Musings for the future

General topics I want to hash out/think about:
Stick vs. curve - Today's society and fashion
Communication is key
Disgust for materialism and its affects
Two paths diverge, or do they? (2x)
Opportunities missed, to be, overlooked, etc
The glue that holds the pieces together...
Standards to live up to or to hold others to
Can friendships interfere?
Confidantes: Essential or superfluous?
When fate ain't all it's cracked up to be
Summers: Are they the best of times or the worst of times?
What to do when the backspace key of life is broken?
Do you have to forget to move forward?
How essential are memories and should we remember everything?
Expectations: Great, not so great, insurmountable, and ridiculous.
16 vs 20 something vs 30 something vs ?
There's women's intuition and then there is just knowing...
What is the statute of limitations for apologies?
Standing up for yourself and/or standing up for others?
You have to live with yourself, you have to be comfortable with yourself
Alone time. Single, married, single again? Is there a difference? Some people are just built differently.

To Blog later

Many many things have happened since I last posted.

I am currently teaching Fundamentals of General Chemistry at Auburn University and this post will be brief as I have to prepare for class tomorrow.

Here is a list of things I'd like to blog about in the future - many of which have come to me over the past months since my move back to my alma mater.

Things are always changing, even in the Loveliest Village on the Plains.
A legendary family - something to be proud of and something to carry on.
The development of friendships - in another 25 years will I still be eating potluck dinner on the grounds next to you?

Votes on what to do first?

This is seriously the funniest episode of Community that they have produced so far! Quite possibly the most I've laughed at TV in a long time.

Experimental Cooking

So I was inspired by a friend the other day to try a little summin' summin' with cookie dough so here is my first foray into "mixed media" experimental desserts.

Step one:  The two components, cookie dough and brownie mix.

Step two:  Make a "crust" of cookie dough.

Step three:  Pour brownie mix over the dough.

Into the oven!

30-40 min later...

Aaaand the cut-away view

Fairly delicis!  Hope you enjoy!

Bridesmaid Pics

Here's the one everyone seems to like in bright horizon cotton material

Dark Marine a little too fancy (older looking style) maybe but the color makes it look even more formal

Another blue

Another blue...ideally the color would be blue velvet, not pictured
