Bread and Fruits

Well, I made a loaf of bread today from scratch: Amish Sweet Bread. I didnt have loaf pans, but i used Pyrex bowls and it seemed to work out pretty good. The centers were a touch doughy, but totally delicious... one more thing off my list...
















































I then proceeded to try a new fruit: Red Pummelo


I found it at Trader Joes.

It is like a cross between an orange and a grapefruit. Turns out it is the largest citrus fruit. The rind is VERY spongy and the inside is messy and difficult to eat, but delicious....

Today I began to cross some things off my list. 3 out of 101 things have been completed and many more in progress of happening. :) It's crazy to think that i have to get through 98 more things, but I am still confident that I can do it.

Groundhog Day

Lovely Lake Michigan <3

I just discovered today that it doesnt even matter what type of mood the groundhog is in or what type of weather it is, because the decision of shadow seeing or not is determined by some old guys 2 weeks previous to the fact. and once again... 6 more weeks of winter. Though, with the beautiful weather today, i wouldnt be surprised if those guys were wrong.

Sometimes the creepy face of the past comes to haunt you...
When this happens,
Take a breath.
Who has breathed that air before you?
Who has stared with blaring eyes into the spot now shared in that mirror?

Just a guest on the wall,
The mirror has been given eyes.
Witnesses of the past,
Burned in the glass.

Turn on the light, and forget your worries.
Erase the circles that haunt you.
