3 french toast, two turtle necks, and a beer.

hahaha. we're playing bob and doug mckenzie's 12 days of christmas. it makes me laugh. 5 golden toques? seriously? hahaha. so funny.

i'm still just not excited and in the christmas spirit. the stress about work has totally consumed my brain and how i feel. i just feel bummed all the time... even if it isn't my immediate emotion, it is lurking there underneath. i don't know what to do. i need to find something else. and the prospects of other jobs around here is just depressing. i have no education. no training. no qualifications. i am just back where i started - looking for yet another crappy time wasting job. why couldn't this have happened in march? and then i could just work my butt off washing windows for the summer - at least leading up to the wedding. it just puts everything else on the back burner. how are we going to make a month back packing in europe happen when i can't even pay half our rent with my paycheque? agh.

so much frustration.

... that's all i'm thinking about right now. i can't even think of anything else to write.

i am decorating cookies with jordi and megan after work tonight. i'm pretty excited about it. me and my mom and my friend tenille (who came at the last minute - she's home for christmas from toronto) made the most delicious chocolates i think i have EVER had yesterday. our order came in from rancho vignola. my mom ordered a big box of dates, and i ordered some expensive chocolate, and so we tried out one of jayme's ideas from my food for thought feature on my radio show. we did a special on edible gifts last week. so what we did was pitted the dates, and filled it with peanut butter, closed it back up, and then dipped the whole thing in melted dark chocolate. then we decorated them with melted white chocolate. it was super fun, they looked really good, and they tasted SO GOOD. next time you don't know what to get someone - i highly recommend this.

still haven't gotten the photos of my earrings... but my stock has massively depleted after gifting a whole bunch of them to people... i need to make some more! and i think i will need to make a few more trips to the bead store for supplies. and order some more feathers too. perhaps some different kinds of feathers. we'll see what i can find...

it would be really nice to supplement my income just by crafting and selling things. do you think that is possible?
