Softened, maybe wedding photo setting:
Vintagey, possibly from an indie band's cd sleeve:

Not being very productive
Sunset from this past Friday:
Also I'm starting to listen to Wilco.
Applying to grad school is hard.

Ridiculously easy bruschetta recipe
Now that it's after comp, I am on a plan to eat healthier and exercise more. One of the things that I've recently gotten addicted to is bruschetta, mostly because it's delicious and super easy. Of course, it would probably be more delicious if I put more effort into it, but I'm pretty lazy so I'll settle.
Ingredients:
Tomato(es)
Fresh basil
Mozzarella
Bread
I use potato bread because it's cheap and yummy, but I suppose it could be done with some fancy-schmancy baguette slices.
Steps:
1. Slice mozzarella, chop basil, and dice tomato.
2. Toast bread.
3. Cut toasted bread slices in half.
4. Add other ingredients on top.
Tasty! Ok I may have overdone it slightly on the basil, but it wasn't exactly high-quality so the flavor wasn't overwhelming. Next time I'll try adding some balsamic vinaigrette on top to see what that tastes like.
Also, here is a random bowl of cherries from home.

Dress Project Post #1
Here are the beginnings of the dress I'm making to wear to my cousin's wedding...
I have to go back to Jo-Ann to get more fabric for the top part. Here's a closeup of the pattern for the skirt part:
After cutting and pinning it, I realized that it may be a bit too busy from a distance, but that will hopefully be balanced out by the hems and the band around the waist (both will be solid navy blue). I was originally thinking about polka dots for the top, but now I think that might be an overload. So I might just make the top white.
And if all else fails, I'll just make a quick run to H&M and buy something.
