Friday Five

1.  I tried to give up desserts. I only made it a week before I caved. I have sucessfully done dessert fasts before. How did I so easily forget what has been working for me? Small indulgences work.

2.  There was a storm Wednesday night and our power went out...right after I turned on the stove to make dinner. I waited a few minutes and then put all the food away. We had PB&J and chips for dinner. That is the dinner of champions, right? The power was out for almost 1.5 hours. I am actually surprised that the it does not go out more often, given the woods in our area.

3.  I think we are going to our sister church's Barn Bash tonight. It is probably geared mainly towards kids, but we have a bunch of friends that will be there and we have not seen them in months. It might be nice to go eat BBQ, eat dessert, and chat with friends. It will be a cool and breezy night (40s), so I will find a cozy sweater to wear. I'm hoping for a bonfire and apple cider.

4.  I may or may not be obsessed with downloading the game Angry Birds onto my cell phone. Evidently my particular model has some screen resolution issues with the game and so it is not available. I may or may not check the market place multiple times every day to see if the issues have been resolved and it has become available.

5.  I was supposed to go to a Taiwanese cooking class last night but it was cancelled. I am so totally bummed out! I have been to a bunch of these classes and they are awesome. As in, they rock! The last two I signed up for have been cancelled due to lack of participation. I think I need to drum up some attendees for the next one so it does not get cancelled too. BUMMER!
