Strawberry Pops~

So! My mother and I recently took a shopping trip. We visited Williams-Sonoma, which is a food/cooking/baking/tea/coffee-making supply store located in Jefferson Pointe, in Ft. Wayne, IN. There we bought a strawberry ice pop mold and a strawberry huller! So I decided to try them out today. Here's how it went. :3

The box, which has instructions and a recipe on the back. :3

The mold itself. How cute! x3

Here's the strawberry huller. :3

Looks like a real strawberry! xD

First thing's first: Choose a strawberry! This one looks tasty. I3

Here's a short video on how to use it. :3

Ingredients: 2c strawberries, 3/4c water, 3Tb sugar. Then just blend it up and.....

...pour it in!! There was some left over, so I drank it. So super tasty! x3

Then I just put it in the freezer to cool overnight! Can't wait to eat them tomorrow. :3

Updaters!

I had some piccies laying around on my camera, so I though I would do a quick update. :3

I made some fruit-jellie-candy. :3

"I bought some Shoonie food."

"Do you think it will last?"
"Eh. At least for the week."

And for some reason, I drew Maimi. xD I think this an outfit she wears in the ABC tour? Maybe?

Hello Kitty dress up doll eraser! 8D

And then I came home one day to find this. @.@
It's the 2010 JUMP concert~ x3

But really, I should be studying for my killer finals tomorrow. Oh well.

Flan~

Today I made flan! It was quite tasty~

Caramel is in the bowl and ready to go~ x3

Cooking the filling~ Steam is so pretty. :3

In the fridge to chill for two hours or so and then nummy time~! X3

So, on Tuesday there was a terrible storm during Calculus. (How ironic, I know xD) There was a tornado warning in our area -which just so happens to be out in the country with absolutely NOTHING surrounding it- so our principal made us go hide in a tiny room. The picture below is in this tiny room. xD
Haleyness and Ryan were across from me. They look farther away in the picce than they actually were. xD So close that Ryan could grab my hands and say, "We're all gonna DIE. O.O" without either of us moving. xD Varnessa was to my left and Matt to my right, and that's Cierra-werra's shoulder in the piccie next to Haleyness. :3 We were in there for almost the whole class period, which is an hour. So, yay for no Calc homework! x3

I be off to go Simming, since I got the newest one yesterday. x3

Do you know what Mayu-chan should be doing~?

If you said studying for that killer Calculus quiz tomorrow, sleeping, or watching Monty Python, then you are correct! xD

Anyway, it was recently my friend, Haleyness's birthday, and our Calculus teacher, Tree happens to be a balloon-artist. Or whatever you call them. xD And Tree just so happens to make a balloon for you if it's your birthday (though she forgot me last year D:). And so, Haleyness got this awesome balloon hat:

Cho kawaii~~~~ Haleyness-chan. :3

Onto the next piccie~~~

Last week or so, when we were studying Les Miserables in Fine Arts, which just so happens to be French~~, MF let us bring in French-like pastries while we watched the musical version (which was pretty freaking sweet, btw). Sooooo Varnessa's madre, being an excellent food-maker, made pastries BY HAND for the ENTIRE CLASS. Yes. Homemade pastries. Of delicious quality, might I add. Here's a piccie:

(I had already taken a bite, my bad xD) This particular pastry was cream cheese filling. Nummy~ :3

Today, feeling like I would cook a tasty meal for myself since my parents were absent, I approached the cookbook cabinet and retrieved the Asian stir-fry recipe book because I felt like cooking with the wok. xD I soon found a recipe for which I did not have to go to Meijer's to get ingredients, and got to work cooking. However, whilst cooking, I tasted my creation to maker sure it was how I wanted. Being just a tad salty, I took a drink of Minnetrista apple cider to wash it down and-- IDEA!!! The flavors so incredibly well, I poured some apple cider into the wok and a beautiful cloud of steam wafted into the air. I served myself some of my creation with a side of apple sauce and a glass of apple cider. (No, I am NOT obsessed with apples. Even though I have one for lunch everyday.) I took a bite, and PERFECTION! I have never tasted something that I created with my own hands as tasty as this was. I decided I needed to name my creation, so Apple Cider Stir-Fry is in the piccie below:

Other ingredients of the recipe were: Rice noodles, onions, peppers, garlic, egg, soy sauce, and a pinch of sugar. Try it some time~~~

Now, for those who don't read kanji, the below picture may make no sense whatsoever.

For those who read kanji but don't follow a certain Heisei era JE group, it may be confusing to why I have the kanji for 'shining' written on my water bottle.

For those who follow HSJ with a passion, like myself, may possibly be dying of laughter reminiscing on Hikaru....

.... claiming to be water. Which is just what I named my water bottle. Hikaru. Yes. Win.

My Anatomy notebook was increasingly getting thinner, so I made a brand new one~ :3

(Top: Takaki Yuya, Bottom: Ya-Ya-ya -from left to right: Taiyo, Shoon, Yabu, Hikaru)

......aaaaaaaaand I've started a new project. This be the cover (of which one of the doilies Shoonie Bu had a dispute with and won):

It is my Arashi notebook, which I will fill with various and vital Arashi info, statistics, discography, and more, and attempt to memorize. Because I obviously have not enough to do between six classes a day, cotillion, violin, volunteering, and oh yeah, let's not forget college and scholarships.

Anyways. It's nearly one and I've REALLY got to do some more studying of Calculus to ensure that I WON'T fail that test tomorrow. Oh joy.

~Peace~
