On Various Things

Have finally resumed knitting, thank god. It looks like I may actually get my friend's Redskins scarf completed before the football season. At the very least before next winter. :-P
Purchased a Lush Bath Bomb and tried it out on Wednesday. Oh. My. God. I need a million more of these in my life. I am going to take SO MANY BATHS it will be EPIC!
Palmer and I signed up for a Meat CSA. Once a month we'll be getting 12 pounds of meat from a farm in Pennsylvania. We chose the "Everything" package, so we'll be receiving beef, chicken, pork, and lamb, all pasture raised. I am excite! We signed up for 3 months of it, so we'll see how it goes. First pick-up is next week!
Work is just getting worse and worse. I have been seriously tempted to quit twice in the last week. Thank god the semester is almost over, and I can GTFO. I have officially started the job search, and sent in an application yesterday for an internship with a global sustainable development company. Cross your fingers!
Cooking tonight- making this avocado pasta (2nd try, first time we got an avocado that wasn't ripe enough, so it didn't blend well) with a spinach salad and fresh bread. Can you tell we went to a farmer's market today?
Resumed my blogspot experiment, and started with a post about blackberry vodka. Check it out!
Going to procrastinate for a bit more, then get a start on my Annotated Bib that's due tomorrow, simply so I don't have to freak out about it then. There may possibly be a pedicure.

Fingers are crossed for your job search: best of luck! ♥

Date: 2012-04-17 01:54 pm (UTC)The meat thing is super exciting! Each month a different animal will be the "focus" so we'll get, say, a whole chicken, and then cuts of the other meats. I just- I really like eating meat, but its been becoming harder to justify (to myself) eating meat that is factory farmed. Especially pork. So, by doing this CSA, I know that the animals are raised and allowed to be animals, and that when they're killed, they've at least lived, you know? That sounded really sentimental, but that's what I'm feeling.
And thank you! Gotta keep on keeping on.
