The Sunday Salon

And now a bunch of useless information you never wanted to know about me. ;-)

Outside my window: Oh the heat! It's getting pretty bad.

I am listening to: Nothing this week. Well, nothing new.

I am watching: A list of shows I'm watching this summer: Teen Wolf...don't mock!
The Nine Lives of Chloe King...I don't now how much longer I can take it, though.
Covert Affairs....I love Oggie! Sigh!
Burn Notice...such a great show!

Falling Skies...really freaking awesome!!!!

I am thinking: Why are the things we HAVE to do so hard?!

I am grateful for: The Fourth of July, our american holiday and the giant pool party we have every year.

I am reading: Still, working on Middlemarch and am almost finished with Mercy by Rebecca Lim...I don't know what I think yet.

I am photographing: Nothing, I had hoped to have some fun stuff but that didn't turn out. Next week, though, next week.

I am listing: Nothing

I am creating: Ideas for how to organize my shelves. Come on, people, ideas?

Around the house: Argh! The ants are back in full force!I swear I've tried everything. Anyone have any suggestions?

From the kitchen: Remember the cookies I wanted to make? Well I made them twice. The first time the whole wheat flour I used had gone a little rancid so that was a bust. I made them again and I think they're quite good.  If you're interested here's the recipe. (note) If you're used to refined flour, sugar, etc. I'm not sure you'll like these. They're definitely "whole wheat".

One of my favorite things: Holidays, when I take a break from my diet. ;)

The children this week: No kids, just my cat Buns and she's not sure what to think of all the loud fireworks going on in the neighborhood all the time. 

Plans for the week: I don't even want to talk about it. You know when you have to do things you don't want to?...Yeah.
