@Wildfire: Sounds like a good reason to stay a couch potato to me lol. Your soup sounds delicious, although personally I'm not a fan of lemon for savory foods. I looooove a good crusty bread with soup. <3

I'm enjoying the new Fruits Basket so far, so would recommend watching for sure. I enjoyed Hunter x Hunter a lot, and I won't spoil anything for you. But personally I'm sad with how they chose to end things. Don't get me wrong, it was a good ending, but it left me wanting more, like some loose ends were left I think? I'd have to look for the manga to see if it goes further--maybe then I'll feel a better sense of closure. Overall though, I really, really enjoyed that series, as long as it was. I'm fine with watching longer series as long as the plot and the characters are good. I actually didn't care for Death Note, for example. Okay, maybe that's not really a long series, but it's one of the more popular ones that left me like meh.
@Yae Meiji: Ah, well I hope you're able to find somewhere good for you when you're ready.
@Wildfire: Oh yeah, I can't imagine how much space winter clothing and such takes up for those who live where it snows. My wardrobe is already too big for my own good, so I wouldn't do well with that. >.>

I watched a lot of tv this weekend. I started and finished this new series on Netflix called Pressure Cooker, which is a cooking competition show. Not terrible, but not the best cooking show either. I didn't care for the setup of the game, but I watched it anyway. Also started watching the revamped Fruits Basket, finally. I finally finished watching Hunter x Hunter earlier this week, and I think I need to find another shounen anime to watch.

Ooh, your soup sounds delicious. I can't remember if I've ever had white beans, but I do love spinach. What did you use for your stock? Any cream? I personally can't stand cream in my soups, but to each their own.
@Wildfire: Oh wow, way out there, huh? I've never been there, nor do I know what to expect other than what you said--cold. xP I kinda disappeared yesterday and was a total couch potato. Today's looking like about the same. Oatmeal sounds yummy. I forgot we bought this coffee concentrate from an Asian food store, so tried it with some ice and half and half and it's delicious! Going to have to remember to take a picture of this bottle to buy in the future. Soup sounds like a fabulous choice too. What kind did you end up making? All I've had so far today, besides coffee, was a bite of a white chocolate chip lemon cookie, which I wasn't expecting the lemon, so that put me off since I wasn't feeling like lemon in the moment. Then took a few bites of this chocolate turtle cake my guy brought home last night that I didn't get to eat since I was too full from dinner. Think I'll re-heat some chicken for lunch later.

@Purpsy: lol yep, there's a term for not exactly roughing it in the wilderness. xD I'd like to go camping again sometime, maybe this year, but gotta get the equipment first, which is expeeeensive. How's your day going?
@Purpsy: You could always try "glamping", which is when people use trailers instead of tents, plus other tech that might not be traditional for camping. I like being out in nature, but only for so long lol. I've spent most of my life close to cities and suburbs, so kinda used to that. Also, thank you! <3 I meant to say that I love your soot sprite flob, or whatever you'd call it in your posts lol.

@Wildfire: I can imagine it's a lot. *hugs* I'm glad you can find something to laugh about though. <3 How's your morning going so far? I've gotta get some coffee going and find something to eat. I've got plenty here, just have to decide what.

Ugh, I hate the moving process, but I hope yours goes well! I've moved thrice in the past seven years, and we typically rent a U-Haul for the day and have my brothers help with the heavy lifting. I can't lift much, so I usually end up doing the packing and the cleaning.
@Yae Meiji: Oof, well I'm glad you're out of the old apartment complex. It's nice to feel safe in one's own home. Are you in a new place yet, or still home?
I thought I replied here the other day, but I guess not lol.

@Wildfire: Aw, I hope the move goes well for your son. And I hope you're doing well also, despite your recent events.

@Koah: Your raccoon story sounds hilarious, but I'd also be salty especially since it was a near-full bag of marshmallows. xP I see you changed up your cowgirl avi, and I love it!

@Purpsy: Honestly camping can be really fun if you have the right conditions. I was just unlucky, I guess. Also in the same trip with the raccoon, it was rainy and cold most of the time we were there, so we ended the trip early because we were all miserable lol. Seriously though, you should totes try camping sometime!
@Wildfire: lol well if you're comfortable with sharing your latest news, I wouldn't mind learning, but if not, that's cool too.

@Koah: IRL keeping me busy too, so no worries. And yay for happy accident avis lol. Or whatever you'd call that situation, but I know the feeling. xD Also your tomato story sounds adorable. <3

@Purpsy: Your tent story sounds equally adorable and terrifying. xD

I haven't been camping much in my life, but I've got some interesting stories from the few times I've been. I remember going when I was 6 or 7, and a water moccasin swam towards our campgrounds and actually managed to make it almost toward the middle of it, but a distant uncle at the time was quick on his feet and decapitated it in front of all of us with a shovel.

And then several years ago, I went on a camping trip as part of one of my college classes, and I got burgled by a raccoon and I was soooo salty about it! Basically on our way to the campgrounds, we made a pit stop at this coffee shop, and I got a banana nut muffin that I swear to this day was the best I've ever had. I didn't finish it, so decided to save it for later. Upon arriving at the campgrounds, we were warned by the professor never to leave our tents open in case the brazen neighborhood raccoons wanted to pillage. *I* made sure to close the tent every time, but some moron left it open and we later found a raccoon inside and it STOLE MY MUFFIN!! We were quite a ways from the coffee shop, so not like I could get a new one.
@Wildfire: Nothing really new with me. Same old stuff. How about you?

@CooperationIsKey: lol I've walked out of my way for good coffee as well, so I feel your pain. xD I bought a bunch of food stuff today, and probably spent too much, but I'm always throwing money around for good food lol.

@cashew: Trade sent, and thanks very much!
@Koah: Doing pretty alright as well. Mostly been busy with work, but I try to remember to come here sometimes, even if just to check for announcements.

And thank you! <3 Yours is cute as well. Looks kinda like a festive cowgirl lol.
Been a while since I last posted here.

How's everyone?
