9 mile run

Tonight I did a 9 mile run with my sister. Proud isn't enough of a word. I am stunned that I have gotten to this point.

9 and 3/4 kilometers of the run went to earning my Platform 9 3/4 medal for the Hogwarts Running Club. With that run I also officially earned the Marauders Challenge Medal.

Wedding Cross Stitch

I started this just after our wedding in 2010. 5 years later, it is done!!!! I used stitchyourphoto.com and I just can't believe it's finally finished.

Next step: framing it!!!

Training schedule

Made a training schedule and so far I've stuck with it!  I've also been hula hooping every day of 2016.

Today we stayed home and tried to make a teething toddler less miserable. I baked a few loaves of bread, watched the Democratic debate... weird, lazy, exhausting day.

Last day

Today I said goodbye to 6 of my clients. I did some sort of technique with a rock with everyone. This came from one of them.

Beautiful food

Made rosemary bread and vegan cashew "cheese" & had a delightful lunch with my sisters today between clients.

The cashew cheese was so gooood.
Soaked 1 cup of cashews overnight then put them in the food processor with nutritional yeast, lemon, vinegar, salt, farlic cloves, parsley and dill. Blended, and put in a cheesecloth in a bowl overnight. Turned out to be the consistency of spreadable cheese, like allouette or a cheese ball.
