So there is a definite pattern here: I always forget my blog day until RIGHT before I plan to go to bed. Last month it was St Patrick's day and I didn't even get myself to write anything.
Anyways, today I woke up earlier than usual and attempted to leave the flat early to avoid the painters. The painters have been arriving every morning the last week before 8:15am to fix up the flat and I just don't want to be stuck getting out of the shower when they arrive!
It was pouring rain this morning, so I grabbed my brolly and fast-walked to the station. Unfortunately my contract is ending on the 30th April and I am only two-weeks away from unemployment. I don't want to get into it right now (I just want to finish this post and go to bed) but I'm still planning what to do next. It's exciting to have a real reason to change things around, so I want to use this as an opportunity to move again and to get some field experience.
After work I came back to the flat and found that the painters had finally finished. Horray! My flatmates are also away, so I used the evening by playing music loudly as I reorganized my room and refilled my wardrobe, which I'd cleared for the painters to move furniture.
I ate a quick meal of leftovers from yesterday (spaghetti carbonara with zucchini) and then relaxed by baking cookies. The baking idea was last minute and I didn't have any chocolate chips, raisens, etc, so I decided to experiment with the two apples I had on hand.
Apple, Oatmeal, Cinnamon Cookies = delicious!
After some googling, I got this recipe from another blog http://www.mrsregueiro.com/2011/02/apple-cinnamon-oatmeal-cookies.html. While I usually can't resist chocolatey baked goods, I have to say that these were amazing and I'd make them again. And I definitely ate more than my share this evening.
