My 2nd sweater


So I've been knitting this sweater since the end of October but just haven't blogged about it. You'll find my updates on Ravelry. I'm almost done now but just need to sew all the pieces together. Ughh. I can't stand this part. I'm taking forever. But I can't wait 'til it's done. So far it looks like it's gonna be big on me. Hm, and I even went down a size when starting the project. The picture doesn't do it justice. I just take bad pictures. I'll post another one when I'm finally done w/ it.

Fa-Yeah!


I really like this new yogurt I found. It's called Fage. Pronounced Fa-yeh!. That's what it says on the carton. But specifically, I only really like the 2% yogurt w/ honey. The yogurt is thick and smooth and creamy and the honey is in it's own separate compartment, so you can put as much or as little as you want. Me, I put it allll in. =D The honey is thick and not watered down like a few other honey yogurts I've tried. I can really taste the honey and it's little crystals. Word of warning: This stuff is really thick and may be pretty filling.

I also like Saint BenoƮt Yogurt in honey. The honey flavor isn't quite as strong in comparison to Fage, but it's still a good flavor. It's definitely lighter than Fage and is easy to swallow. Kinda like silken tofu w/ ginger sugar sauce. When I open the cover it smells like butter. heh. And the container it's in is cool: ceramic. I like that it's organic and that they encourage reusable containers. One little gripe I have is that it has a powdery feel in your mouth. I think it might be because of the skin that dries on the top of the yogurt.

Baby Super Mario

My son as Super Mario. He's wearing jean overalls w/ huge yellow buttons, a long sleeve red onesie, a cap that I sprayed red, and white socks on his hands. I bought felt and cut out the M logo and the mustache. I initially bought a red cap online but it was on back order for almost a month. Needless to say I canceled and just bought fabric spray.

Fat jeans

Last week I wore my fat jeans. It was time to change out of them and then I found that I had pulled it down w/o unbuttoning or unzippering it. Wahoo! My fat jeans are loose on me again! Now, on to fat jeans #2. I haven't been able to button that one yet. 'Can't wait 'til those are loose on me again too!

Sarcasm is...

So I just had a fight w/ DH last night and at one point he used sarcasm. The fights over now and we'll get over it, but this morning I began to think...what type of ppl use sarcasm? What is sarcasm to you?

Sarcasm is for ppl that have nothing better to say.
Sarcasm is for ppl that just want to put others down.
Sarcasm is childish.
Sarcasm is a sharp and often satirical or ironic utterance designed to cut or give pain.

Now I'm no saint myself. I've used sarcasm in the past too. I just feel that sarcasm gets you nowhere and is not very progressive. I just want to know, what is sarcasm to you?

Update on the health of my car

It's doing just fine now. Last night DH fixed my phone and iPod problem. He restarted my phone and reset my iPod. Man, I'm really portraying myself as a stereotypical girl who knows nothing about fixing cars and gadgets. I probably would've eventually fixed it myself. I just haven't put in the time since I just go in and out of the car w/ no time to sit and fiddle w/ it. Bleah.

Harbinger of Car Death

I am the harbinger of car death. Hear me roar. Raarrrr!

This year it seems that every car I touch breaks down on me in some way or another. :( This time my car's iPod connection stopped working. But before that the phone connection is acting up and when I click the phone to talk it's just a bunch of static. The gate opener had really good reach when it was first set but now I have to drive really close before the sensor can receive the message. The iPod no longer connecting was just my final confirmation that I'm a disease to cars. Ughh. Maybe I should just stop driving for the rest of the year.
