Progress on goal 1...

So to achieve this goal, I need to start out small! I am literally THE WORST in the world at drawing, I draw like a left handed chimpanzee that's had a stroke! So I googled fashion design sketches, saved heaps to my ipad and picked one that looked somewhat simple to copy! I tried some with paper and a pencil and then used the Paper53 app on my ipad (because I am in love with it!!) I used my chubby little fingers on the ipad but I think I am off to a strong start! I am going to get a stylus this week and see if it helps!

So here are the images form google images I tried to copy:

And here is my attempt at copying it! Not toooo bad, a long way to go, but a start eh..!?


Progress on goal 2...


Goal 2: To cook more adventurously...HOME MADE FETTUCINE! From scratch...literally..made the actual pasta and everything! Now I've attempted to make home made pasta before, ravioli to be precise, and it resulted in me throwing most things around the kitchen, screaming and general hulking out...and slimy ravioli!!
So this time I camply entered the kitchen, made sure I had lots of flour and used a rolling pin rather than a wine bottle!!! It turns out fettucine is WAY easier than ravioli, and it turned out really yummy, with no broken kitchen equipment or scared flatmates! I then just made a creamy mushroom and bacon sauce, which is easy to make and much nicer than a bought one!
YEAHAAAAAAAAA!
Goal 2: To cook more adventurously... A yummy salad I've been making a lot lately! I use:

spinach and cos lettuce
cherry tomatoes
cucumber
gherkin
olives
red onion
red pepper
feta cheese
and to top it off Crispy noodles and balsamic dressing YUM!

I have been making it pretty much every night, on the side of all kinds of meals!

This years goals...

Three of my major goals for this year are:

1. Learn how to draw for fashion design
2. Cook more adventurously
3. Get back to the weight I should be (approx 10kgs lighter)

I am going to use my blog to not only update fashion, design, theatre etc that I love but also to document my progree in these 3 goals!

WOOP WOOP!

Good luck me!
