So the last couple of days has been kind of running around.
On Saturday we planned out my Halloween steam punk costume and then went shopping for fabrics with a friend. It was hard but I did find a cool dark blue wool type fabric to make my vest out of. We ran around to a couple of places that day as well but in terms of creativity that was about it.
Sunday was a little more hectic and fresher in my memory so here goes. Talia went house shopping with a friend in the morning so i had free rain in the kitchen. Finally a chance to clean up a bit. I also did laundry and would have swept the floors but ran out of time. Talia came home with her friend around 1 and we all had lunch. A delicious scalloped potatoes made my Talia. Needed salt but other than that it was amazing.
Since we were unable to find any pant or shirt material at fabricland on saturday we decided to go down to fashion district and rummage around there. Talias friend also wanted to go and visit a game store she on bloor and yonge so she came along for the ride.
We did find a very cool fabric for my pants. Gray with black stripes, just what I was looking for. and then it was a run over to yonge street and a walk up so we could visit all the used book stores there :)
It was at our 3nd bookstore where I found a jamie oliver cookbook. I have looked all over the place for them for a price I could afford and I have never been able to find it. So after some humming and ha-ing Talia convinced me to get the book. While paying for the book I started chatting with the cashier and he mentioned that they had a whole bunch of books by jamie oliver at their other store which wasnt too far away. So off we went. Finally found a book I liked and yeah i now have 2 Jamie Oliver cook books.
I had planned to make pizza for dinner tonight but we have been out of anything I could use for pizza sauce for a couple of weeks now, so while we were down there we went to a grocery store (across the street from the BMV where I got then 2nd book) and headed home.
Talia also wanted to make cupcakes which takes a lot of soy milk and we were almost out of it so we had to make a detour over to the no frills where soy milk is a reasonable price (unlike the metro around the corner from our place). So we grabbed some milk and grapes and started home.
Talia wanted to also make some cauliflower and broccoli casserole so we started cooking. I made the pizza dough and she started cutting up the veg for her casserole. Unfortunately I found out too late that we had to aluminum foil to cook the pizza on. Talia said she would go grab some from the metro while I finished making the dough.
Flash back to earlier in the week. We had gone shopping at the fresh Co earlier and I had seen scotch bonnet peppers on sale. I had never had them but I have been told they are really good. So i grabbed 3 of them and they had been sitting in our fridge since them.
With the dough done and Talia still out getting alluminum foil I decided to start curring up the veg. Including the scotch bonnets cause hey, I love spice onmy pizzas.... OMG F*%C you scotch bonnet steve!!!! those things are murder.
I wont go into detail cause I'm exhausted right now, but Talia got pepper juice up her nose and I got it in my eye. MY EYE!!!!!!!!
