Success! According to Wikipedia, a Cornish Game hen is really just a young chicken. I had no recipe, I just "winged" it (haha, get it?). Excuse the cell phone pic, the skin was a nice, tan/brown not orange. My chicken needs some sunscreen.

Covet: Pretty things
The office/closet space is still not done yet. It was the first apartment project I thought about when we moved in, but it's kind of fallen to the wayside. I tried to pick it up last night by making R hang stuff, but it just left a big mess in the middle of my living room. So sad. I wish I had pictures to show for it. In terms of knick-knacks and organizational options, this little space is where I've spent the most time and effort. Gah! Anyway, because the lack of pretty pictures is depressing me, so here's a bunch of things I want now.
I want this chair. I have nowhere to put it and pretty sure R will kill me, but I want it.
Why didn't they have these shoes around for my wedding?
I want this closet. Maybe the clothes too.
And finally, this rug. R doesn't want any more "flowery things" in our living room. Psf!

More cupcakes!
More to add to the cupcake series.

Cinnabon (Yeah, the one that sells the rolls at the mall) - chocolate something

Covet: Still looking for art prints...
My friend J borrowed my camera, so I won't have any new pics up any time soon. He's a busy body and I probably wont see him until my best friend comes back. Darn, I wanted to try out a new raisin bun recipe today.
My kitchen walls are still kind of bare. I'm experimenting with some of the 5 million pieces of scrapbook paper I still have left from the wedding, but nothing fruitful yet. I bought a Keep Calm and Carry On poster from TJ Maxx, but I think I changed my mind. Yay for 30-day return policies! Here's what's on my radar now:

Framboise & Royal Milk Tea KitKats!
I liked the milk tea one better than the framboise. According to wikipedia, framboise "is (French for raspberry) is a Belgian beer." Doesn't that picture not look like beer? It looks like strawberry cake to me, at least that's what I thought before I wikipedia-ed it.

When I was a Geisha he was a Samurai. Somehow I understood him when he spoke Thai
Damn song was stuck in my head. It gets me agitated, I mean WTF? Samurai? Speaking Thai?
I thought I uploaded some pictures last night, but I guess I didn't. Grrrr...
I'm a little sunburnt and summer school's kicking my ass. I'm in a little funk right now, hence the lackluster posts. Anyway, here's what I'm just looking at right now.

1st Anniversary
Yeah, it came and went. We had exciting plans and they all got canceled. Things came up and I got sick. But it really wasn't that bad. I know I make R to be whiny and all, but he was really awesome (forgiving?) about spending 72 hours straight with me. Even when I was not feeling well and threatened (only jokingly!) him.
So in the off chance, he's reading this: Happy 1st!

Covet: Caffeine Fiend
I've been looking for a french press or small coffeemaker for a couple of months now. Sorry, the Hello Kitty one's just not cutting it. And my little Vietnamese press isn't cute or gadgety enough. Nothing's quite caught my eye yet.
Here's what I have now:
Here's a few I've been looking at:
