Jul. 21st, 2011 10:38 amEDITING FOREVER.
Expect two fic updates tomorrow. The first chapter of War is Never Cheap Here is going live, as is a PWP fic that two of my lovely RP buddies (whom I won't name unless they say it's okay) requested last night.
David's parents are out of town this week, so David and I have been playing house. Dinner has gotten cooked every single night and we've been very good at using up leftovers/repurposing them. Everything we've made so far has been tasty, and I now know for certain that I can make marinara, pizza, alfredo, and satay sauce, maple balsamic salad dressing, and that I can turn leftover alfredo sauce into a mustard brandy cream pan sauce for steak. (Tonight is pasta with marinara sauce, Friday is beef empanadas, Saturday is chicken paprikash.)
I stayed home Monday to do some of the cooking ahead of time; I should have baked all of the bread and frozen two loaves, because now I have to do that today. Tomorrow, we're going to Jackson for the day. We'll either be heading to the property that night or the following morning, and then spending Saturday hiking up in the high country. Wish me luck - I think David said we'll be crossing up over 10,000 ft.
Sunday, David and I went hiking (though not nearly that high), and I went rock climbing (of a sort) for the first time ever outside, third time ever EVER. Pictures below the cut!
We only took pictures from one location - on top of the huge boulder that we climbed up.


Yeah, see how steep that slope is? I climbed that. And about cried. SO SCARY.

But David knew what he was doing, so it was all good.

We got a picture of me climbing, but it was on another section of the boulder that was much easier to manage, so I could hold position long enough.
ETA: (SEE MORE EDITING IT NEVER STOPS I TELL YOU) The PWP is getting posted tonight. :)
