Unfortunate Events
1. Two words: Jazz midterm
2. During the gap between my classes I fell asleep at a study desk in the library (may have drooled a tiny bit).
3. While grocery shopping at Trader Joe's I managed to drop a carton of raspberries (which sprung open and sent raspberries rolling across the linoleum), a few russet potatoes (apparently I didn't remember that you don't pull out the one from the bottom), and dropped my sample of bartlett pears and toscano cheese. You would think that I'm turning six years old next month, not twenty.
4. Made some slip-ups with today's recipe
Awesome Events
1. Only had to be in Jazz History for half an hour.
2. Got a solid half hour nap in at the library.
3. After dropping my pears and cheese a nice lady brought me a second sample.
But the best part of the day was another experience with the generous gluten-free blogging world!
Now that my blog is not as rough around the edges, I feel a little more comfortable in advertising The Blue Table. The Whole Life Nutrition Kitchen is a fabulous gluten-free blog with wholesome (and super delicious) recipes. I sent the co-creator, Ali, an e-mail while I was in between classes today. To my amazement, she responded with flattering compliments and encouraging words. She was also kind enough to mention me on the Whole Life Nutrition Facebook page!
Thank you so much to anyone and everyone who has contributed to the success of this blog! Whether you're a close friend, a Facebook friend, or a new follower, I can't begin to express my gratitude towards you. I try to avoid being a cheeseball, but it truly does warm my heart.
Today's recipe had potential, but it just didn't come through. I stumbled upon the recipe for cardamom tea bread on foodgawker and thought "I love cardamom, tea, and gluten-free bread. Jackpot."
However, the recipe was in grams and ounces, and I have yet to invest in a food scale. My birthday is in 18 days though... *wink*
And I forgot to fold in the cranberries! Come on!
Poor little sunken loaf.
Here's the recipe, I know someone else can make this work and I'll try again sometime!
Naturally, Casper was quite indifferent to all these ups and downs.
Life is so hard.
