carpie diem

Purim is right around the corner so ive been busy doing something i dont usually do...baking..hamanashen in honor of our upcoming holiday..and i even strayed from the traditional recipe opting for the usage of nuts and raisons (really good btw!) yet everyone around me and even those oceans apart were outraged at my deviance how cud i mess with the taditional hamantashen in which u have two choices some sort of jam filling or chocolate anything besides that is considered heresy! but seriously i did not expect such an averse reaction to it..anyways to make everyone happy i made the ones i wanted abt 4 dozen cherry ones and some chocoalte for my bro..everyone got something (i quadruapled the recipe!) the other part of my baking evening was playing with my mothers challah dough that had refused to rise - so she had 5lbs of doiugh lying around not doing anything so i started flattening it out making flat bread that i wud imyh later deep fry mkaing pita chips..i made some nut/'raison rol

marta day

So I'm really late posting for the simple reason that there was no internet at work.. The comp had gotten a virus and I brought my lap top to try to maybe get wifi from the bagel place nxt door but alas there was none so I'm reporting live ( the beg part anyway) from the Marta train headed to gsu..I was debating what I shud write about but I had two amazing flashes so far today that I just had to share!!

(inflammation of the bronchioles.) and one other minor detail..i got another haircut! i know right its short, really short , shorter than last time and let me tell you its taking getting used to but it def takes lets time to do which is nice. and as im reminiscing my hair cut i just remembered something else that happened.yay! more material to work with.. yesterday i went to get my brakes checked cuz the lights been flashing and its an oldish car so though i really wasn't in the mood had tonz of studying to do i went i get there and the mechanic takes a look at my brakes and then proceeds to tell me that the front breaks have abt ten percent left on them and are complete;y dangerous to be driving around with, the back breaks are
