clueless

I've got a lot going on right now, and I wish I had some more down time and time to be creative. Jennie stayed with me for the weekend though, and we had an amazing time. We ate a lot of focaccia bread, watched a lot of Arrested Development, and made a Halloween themed gingerbread house (which is much more difficult than it looks.)

This is the one side left standing, with a sugar ghost and pumpkin fudge made to look like hay bails, and gum balls pumpkins stacked on top.

Here's the worst part. It was standing for a while, with candy corn lining the roof, but it slowly slid and collapsed.


And that is supposed to read "RIP" in jelly beans. I would really love to know how to make a quality gingerbread house someday.

Here are the new shoes I was talking about. My scarf is in the way, but you get the gist of it. I'm in love!
On Saturday I went on a tour of U of T, and I love it more than ever. It is this virtual oasis inside the bustling Toronto, and it has these hidden pocket courtyards surrounded by old stone, vine covered buildings from the 1800's.

I went to U of T -- twice! I liked it so much that I haven't been able to leave yet!
