Think about that for a minute.
I found that terribly inspiring and convicting quote over at Jessie's sweet little blog. Thank you, Jessie, I really needed that wake up call.
There are things I want to do! Not "some day", because we know that means "probably never". Instead, I want to seize the day and do things I want to do today, and every day.
Here are the things that have been on my mind to do lately:
make no-knead bread (this want arising from our family going through nearly two loaves of bread a week)
make homemade butter
make a quilt! (I've been wanting to do this since the winter, and just realized a day ago that I should do it now, before fall classes start)
In fact, speaking of things I would like to do, here's my list of resolutions made in February. Now I have to stop pretending that I never made that list.
This post is more of a mind-bleed than an update, but I will not leave you without posting a photo. First, my happy breakfast of spinach, zucchini, and eggs. Second, the summer scarf my mother in law mailed me.

I'm literally drooling over your scarf!! *Gorgeous*
It amazes me how our wants are sometimes! I just started making my first quilt--a wedding quilt for Joe's little brother who just got married. It is a landscape quilt and I want it now that I've started it! If all goes well, I will make another for Joe and I--a mountain sunset scene.
Also, I ate a wonderful squash, zucchini, and onion thing for dinner last night. Delicious!
I hope everything is going well out in Misery!
Ah! So many typos because I just woke up, but you get the point =)
