Its Been Ages Again.....








So one would think with all the free time I have now that I'm no longer a uni student that I would be able to keep more up to date on my blog. But the truth is now that I'm not chained to my computer I don't remember to do the little things like update my blog.
So here goes what you've all missed in the last 2 months...
American Thanksgiving: I do recall I tried to post pics but stupid blogger wouldn't comply so I posted them instead on facebook. I hosted my first every thanksgiving with the help of my housemate Jenna and a friend of ours Lizzie. I roasted a turkey, peeled and mashed a billion potatoes, made sweet potatoes, stuffing and made a pumpkin pie completely from scratch! Lizzie brought roast potatoes and parsnips and Jenna made a lovely broken glass cake. All in all it was a success I would say :)

December 24th was Jenna's big 14th birthday. She had a party on the 12th since most people would be gone on the 24th, but we still had a cake and sang happy birthday on her actual birthday.

Christmas was fairly quiet, spent the day just chillin, Jenna and Zaza and I exchanged presents and then as I was feeling ill due to a cold and inner ear thingy I went back to bed for the better part of the day. Watched a few episodes of Big Bang Theory and just relaxed.
For Christmas Jenna got me an awesome fish tank for a new fish since my last one committed suicide.

Boxing day we made up for Christmas day. Jenna roasted a chicken and we had mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts as sides. Simple dinner, but very tasty. We had vanilla cupcakes that I had made for Jenna's birthday for pudding.


New Years Eve, Jenna and Zaza and I met up with some friends and brought in the new year. That leads us up to the present. I'm working on my visa application so that I can get it renewed and still working at the cathedral. Oh yeah I think I forgot to mention that. With all the free time I had I was bored and so I applied for a job at the cathedral. I work in the gift shop and the cathedral itself a few times a week. Nothing spectacular, but I do like the time I spend in the cathedral even if it is freezing cold.

Anyway, that's pretty much it and now your up to date on all that is me.
