i finished reading "julie & julia" a couple days ago and have been inspired to take on my own kind of year long project. mine will be more about trying new things and improving my skills in each area so i'll be baking, cooking, sewing, quilting, and crocheting...possibly throwing in some beading and painting as well just to up the insanity level a bit!
the plan is to bake something new every sunday, monday, & tuesday; leaving wednesday thru saturday for sewing, quilting, and crocheting. i will, of course, be on my regular workout, cleaning, shopping, family-time schedule during this time as well. my plan is to only use the supplies i have on hand since i already have an abundance of fabric, yarn, & thread for the crafting; the baking items will have to be replenished but that should be my only expense.
i'm hoping that by committing myself to this project i will actually follow something through to the end...i'm really, really bad with follow through. i also figure as long as i keep this blog then maybe someone will follow me and my journey down the road to insanity, thus making me feel way more guilty if i fail to stay on track! so, here's my begging...please, please, please follow me! i obviously have no problem begging! i'll post pics, honest reviews/opinions of patterns and recipes, and funny stories since i'm sure something worth laughing about will happen to me almost daily!
it all starts tomorrow with the baking of some cupcakes. i'm spending today just relaxing since i figure it may be my last chance for a year!
