decorator

I took another class at Penn Highlands, this one a cake decorating class. I found it to be pretty informative and definitely worthwhile. We learned how to ice a cake, do different types of piping, and make roses. Plus, we got to eat the results!

In other decorating news, I rearranged the living room yesterday. I like the new look. Not sure if it’s because it’s different or better, but I think it’s actually better. I still have some artwork to move around, but that will be easy enough to remedy as soon as I have 5 spare minutes.

motorcycles

no sale

Well, my motorcycle didn’t sell, so I put it away for another winter. I didn’t even ride this summer. Not once. I didn’t miss it, either. I will likely put the bike up again next spring, but I reserve the right to change my mind. But, without my riding buddy (Lizzy), it seems unlikely.

movies

lucky

This was an interesting enough character study about a 90 year old man who is living out his last days in the desert. While I did not find it particularly funny, it fell under the dramedy category.

My rating: 3/5

pets

pet first aid

Brian and I took a series of pet first aid classes at Penn Highlands, the last of which was last night. We found it pretty informative, but due to having 6 dogs over the past 22 years, we have already lived through quite a number of pet emergencies. Still, I thought the class was worthwhile and would definitely consider taking more classes there in the future.

movies

won’t you be my neighbor?

The three of us are obsessed with Mr. Rogers for some reason, so we watched this documentary last night. It was pretty interesting and we all enjoyed it. Unlike Brian and me, Jake did not grow up watching Mr. Rogers. But he has somehow been exposed to him recently and now wants me to knit him all of the cardigans.

My rating: 4/5
