cupcakes, kids, books and brothers..
- lastnight I made cupcakes at 11:15pm. Part of my 'healing process' you know. Honestly I was bummed I didn't have brownie mix... as there's nothing like a spoonful of that chocolate uncooked goodness to heal a broken heart. My high school best friend, Kelli, and I used to eat it all the time. mmmm... brownie miiiiiiiix. BUT, I made cupcakes instead... and they turned out quite well for not having 1 of the 3 eggs, and having to use olive oil instead of veg. oil. I was worried, but they came out fine. Funny thing was - today when I went to have one there was a big chunk of egg shell in the middle of the one I bit into. Considering I only had 2 eggs in there, I think it's safe to say I got the *one* that had any egg shells in it, but thank goodness it was me instead of my drum teacher who I just gave 2 to this morning. :)- under "INTROSPECTIVE" in this post by mimi smartypants, she touches on some of the fears I have about how hard it would be to have children. I've been reading her blog a lot and really enjoy it... she's funny. My friend, Lucia, turned me onto it, who's blog I have also been keeping up with.
- this book looks fascinating. is this like "collective consciousness"?
- I don't think I told you - but it was SO GREAT seeing my brother last Sat. night. Him and his girlfriend, Samara, where up here for the Fashion Mart show, showing his Om Gallery goods. We all had a few beers here & then went out to Emmy's for dinner. I hit it off with the hott bartender girl and we all sat around drinking wine and enjoying the DJ. I heart Emmy's!! Afterwards I wanted so bad to drag them out to a show. There were FOUR excellent shows and I'm sad to report I didn't get to one of them. Max & Samara were wiped out from work that day and had to get up at 7am the next - so they prepared me it was going to be a low-key night for them from the start. I considered going to a show w/o them, but since my place is so small - I didn't feel right stumbling in later... so we had a little mini after-party here and then went to bed. (they stayed on my new futon & said it's comfy - woohoo!) The next day we all got up early and later on me & my friend Lyne went down to say hello and check out their booth. Max and Samara are the cutest, sweetest couple together and I am so happy for them. It was great to reconnect and I look forward to going down there or having them up here again soon.
