I Get to Work Here!

I love the Sanford campus on Fridays. There are not a lot of classes in session, so it's so quiet and peaceful. It was overcast today, but otherwise it was a great day to sit outside and enjoy it. This was the view while eating my tasty avocado cucumber sandwich and reading Craft, Inc.

It's going to be great to back in my office and settled next week, but I will miss all of my outside time.

Top Five Comedies of the 90's

For some strange reason, our household just went off on a complete tangent and started the long process of making a Top Five Comedies of the 90's list. 

Here it is, in no particular order:

Wayne's World

The Big Lebowski*

South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut

Office Space

Dumb & Dumber*

(*NOTE: Not every member of our household voted for every movie on our list. You could probably guess who didn't vote for these two.)

Homeade Stromboli!

Last night I made stromboli for the first time. It was based on the recipe from Vegan Lunch Box Around the World, but with different veggies (and with cheese). I made mine with zucchini, mushrooms, onion, and mozzarella. I thought it was going to explode in the oven, but it was still basically sealed up.

I highly recommend Vegan Lunch Box Around the World (and veganlunchbox.blogspot.com)!

What I Learned Today...

I used Windows 7 for the first time today. I won't get into my issues with it, but I do want to share something I really like about it: the desktop themes! I have no problem admitting I'm nerdy enough to enjoy having my desktop background change on its own. However, to me, the best part of some of the art used in the pre-installed themes. My absolute favorite is this one:

The handsome cupcake fellow in the bottom right corner is one of the best things I've ever seen. I had no clue who the artist was, but set out on a mission to figure it out. After a lot of Googling, I realized the artist's name was wear it should be: attached to the file. Kat Leuizinger. Unfortunately, I can't find much of her work anywhere (except zipper pulls and a non-functional website). I want more!

Winter Wardrobe

I always say that I look better in winter clothing, and I mean it! Maybe it's just that my love of sweaters, scarves, and such shines through. You have to understand, it's a pretty rare occasion to pull out cold weather clothing in Central Florida. I picked up this short sleeved sweater this weekend. It's the second of its kind that I've found this month. I'll post a picture of the other soon!

Neighborhood Quackers

This is what it's like all of the time in front of my mom's apartment. I'm jealous of the quackers walking right up to her front door. She hates them because they start their quacking at 6am.

At Starbucks, There Is a Lot to Observe...
