Don’t become something just because someone else wants you to, or because it’s easy; you won’t be happy. You have to do what you really, really, really, really want to do even if it scares the shit out of youKristen Wiig (via heytinafey)
Hello all,
Once again, I apologize for the lack of updates. There’s not much I can complain about on this lovely, sunny, Saturday in the capital city. Dave and I moved into a sweet apartment near downtown (a 40 min. walk from work..which I try to do at least one way!). I started a job in March at a non-profit organization. It’s definitely a career type job, and I absolutely love it! I’m trying to plan my summer since I get a few weeks of vacation. I’m thinking cottages/camping/osheaga/possible weekend trip to NYC?! In the fall, I might plan a quick trip across the pond to visit folks in England as well as Sweden! We shall see.
Life is good!
![This is amazing. I’m hosting a Cinco de Mayo dinner party, so I thought this was very appropriate.

It’s Caturday!: Happy Cinco de Mayo! Now whether you’re legitimately in a celebratory mood because of Mexico’s victory over the French 150 years ago, or you’re a college kid in the mood to get ripped because you’re in college, one can ascertain that this cat surely means business (albeit socially/ethnically inappropriate business).

I just made this and am really excited to see how it turns out! I plan on using the same recipe again but with other flowers and herbs.
dandelion fizz recipe
6 cups dandelion flowers
5 quarts water
4 cups sugar, honey or other sweetener
2 lemons (less lemon or none if you use honey)
