i decided to take bereavment leave even though i can’t make it out to colorado. it was at daecon’s urging, because i didn’t really think it was necessary. i’ve had my full-out crying and now there is this empty space in my heart. i’m have this urge to go on a long distance drive.

so saturday i got the urge to rearrange my kitchen cabinets, and realized that i had meant to make a cherry pie the other day. never made pie crust from scratch before, seen my mom and grandma do it a hundred times at least. so i did, and i was mightely impressed with myself. it was a lot easier than i thought. hell, it was a piece of cake. well.. pie.

anyway, i went over to kip and jennifer’s for their one day back in town and cut out a couple of shirts. they are always good to visit when i want low-maintenance, no drama company. she’s the only one, except dreama (whom i never get to see these days) that’s interested in canning and cooking. and well, she runs a costuming business, so i don’t get funny looks for that, either.

i’m surprised every time someone tells me they don’t know how to cook. especially women. maybe i’m applying stereo types, but i think everyone should at least know the basics. like how to make scrambled eggs and plain ol’ rice. i recently taught a friend how to do this.

ok… i digress. i’m going to go borrow debbie’s sewing machine and put these shirts together. hopefully they turn out well enough to wear to work.
