forestofgloryI haven't been posting much hear beyond the occasional short fiction recs. I'd like to get back to posting more. I've gotten into a bit a a perfectionist stint not wanting to post thing just thrown together and feeling extra self-conscious about making spelling mistakes in public. (I have learning disability so I make lots of spelling mistakes -- thank goodness for spellcheck.) So to help with all that I'm starting a new weekly project: Eating, Reading, Making. For this project I'll post a bit about what I've been eating, reading and making during the last week. Some weeks I might write a couple of paragraphs, some weeks just a couple of words. We'll see how it goes.
Eating: Its the time of year I switch form eating cold cereal to oatmeal in the mornings. I eat cold cereal while good fresh fruit is available then oatmeal with golden raisins during the colder months.
Reading: The Cooking Gene by Michael W. Twitty -- this deeply personal history of southern food is really good. Its pretty dark in places because a lot of the history of southern food is also the history of slavery.
Making: I've been making a Halloween costume for my kid. Its a Robot. I am using this dress pattern as base and a making the panels different grays and I've sewn on some solid colored squares to look like buttons. I think it will be cute.
What have you been eating, reading or making recently?
