...make pancakes!I love food. Particularly breakfast food. Now that I've been gluten-free for a year now (!) I can only indulge in pancakes at home, when they're made from non-wheat flours. So when a girl is in need of a little comfort food, what could make one feel better than chocolate chip pancakes?! Delicious. Why comfort food you ask?? Well, to begin with, keep reading below!
Yes, I am in a new house. Some say its because the house owners were foreclosed upon. Others speculate that our house was being taken over by giant flies, fleas, and cockroaches. (Seriously though, can you believe the size of this fly!? It must have been sleeping, because I was close to touching him and he didn't buzz off!)It actually isn't a house, its an apartment. My household of 7 people is now going
to be an apartment of 2. Which is a slightly odd but welcome change, I think. In the past months my housemates and I have sought to buy something, but that's not working out at the moment. And when we began looking for a rental to hold the 9 of us (we're growing) it was very clear we weren't going to find such a place within the mile of our house that we were looking. So for the time being we're segmenting into 3 households (while continuing to pursue our idea of "intentional community"). We'll begin looking to buy again in the new year.On other news fronts, I made my first TV filming! It will probably be Februrary when it airs though. It was tons of fun and they loved me! They found my GreaseGirl blog and wanted me to teach a lady how to do some basic car maintenance stuff - like change a tire. We used Studebaker during filming, which makes me very proud. However, when we took her tire off I noticed the inner rim had worn all the way down to the wiry part! No bueno (I'm also attending a spanish class at community college this sememster)! I had sworn to get this checked out first thing the next day - but on my way home from spanish class later that night, a tire blew! Everything was okay. But as I waited for the tow truck on the embankment where the 101 & 110 freeways meet, watching my Stude on a very narrow pull-out, I couldn't help but laugh.
For now, I'm safe and sound. But its good to know that chocolate chip pancakes are always a possibility...
