2006-09-05 * Around the House

So this weekend? I was really, really lazy. But hello! Did you see that there was not only a Murder, She Wrote marathon, but also a CSI marathon? But because I chronicle my life even when my life consists of ordering takeout (thank you sweetie!) and staying in my pjs or pj equivalent for over 18 hours, I will share with you:

The HUGE spider making a web exactly at head level across the center of the bathroom doorway. High traffic area, no good for spider webs, or HUGE spiders. It was, ahem, relocated.
And

Radishes, I love radishes. I was not a convert to their crunchy spicyness until a few years ago, but I'm making up for lost time. I keep them in a bowl of water in the fridge and then eat them with rough sea salt. Mmmm...
And this

I am not a very good flower arranger, so I was quite proud of myself for thinking to use my glass teapot to hold these dear little spray roses from Trader Joe's. I do think I might have cut the stems down a bit more, but I didn't want to get too cocky after my first success.

Oh and these!

Little pink grapefruit gelatin stars. I did a little riff on this Martha Stewart recipe that I found on Not Martha. They were quite tasty and refreshing, and I am not a fan of jell-o in general. I might like to try this with other fresh-squeezed juices. Lime might be yummy... (p.s. I didn't really follow the Martha recipe, though I'm sure it is good-- I basically halved the "Knox Blox" recipe on the Knox Gelatin box because I only had 2 cups of juice from my 3 grapefruits)

And now I am attempting to get back in the swing of things! I have, of course, many crafty ideas that need to evolve into actual things.

reading: between books! help!
coveting: lunch. i've waited too long and now I'm dithering about what to eat.
