In the last few months I've been sorely absent from my blog, on one hand the chaos that tends to descend upon life around the fall season, on the other the fact that I got lazy. What makes me sad is that over the past few months I've had a few amazingly awesome firsts! I used my friends pressure caner to make soup stock, I learned how to make meringues and how to knit a pair of socks on a set of 40" circular needles. My lemon tree finally had a fruit ripen, and the orange tree's single orange is doing it's darnedest to turn from yellow to orange. I also managed to forget to turn the stove off one night, and had to chisel 2 quarts of apple sauce that had charred to the bottom.
I'll go more in depth with these later, but for now I just wanted to get started on writing again! I hope everyone's having a great holiday season, whatever it is you choose to celebrate!
