Little Miss Modern's Rants, Raves, and Recipes

It's been a while since my last post... things got kinda busy with the beginning of the holidays and everything.

I don't know what's up with my body-- the joints on my right side are giving me the hardest time. My knee and elbow on my right are just KILLING ME! If I stay warm, it doesn't seem to be that big of an issue, but if I'm cold, my joints get all... weird.

I'm only 23. What the heck is going on???

On the menu in the near future are the amazing and flavorful meatballs that I'm going to feature in my next post. I'm crazy about them. I've probably made them 5 times in the past few months since I discovered them. They're from My Kitchen Cafe, again... a lot of what I cook is from that site, because Melanie has some AMAZING recipes.

I haven't been cooking lately, because of Thanksgiving. I had no need to cook. I think, though, that I am going to make a green bean casserole over the next couple days, because it's one of my favorite holiday meals that I missed out on since there were just WAY too many things on our table this Thanksgiving.

I'll probably also make another pumpkin (or some kind) of pie, because I didn't really have any pie either.

When it came down to it, I wasn't feeling so hot on Thanksgiving...

and I was sick the next two days after.

I saw NEW MOON yesterday. My mom, my brother and his girlfriend all went. I enjoyed it. I thought it was a bit on the long side, but certainly a good movie. I was SO surprised about Dakota Fanning's role in the movie. I didn't expect Jane to be so young-- just small. The impression in the books was that she was just little-- not necessarily young in age.

When Jacob took his shirt off, everyone in the theater gasped. It was a pretty captivating moment.

I guess that's all the events of the past few days... It's been a whole week, I guess.

I'll post that recipe in the next little while.

bye for now!
