Catching Up!

A lot has been going on the last few weeks. So I thought I would try to remember and catch up the blog. 

Start with the beginning, I got bored, and talked Justin into letting me decorate for Christmas.

(I have no Halloween Decorations, and no money to buy some)

Maybe Next Year.

I love Christmas Time! Even though it is still 2 months away.

A couple weeks ago, I had a job interview with the Church. I was so excited to get the chance.

I went into the interview so CONFIDENT, but that made me over-confident.

I MESSED UP! I was so upset, I cried! So I was hoping they saw potential in me, enough to give me the job. They told us it would be a week and a half before we found out if we got the job, So I was expecting the agonizing wait, just to be told I didn't get the job. But to my surprise, I got a call 2 days later saying I got the job!

So I have spent the last 2 days in Training and my first official shift starts at 9pm tonight!

I am very proud of myself. 

I haven't had a job in almost 2 years. So I am not out in public very often, So after training on Monday, I came home, and started sneezing and coughing, Yup, Came home with a COLD!

Time for some Emergen-C! 

But, I won't let the COLD keep me down! BRING IT ON!

Anyway, I have been in a baking mood lately. So while I was watching my sister's kids on Saturday, I decided it was time to bake something with the kids. So I had all the ingredients to make Peanut Butter Cookies, So I started making these 15 ingredient cookies. But, While I was adding the ingredients together, the kids were fighting, so I broke it up and went back to adding the ingredients together, and popped them in the oven. I took them out after 10 minutes and let them cool, and then we snacked.

They tasted funny, I couldn't quite put my finger on it. My dad just thought they were overdone, so I took the next batch out earlier, Then my sister ate one, and she knew exactly what was wrong.

I LEFT OUT THE SUGAR! 

(while I was breaking up the fight!) 

So I ended up throwing the 50 cookies away. SAD DAY!

They Looked good though!

The Next project was making homemade Pretzels. 

These actually turned out pretty good, Justin helped with those, Probably why they were good, LOL

Quite a process though. 

Then the last of my baking, only took about 4 minutes to make and bake. 

I made a microwave peanut butter cake. It was a little dry after a couple minutes, but was really good!!

Lots of baking and trying new things. 

I feel like the future is so uncertain, but for the first time in my life, I am kind of excited with the uncertainty.
