Hello Again.


Sorry, I haven’t posted in a while I really don’t have an excuse or a reason for that matter. I just really haven’t been feeling up to it or creative enough to do it.

Um, this week I have been preparing for the St. Joseph alter. It is a Catholic Italian- American tradition that my area celebrates. Basically, a group of families prepare a shit load of cookies and pastries to give out on St. Joseph Day, witch is this Friday. And there will be a Red Sauce (because actually giving it a name would be incorrect, because I’m not really sure what it is called, and saying marinara isn’t correct.) That will be served over spaghetti. The sauce has an unusual ingredient eggs. Yes, that’s right. Because it is lent you can’t have a meat sauce because it is a time of fasting (er, well that isn’t exactly true, because St. Joseph’s Day is a feast day, which trumps the Lent card so you can actually just party like to tomorrow, and other people do, but the Italian celebration is for giving thanks to St. Joseph because he was able to save the people from Sicily from the terrible drought they had many years ago). So, the protein used is always eggs (for this holiday).

Anyway, my hands are a pretty shade of purple and that is always fun. And I’ve painted more cookies than I would like…

Oh, I got a new toy, it is called, Snappy. Everyone say hello to Snappy!

Snappy, is a Cannon AE-1 camera. He takes lovely pictures of trees, people, and other artsy things. I’ll put up some pictures here as soon as I can. ^-^ That is if they look pretty. Hopes she used Snappy correctly.

Oh, I have a great story about my first role of film. I totally ruined it. I took a whole bunch of pictures and when I finished the role I went to roll the film in the canister… yeah I broke that roll, because I had no idea what I was doing. I knew that it shouldn’t have been making the, “No, I don’t want to go back into the film canister” noise, but I pushed it anyway. And I tore the film and it was all ended up getting exposed. It wasn’t my shinning moment in photography. Anyway, I hope my second set came out well and ok.

Well, that’s all that is new for now, and again sorry I’ve been out for away. I’ll get to all of your sites today. ^-^
