*Headdesk*

As you all can tell, that plan to post something "in the near future" went very well, eh? I've been pretty busy with spring semester classes and also haven't been able to think of anything tasty (and practical) to make in a college dorm kitchen.

Any suggestions?

Furthermore, I miss my birds terribly. It was great getting to see and play with them for an entire month! Their personalities are basically unchanged: Bacci is still a glutton for food, and Ciri continues to harbor a great distain for humans. Gotta love them though. Oh! I completely forgot to clip Bacci's near dragon-like nails while I was home, so I MUST remember to do so when I go back for spring break! 

It's Been Awhile

Wow.  Nearly two months have gone by since I've posted anything.  I still cook regularly here at college - mostly tasty, but generally not picture worthy.  Perhaps in a day or two once I'm home I'll cook up something and put it up on the blog.

Moved In

*big sigh of relief*   I'm finally done moving into my dorm!  My roommate's pretty nice, and we get along well, so there really isn't much else to worry about aside from doing well in (and actually finding) my classes.  I had originally planned on doing some cooking - maybe once or twice a week - but after seeing the kitchen... HECK NO!  I'll don't have a picture, but it's well... interesting.  I can deal with old/outdated and somewhat malfunctioning equipment, but I do need some space.  So it goes without saying - I'll be doing a bunch of cooking from my microwave.

Giveaway over at....

Just entered a FiberOne giveaway over at "Get Lucky."


EDIT (8/15/11): I ended up winning the giveaway, which not that many people entered.  Anyhow, I got my prize package in the mail a little under a week ago.  The pedometer is pretty cool, as is the iPod/iPhone arm band holder-thing.  The cereal however, was.... "eh" :\

T-shirt Quilt

Okay, I realize that this has absolutely nothing to do with birds, the kitchen, or birds being in a kitchen, but...

I've been working on a t-shirt quilt for about 4 months now - well, most of that time has been spent sorting through my old shirts (and a few "donated" by friends).  As of now, I have 60-something 6" x 6" squares cut, and am in the process of piecing them together, into rows of 11 squares (working on the 3rd row at the moment).

I'm thinking that the finished product will be somewhere between a full-size and queen-size quilt. So... Most likely 15 - 18 rows of 11 squares?  As much as I'd like to at least piece the blocks together before I head off for college, in reality, it'll definitely take at least until the end of the year (if not around this time next year).

Anyhow, here is a picture (taken quite a while ago) of the topmost row of t-shirt blocks (pieced together).

**Also, if anyone has any ideas of where I can get *extremely* affordable t-shirts, please let me know.

Solution... Well, Sort of...

Definitely not using Notes to publish new blog posts.  Period.  

I'm trying out an app called "RSS for Pages," which works decently.  The only gripe I have with this app is that while my posts do show up in proper form, they get sorted into a separate tab under the page's profile picture.  I need to click on said tab, and "publish" each post individually to the wall.  

Ideally, I would like something that does just directly posts blog updates onto the Facebook wall, as opposed to me doing this manually.  

Oh well, it's good enough for now.

Any Advice?

Attempting (for quite a while now) to "sync" my posts here to the page that I created on Facebook using the Notes app.  Now, after I paste in the URL for the RSS feed, I get a preview of what everything will look like.  This post aside, I only have 5 posts on this blog so far.  The two most recent ones show up perfectly fine in the preview.

However, the last three (a.k.a. the first three posts made on this blog) look kind of... funky.  The images for them show up; but instead of the text being displayed like it is in the preview of the two most recent posts, all I get is a bunch of broken coding...

Doe anyone have ideas on how to fix this?  Or possibly another method of publishing new blog posts to the page's wall?
