These days I find myself improvising recipes more and more. Not because of a lack of planning, but because sometimes when I am hungry and ready to eat, I don’t even want to be bothered with following a recipe. As a result, I wind up shopping for some recipe I found, and cooking something altogether… Continue reading Mamma Jamma Pizza

BBA Challenge: Light Wheat Bread
When I decided to start putting together this bread, it would not have been out of line to question my priorities. Let’s just say that there were a number of other things that need to be done. But, I have been on a bit of a roll with the BBA Challenge as of late and… Continue reading BBA Challenge: Light Wheat Bread
Goal 28: Make Some Changes to My Website
When I put up a website a while ago, I didn’t have a clear vision of what I wanted it to be. I knew that I was going to start a blog, but knowing myself, I was pretty sure that I would not want to lock the sherlonya.net to a specific blog. I love having… Continue reading Goal 28: Make Some Changes to My Website

Goal 18: Make a largish piece of art for my apartment
I moved into the apartment where I live a couple years ago. I’ve had such grand ideas for decorating the joint, but haven’t exactly made that the priority. However, here and there, I make little things to make the living space our own. One of my goals this year was to make a largish piece… Continue reading Goal 18: Make a largish piece of art for my apartment
Goal 4: Finish a Marathon
I did it! Usually, as some weird function of my personality when I accomplish a goal of some sort, I day or think something to diminish that goal. Today was not that day. I set the goal of finishing a marathon last year, but did not make that happen. This year, I set the goal… Continue reading Goal 4: Finish a Marathon
