The Vermont Life


Today, I'm making a Mrs. Fields recipe for Chocolate Mousse Tart. Sooo amazing! I know it will be very good.

This weekend, our neighbors asked Zach and I to house sit for them. They have 12 chickens, 2 cats, a rabbit, a fish, and 3 horses (and 2 dogs that went with them on vacation). We're allowed to stay over there and watch tv at night (because we don't have one) so we've mostly been heading over there in the evenings to play with the cats and watch movies with the surround sound.

I can officially drive a clutch. I don't stall very much anymore (which is a bit of a miracle with all of the starting on hills around here!) and I drive an hour to work every day. I'm really into going car test driving to see how different cars feel (because after the long road trip weeks ago, I enjoy driving finally). And we all know, I really want a car. But even test driving would be a lot of fun. Maybe mom or dad will want to come with me, because let's face it, without them there's no chance they'll let me test drive anything, because they'll know I won't be able to actually afford anything... but if we can convince them mom's looking to buy a car for me (even though she's definitely not!) then they'll at least let me drive some :-)

I think that's all for now. I'm going to go make brunch!

They let me drive a Saturn Sky at the dealership in Okemos, but one of the sales guys had to go with me. I'm pretty sure they will let you test drive cars if you just walk in and pretend you have a budget (like $6k or something).
