My poor neglected blog

I have been sadly neglecting this thing for the past couple of months. I've been pretty busy, I do have to say.

What has happened since the last post? Christmas came and went, Term 1 ended, Term 2 is well underway. Halfway through, actually! I did really well in Term 1, with a nice 94% GPA! Yay! I worked really hard, and I really enjoy what I'm doing. So all that put together is good, I suppose!

What else? I'm feeling a lot better these days, but mainly because I think I have begun a gluten-,sugar-,wheat-, corn- and yeast-free diet! I was really strict about it for about 3 weeks, and now I've become a bit more lax, including some honey, maple syrup on apple juice sweetened, gluten-free waffles! Lots of fruit, too! And lately I've been reintroducing some yeast to see how I feel, too.

Anyways, since the onset of this new diet, I've been making a LOT more foods. So I will be posting some recipes soon. I've just been BUSY! Term 2 is taking up the majority of my time!

Also, my 25th birthday is in less than two weeks, and I'm actually really excited about it! For those who know me, I've always complained a lot about being "so old" when my birthday comes around. But I think because I am doing something that I really enjoy that will, in about 8 months, turn into a career, I feel my age and I feel good about it.

Another thing I would like to mention is that, as my web design skills develop and grow, I will be making a food and recipe website called phenemeNOMS! Down the line, as my photography skills develop, I would also like to start a small card business... I sort of used my family as guinea pigs this past Christmas, and made them each cards, using photography of my own. I used really nice recycled, grainy card stock, special double-sided photo tape, and just printed 6x4 photos at London Drugs. They came out really nicely!

Anyway, I must now end this post because again, as always, I have homework that I should be doing!
