Baking...

OK, so I've been wanting to bake something other than frozen pizza since I've been here, but haven't had the time or the ingredients to do it yet. However, after finally getting some flour, sugar...other random things, I am going to make some banana bread! It's about time I do something with those rotten bananas anyways. So yea, I'm super excited to finally use the oven for what its meant to be used for. And, since Matt could care less about banana bread, I get to use real eggs! Yea I'll let you know how it turns out...btw, baking soda and baking powder are basically the same thing...right?

Now that the banana bread is in the oven, I have an urge to continue baking and make some cookies...but then I'd have to use egg replacer, and I don't feel like dealing with that at the moment. However, I do feel very domestic right now and might just clean the entire apartment today, lol. It needs to be done, that's for sure. The problem with such a small apartment is that when the slightest thing is out of place, the whole room looks cluttered. No matter how many times I clean the dishes, there are always more 2 seconds later. So annoying! I really wish we had a dish washer, but oh well. I guess this is good training for me.

Anywayz, since I have written last, not much has happened really. I am still working every day at Seton, grading and reading. Nothing new and exciting there. This past weekend was pretty chill for the most part. On Friday I finally hung out with Maddie! We went out for coffee at the Daily Grind on main street, and then went back to her place where I talked with her and Nick for awhile. It was so nice to finally hang out with a friend who is a girl! lol. Maddie and I are going to try to get together more often since Nick is in class a couple nights a week.

Last night, I went to the Christendom girls' soccer practice for the first time....my muscles are so sore right now. I have done zero exercising since I've been here, so it felt nice. Then Matt, Theresa, Hadro, Cyrus, and I went bowling. Fun times. OK well, I think I've ranted on long enough, and the banana bread is done now, yay!
