Why I Should Not Host Dinner Parties

I haven't posted in a while. And that's because, well, mainly because it's the end of the quarter and I'm getting married in, like, 20 days. Yeah, we thought doing this all at one time was a good idea because...

At any rate, I'm almost (finally) done with my first quarter of graduate school. And quite frankly, that's a little scary, because I'm not sure where it went. I feel like the last few months have flown by, I'm going home again in less then a week, and I'm just not sure I've accomplished quiet as much as I would like. But, I'm chalking that up to it just being a new experience, and the fact that I have all of this extra wedding stuff to do. So I've decided I'll just be better at life starting next quarter.

In other news, we had a dinner party tonight. Sort of a Christmas/end of the quarter celebration with friends from school. On our menu was cheesy potato soup, salad, and a chicken and pasta dish tossed in a white wine sauce. Sound too good to be true? That's because it is. Apparently, I got all of these kitchen gadgets and recipes for my wedding showers, and thought that that magically changed the fact that I can't cook. Hopefully, this fact will change soon (I'm trying!) but I think we learned never to try new recipes when you're having people over. We definitely ended up having to order pizza. So yeah....

Well I guess that's it for now. Like I said, I'm going home in a few days, and I highly doubt I'll have time to write on here during that time. So next time I talk to you all it will probably be a new year and I will be a married woman. How scary is that!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!
