I just went outside and it was raining. Hard. Real rain. Not those drops that come down every 10 seconds that hit you on the top of the head, shockingly cold, and drip down your scalp. Real movie style rain. I can see one street lamp from my otherwise dark street and I love how rain looks in the old school amber street lights. It's looks like a romantic movie scene and I LOVE IT. It is also a warmer night so it makes the rain smell amazing. There are no weird smells that rain usually brings up in a city. It just smells like spring. With no sunlight, in the middle of the night and there are no cars or trains or planes to disrupt. I LOVE IT. (My camera has no charge and I don't want to go back outside so I will try again tomorrow night).
Tomorrow is grocery shopping on a serious budget. My neighbor just told me there are some good deals going on at Smiths, hopefully in the cheese and dairy section because I'm planning on making some brownies with cream cheese frosting. Oh and I made banana bread yesterday (my baking nemesis) and it turned out awesome. I always had a problem with banana bread because mine turns out too dense, too dry and all around not very awesome. That is behind me. I have finally done it!
I spent a good hour or so yesterday shopping online for kitchen gadgets (and essentials). This came up because I really want to make sourdough bread including making my own starter but the bread making community highly discredits using metal bowls. Which, sadly, is all I have. So I checked out some glass and ceramics bowls and stumbled across something super awesome. A ROBOT COOKIE JAR.
Feast your eyes:
