1.) Sing Karaoke in Vegas
Done and Done! And without the help of alcohol I might add:)
2.) make a romantic meal with Jesse from scratch
not so much.....maybe Jesse and I need to spend more time together in the kitchen this year:)
3.) finish 12 books
Easy Peasy! Here's what I read:
My Sister’s Keeper
Twenties Girl
Her Fearful Symmetry
Still Alice
Yes, My darling Daughter
The Story of Edgar Sawtelle
Loving Frank
Girl with a Pearl Earring
The Poisonwood Bible
Vanishing Acts
The Slap
Reading Lolita in Tehran
River of the Broken hearted
Mockinjay
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Sarah’s Key
Snow Flower and the Secret Fan
I'm going to up the anty next year
4.) Bake something new each month:
carrot cake
cinnamon rolls
squash muffins
black and white muffins
Not a favourite for me or Jesse:(
zucchini/chocolate chip muffins
peanut butter cookies
pumpkin chai loaf
chocolate/peanut butter brownies
caramel filled chocolate cookies
These are delicious!
So 9/12 isn't so bad, but with my new kitchenaid mixer that I got for Christmas I'll have better luck next year!
5.) Eat carrots grown from my own garden
I had high hopes for my garden this year. We even planted these chrysanthemums in the hopes that they would scare away any pests, but alas my first garden did not succeed. Next year I resolve not to neglect it!
6.) Make applesauce from the apples on our tree
Success! Althouth it tastes a lot more like apple pie filling than applesauce...oh well....still delicious!
7.) Make my own pickles
these were a blast! Thanks Amie for all your help! Next year we'll use smaller pickles so we can get more than 4 in a jar:)
8.) Teach Attaboy to "roll over"
we didn't succeed.....most of our training sessions turned into cuddle sessions, but I'm not complaining:) Maybe next year
9.) Sell a homemade card at a farmer's market
The farmer's markets were a blast this year and I did manage to sell a few cards! Amie's mother-in-law was my first customer:) We will definetly do it again this year:)
10.) Lose 10 pounds.
