Christmas Break

Long time no blog!  I have several things to blame, but I also think that I have this weird disorder that kinda sucks.  A disorder where I do nothing when I have nothing to do, and then when I have a million things to do I enjoy killing myself by adding even more.  For example, I slept over break, for like a lot of it.  But today I was pretty much non-stop, yet I feel like I have the energy to write a blog post at 1:30 in the morning...

But break went something like this.

Baking with the sista.

Mmm, tasty treat platter!!

Trying the buttermilk for a recipe.  For any curious, no, it is not delicious.

Then Christmas.  It started with work on Christmas Eve, not a huge deal, but mean people almost took away my Christmas spirit.  I just don't understand being rude... Grinch's...  But then there was lots more baking and family time which brought the happy back into my life.

Me and my sister again, sporting our aprons.

A couple days later was a surgery.  No worries, I'm not dying or anything.  This is where the sleeping comes in.

Part of the reason I slept for almost 3 straight days.

So there was break.  Exciting, I know.  But it really was restful and I spent a lot of time with my family, who I love despite some crazy.

I have had a little bit more bloggable material during the past couple of days so I won't be so absent.  I've missed you too.

Laziness...

This is what accumulated over finals.  I take two things from this picture.  One, I have moments of obscene laziness.  Two, I drank so much tea/hot chocolate/mocha during finals. Needed to stay awake somehow!  Rest assured they are now all in the dish washer.

An Attempt at Focus

Right now I need to be writing a post for my large group blog (found here) but I would much rather dance around in my new adorable underwear. Unfortunately it is far to cold for that :(  But I guess I'm just here to get out some kinks before I write things that other people are going to read.  People that don't know me well and will judge me on my writing skills.

So I was just reading what I had written so far and realized that I started the paragraph with write instead of right.  Ya, getting kinks out here first was a good idea.  

Anyway, like I was saying I'm rather distracted right now, just with life in general.  Focus Rachael, focus!!

Random side note, I don't like Koolaid at all, but everyonce in a while my body gets in these weird moods where I can drink nothing other than Fruit Punch Koolaid.  I somehow manage to drink close to 2 quarts while doing homework. Seriously one of my weirdest phenomena ever.

Ok, I'm going to go try to do this...

Any Takers??

I have 4 coupons to the California Pizza Kitchen if anyone wants them.  They expire Oct. 8.  They are kind-of a scratch off coupon thing except someone at the CPK has to open it for you to see what your prize is.  Let me know if you want them!
