickly will be my favorite until hearing "My love" once more) Anywho...enough talk....

Disfrute!!

A reminder to make this my last degree

A Moment to Myself

typical saturday night.....

• eat sushi
• listen to dance party music
• spend an hour entranced with cookie porn from here
• decide to make cookies after all that visual lust
• get into deep discussion about junk DNA and cancer while cookies bake
• make picture art with sparklers
• herbal meditation
• discuss Game of Thrones
• discuss interesting culinary uses for lavender
• fix some drinks
• go down jamiroquai memory lane with his discography
• do the same with Beck

So this is a list of the things that kept me and Bestie from hitting up a club or lounge tonight like we intended.

The obvious answer to this social issue is to stop procreating.

Lavender Lemonade
Herb Citrus Cordial (makes 4-5 pints)
Ingredients:
6 cup sugar
Zest of 6 citrus, in large pieces of peel
4 cups fresh citrus juice
2 cup water
2 cups lavender
Method:
In a large pot bring sugar, zest, juice, and water to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved.
Remove from heat. Add the herbs and let the syrup infuse for at least 15 minutes.
Meantime prepare your canning jars. Strain syrup through a fine sieve, squeezing out as much syrup as possible from the herb leaves before discarding them. Boiling water process for 10 minutes.
Sip on a back porch or deck and pity those who aren’t drinking this delectable concoction.
