The other night I was in the kitchen making some chocolate mint truffles and Luna crawled into the cupboard. I thought it was hilarious and she reminds me so much of a little kid trying to find crawl spaces, so I took a picture. Then I washed the stuff she'd walked on, cause ew.
When I had saved a lot of recipes to try, I showed them to Doug. He graciously let me show him each one that I was excited about, and then I asked him what he wanted me to make first. He said the Mint Chocolate Truffles. (I ended up making the BTS cake first, but that had to do with timing). So I made these for him. He loved them, and they are quite good. On the recipe page it was rated as easy, and although it isn't as hard as I'm sure some recipes are, it wasn't easy. They took quite a bit of time and energy. The ingredients were easy, but the product not so much!
Yesterday I was feeling a little crafty and was on Pinterest and found this how-to for a homemade scarf. I went out to Target, bought a men's $5 shirt, and then cut it up. Then I tied knots all over and ended up with this:
Not bad for an easy, unique spring scarf! (not to mention perfect for St. Patrick's day).
Speaking of Target, I got a job there this morning! I had an interview for a Cashier position and was offered the position on the spot. I have to pass a drug and background test for it to be official, but neither of those are a problem for me! I'm excited to be able to work more and not feel so lazy!
It's hot here again today. Santa Ana winds were blowing all night, leaving it 80+ degrees today. Lots of sweet tea and now I'm planning on reading the afternoon away curled up with Luna (Doug's out golfing with my dad).
So happy it's the weekend!
