Last Friday I cooked a pumpkin for the very first time. It was an experience. Definitely fun, but took up more time than I was expecting.
Here is a picture of all the seeds that I got from the pumpkin! I cooked them up and used a recipe for the spices. They were yummy but next time I'll try a different recipe.
The pumpkin baking. It smelled soooo good.
Made lots of pumpkin things. :) This is pumpkin oatmeal. Mmm. Also made cookies, and pasta..
Tissue paper poofs that I spent last weekend making for my classroom. They are now hanging from the ceiling and look pretty darn cool. If I do say so myself...
The big bulletin board that I re-did. The keyboard and blue paper were there, and I re-did the stuff around it. Before this, it was a sea theme.
Close up of the big owl. :) I made this guy from butcher paper. (And you better believe he will make it to my real classroom someday!)
Close up of the tree. I printed little owls and stuck them in the tree. I thought about leaves, but I kind of like it the way it is.
So that's that! I wanted to put a picture of the football hat I crocheted for Ben for his 1 year bday but blogger is being weird now so oh well.
At least you got to see all the rest of the goodness..;)
I wish I had more time these days.... I feel like I do so much. It gets frustrating being busy every evening! I know it's my choice but still... This is my first free evening this week.
Today at school the PTO made us a soup and casserole lunch. It was delicious and the perfect day for it. It's been rainy here today.
I'm going home this weekend and I'm pretty stoked.
I don't know quite how long it has been...but I want to say it was September the last time I was home... and whenever the last time was I think I stayed for like...a day. So...I'm glad to go home and relax.
More updates at a later time. :)
