Busy Day

Well today I was planning on cleaning the house today and cleaning up my room and stuff,
do some workbook thing or what-not, and do some arts and crafts. But instead, I ended up being glued on the computer for the whole day. From 8 to 3 I've been watching episode after episode of youtube videos, and if you think that wasn't enough, i think i want to go watch some more right now. Uhg, I need to get rid of this addiction before school starts.
Anyways, here's a question for all of you to answer: What has been your most prized memory?
It's just a random question to -well seriously, it's just a random question so...yeah.
Well, that's all for now!

Smile~!

Suggestions

Do you have any suggestions to what I should bake next?  I might not have time to do all of them but I'll do my best.

Hi guys!

Hey everyone!
Sorry but I haven't been on the blog for a while....
Anyways, I've been looking at all the great stuff you guys posted, but I got too lazy after about 5 posts, so sorry!
New topic, MOVIES! There are a lot of new movies coming out today!
You have your Conan: The Barbarian (rated R), and I'm sure there's a lot of fighting in it...(cough cough)
Also, you have Amigo, which i have no idea what it's about (also rated R).
Anyways, PG movies!
We have Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World, with original Spy Kids, Junie and Carmen! (rated PG)
And finally, I'm going to mention Glee: the 3D Concert Movie, and I'm pretty sure that there is some singing in it... (rated PG)

Well, that raps up my movie-review, which is the first I've done...
Comment on it, thanks!
P.S. I personally think that it's really weird.

Smile!

Random Outings

I want to share some pics from my recent Sunday outings:

1) Big Basin State Beach

Silly Question:

Why are there so many para-sailors and windsurfers on this beach?

Obvious Answer:

Because it is very very very very WINDY!!!!!

2) Pigeon Point Light House

Random Question:

Why is this light house not in use anymore?

Smart Answer:

Because ships are now using GPS.

3) China Camp State Park

Sad Question:

Why is this State Park Closing?

Sadder Answer:

Because our state budget is running out of funds to keep it open.

Pretzels

Hey!  I went to a summer camp and got this pretzel recipe.  Hope you enjoy!

Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups warm water (105-115 degrees)
                     2 packages active dry yeast
                     1 1/2 tsp. salt
                     1/4 cup vegetable oil
                     4- 4 1/2 cups all purpose flour
                     1 egg white
                     1Tbsp. cold water
 Directions: Put the warm water into a large bowl and sprinkle in yeast.  Stir until dissolved.  Add sugar, salt, oil, and 3 cups flour.  Gradually add the rest of the flour to make a soft dough.  Knead dough by hand for 10 minutes until it is smooth and feels elastic.  Cover  bowl with a dry cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.  Divide dough into 24 pieces and let it rest for 5 minutes.  To make a pretzel shape, form it into a long rope, bring the ends upward, twist the ends together once, and pressing them on the bottom curve.  Place on baking sheets.  Beat egg white and cold water together and brush the mixture on the pretzels and sprinkle on cinnamon and sugar.  Bake in 425 degree oven for 12-15 minutes.  Remove from baking sheets to wire rack to cool.  Enjoy!
Note: If you want salt on the pretzels, sprinkle on kosher salt instead of cinnamon.
