Summer Update

I haven't done an update in a while, but I think it's due time. As you probably know, I've been doing The Goth Challenge this month. As much as doing The Goth Challenge is a good way of allowing my readers to see a bit about my interests and personal experiences, It's taking so long to get finished! Once I'm done with the challenge, I'd like to do some more Paranormal related posts. There's just so much to do with that field that I can blog about. I also have about two more DIY posts that you will be seeing soon. As school is starting in August, I might not have as much time to devote to blogging. With that, I'm going to try to get some good posts in between now and then.

In other news, I'd also like to start YouTubing. I might do some make-up tutorials or post some videos of my little adventures around town. Here's my account. 
Also, for those of you who might've wanted to add me on Facebook, here's my page.

The Obituary Challenge

I've been working in The Writing Studio at Georgia State today, when a worried student came in for some assistance. She was assigned to write an obituary for her Journalism class. This obituary was to be written about the professor of her course. I'd never heard of anyone assigning something like this (probably because it's morbid), but it's very practical to learn for Journalism. From there, I had an idea. I thought what a good tag/challenge it would be for fellow bloggers to write an obituary about themselves. (not to mention a bit of morbid fun) So, Here's the rules: Link back to whoever tagged you. Put these rules in your tag.  Write an obituary about yourself (it can be as funny or as serious as you like). Write about a paragraph or two (or more if necessary) in length. You may tag up to 10 people, and be sure to link to them. Have fun, because creative writing is one of the greatest joys in life!   My Obituary:  Katie, age 18, perished on Septembe...

Pumpkin Spoils

As promised, I have the goodies I made from my pumpkin. Below are the Cajun pumpkin seeds . They're really easy to prepare: Wash the pumpkin seeds in a colander, and dry them with napkins.  Prepare a baking sheet, and spray it with cooking spray (I used butter flavored). Spread out the pumpkin seeds. Cover with salt and Cajun Seasoning. Add to taste. (featured below). Put them in the oven on 325 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes (making sure to stir them around once or twice) These are the pre-seasoned seeds.  I am very pleased with how the pumpkin seeds turned out. Cajun spices never fail. Next, I started on the pumpkin pie.  * This is enough for two pies. Put on a large pot of water to boil. After it started boiling, Pour the pumpkin meat in and cover with a lid. After you let it boil for twenty minutes or so, drain in a colander.  Put the meat back in the pot, and start mashing (or you can put it in a blender). Add about two ...

Easter Sunday Recipe

Lamentation of Christ is a beautiful painting and a noteworthy example of foreshortening. One of the perks of living in a family that celebrates Easter is food. In fact, since no member of my household actually attends church, Easter really is mostly about the food traditions. It was a lonely holiday this year with just my mother and I at home (come to think of it, Christmas was terribly lonely too!), but that did not stop us from making ungodly amounts of food. I thought I'd share one of my favorite holiday dishes. It was passed down from my grandmother to my mother, and my mother to me. It's called "Heavenly Hash." No, not that kind of hash... Ingredients: 20 oz. can of crushed pineapple 29 oz. can of mandarin oranges 12 oz. jar of maraschino cherries 7 oz. bag of sweetened coconut 1 3/4 bags of 10 oz. "fun marshmallows" 8 oz. sour cream  Simply drain the fruit, cut the cherries in half, and put them in a large bowl. Add the coconut to t...
