Lazy..Again

Basketweave scarf. I'm in love with this brown. So yummy looking! I do apologize for not posting more these days.
I just really have been lazy. More so than usual, I finished a beautiful
pair of fingerless gloves I'll post soon as I get around to snapping a picture.
Much like the other projects I need to put up on here.
Hooky time is just far more appealing then snapping pictures.
I have new quilting clothe, it's so springy and happy.
I've already cut it up into a quilt, now it just needs the tender love
of a needle and thread.
My Kitten is intrigued by my hooking, she can't figured why
I'd want to hook instead of pet her, I mean..Really!
She also felt left out, because I had a cookie and coffee. Not pleased about
being left out, she sneaked a sip of my coffee. I reaaally don't think she enjoyed it.
Tehehe!
I'll be gone for four days, vacationing time with Thais for the new year.
Should be interesting! I'm sure to have plenty pictures when I return.
Until then, Happy New year

Christmas and carolers

Christmas has come and past.
It was fun and relaxing.
Weird to be warm instead of freezing.
Pancakes with cinnomon apples
Coffee and Eddie Izzard afterwards.
Carolers at 1 in the morning.
Lovely holiday

Monks,English, and long bus rides

Just a brief update.
Taught English camps over the weekend.
Plural..
No pictures I'm sorry, I forgot to take some. I had a lovely experience yesterday morning. It had nothing to do with teaching or anything. I had woken up early, around seven, for no real reason other than the need to crochet. So I snooped around our hotel area and found free coffee! The Thais all laughed and smiled when they realized I could speak Thai. But moving on, I found a little wooden table by a fish pond. Complete with little wooden benches, The sun had just come up and warmed the wood. I sat on down and crocheted. I couldn't've been happier:] I felt like a little solar panel soaking up energy from the sun

Quick Peak


Just a peak at one of my friend's gifts.
I was going to post this picture sooner.
But, I found out she reads my blog.
Good Thing I didn't!
Korat this weekend, don't really want to go. I have so much to work on, and per usual, I haven't done anything for two days. I'd love some inspiration, post what inspires you out of laziness in the comments!

Workouts,Sauce, and Patterns

Just a peak at someones gift..


Leftovers have become my favorite lunches.
Working out with the entire gym staff is..Intimidating
Untill they huff and puff like humans!
Then it becomes a joking and fun workout.
Followed my first pattern.
Terrifying!
Supposedly, following patterns is a safe way to create things. I found it scary after not following rules for so long. I was so scared to mess up at every step. And measuring?! Who does that?!
I made spaghetti sauce, delicious! Nothing beats a late dinner of a comfort food like spaghetti after a busy day. Fudge to top it off, did I mention my dad nearly bit me when I offered to take the fudge to my dearest Olivia's. He nearly pounced on me, claiming it'd be fine over the weekend while we're gone. I felt proud for making a dessert Daddy is possessive of.

Snowflake chili

A warm pot of chili was on the menu today.

My typical snack, delicious and nutritious!
Left over soup and crafty blogs makes for a cozy afternoon

Today was a productively lazy day. I'm not entirely sure how those go together, but they did.
We have a snowman despite the 60 degree weather we have. He's chilling on our door way, along with snowflakes. I'll show you them tomorrow, not to mention the large star leading the way to the stable in our living room. Hannah's present is very nearly done, I can't wait to show you her lovely gift after christmas!

Market and Crooks!

This morning has been very productive.
I woke up so very early and headed down to the market
Just to buy all sorts of food
to pop into a crock pot.
If you wish for the recipe, let me know.
These are the veggies in the pot
I was entirely to excited about the crust on this
Rainbow of veggies all waiting to jump in the pot
What's more beautiful then fresh veggies!

Christmas time


Home at last.
It's so nice to cozy up under a blanket
and resettle myself back in my little wooden room.
I love home.

Promised photos














Does my life consist of eating?
You could say that:D

Cappuchino with a side of Home.

I'll have pictures for you later.
Daddy and I went to Outback last night.
I felt like I had walked into the one back home.
I had Thunder from Down under.
It was delicious.


I haven't been up to a whole lot these past few days. Or I suppose, it's been one since I last post. Feels like a lot longer! I did run into a fan of my blog over lunch. It's always flattering to know someone actually reads my ramblings on life.
Don't forget to Christmas shop, after all it is just around the corner. I can't wait to show you the things I've made. I'm quite in love with a few of them. Wishing you frosty mornings and hot drinks.

Espresso Biscotti

Twinkling Christmas Trees.
Airport annoucments
Akon singing
and hot coffee.

This is what my morning consists of. Waiting patiently for Daddy to arrive in the KLIA airport. Because we are an international family. I switched my money from Rupia to Ringet, using the money in my wallet. Because, I am an international girl. The plane touched down and I switched my phone card from Indonesian to Thai. Because, I am an international traveler. I can say 'Thank you' in six different languages. Why? Because..I am an International Seventeen year old.

Last day in Indonesia


The last few days have been peaceful.
The little owl is part of a Christmas project.
I can't tell you what it is.
But it's going to be cute!
I've been sick with a fever.
Elsa's down with coughing.
and we've been so lazy.





Elsa and I have been extra lazy these past few days due to being sick. But that doesn't mean we've been totally useless. I've finished four Christmas projects! Which, I will show you after the Holidays. Just in case someone reads this blog and sneaks a peak!

Lazy Day with my Indonesian Family

Tea,coffee, and cookies.
Chocolates and sharing stiches.
Shaking head and laughing Kids.
Soft patter of rain and drying laundry.

All in all the day was lazy and slow. Just the kind I need after being so busy for two weeks.
Happy things: New blogs to follow.
Sad things: My trip is every coming closer to it's end.
Pet peeve of the day: Yarn that won't shape right,
Funny things: Little kids dancing
