It won't be long before we get home.


This looks delicious! It's called Lavendar Lemon Soda. And you can bet I'm going to be making it sometime soon to try.
How to make Lavender Lemon Soda:

1 C. water
1 C. sugar
2 T. fresh lavender florets (Hidcote variety recommended)
1 C. fresh squeezed lemon juice
Seltzer water
Ice

In a small saucepan, combine water, Splenda, and lavender. Bring to a simmer over gentle heat. Remove from stove and let steep for 5-10 minutes. Strain and chill until ready to use.

To make the soda, combine a ¼ cup of lavender syrup with a ¼ cup lemon juice over ice in a pint glass. Fill the glass with seltzer water and serve immediately.

(serves 4)



On to more important subjects. The boyfriend and me broke up. I'm going to Missouri sometime by March. I might be leaving tomorrow. I might be waiting a month, I don't know. I really hope I wait a month. Because I already made so many plans for February and I don't want to cancel them. I made half of the plans back in October. No way I can just cancel them now. I've been looking forward to these.
Plus I'm seeing Rent on Sunday! I can't miss that!
Also, I wish I was artistic. Even in the slightest bit. By that I mean I wish I could paint. I'm tempted to just get some paper and paint and just try. Why not? I have the time. I'm going to do it. And maybe try doing other little artsy projects. I just want to go to the art store. Maybe I'll do that.
I also want a penpal. Someone I can send things too. And write letters too.
Anyways, that's it.

that sux. but youre lucky you got to be with him the time you were.

It'd be annoying to not know what you're gonna be doing.

I've always wanted to do that, get paper and just paint. But that white pares scary, it's so perfect and blank, lol.

Having a penpal would be heaps awesome. no one writes letters anymore :( lol
