I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I sure did! I went to have dinner with some family in Vancouver and ate way, waaay too much and was sent home with tons of leftovers so I should be set through til next week! I had meant to make this cranberry-cherry crisp to take with me to the dinner, but found out that I had bought the wrong can of cherries so I wasn't so sure how it would turn out, but Rick sure seemed to like it! I think it was a little more tart than the original recipe, but it was still yummy. Plus there was pumpkin pie and a razzleberry pie, so plenty of sweet stuff too!
Well, today I actually ::gasp:: ventured out to the shops by my apartment to see what this crazy thing of Black Friday shopping is all about (for the first time ever) and actually found all those shops pretty un-busy compared to what I thought it would be. Perhaps because they aren't the big chains, but that was okay with me. I didn't dare go to the Fred Meyer until after 11am because I hear that their big sock sale is all kinds of crazy, and I really don't need to be fighting people for a pair of socks. Good thing I went food shopping on Wednesday.
I can't believe this is the last weekend before school starts - I'm so excited! We just have an orientation on Monday, but I am so excited about it! I get my uniforms and books and a schedule, yay! I don't plan on venturing out into the crazy Christmas shopping this weekend, so I should be able to finish the little unpacking I have left - hopefully I'll be able to get some pictures of the inside of my apartment up by Monday! But for now, here are some pictures of the streets around my apartments. Not much to see, just streets and cars and such, but yeah - this is my neighborhood!
This is my street - King Ave. My apartment building is to the right of the "watch out for the stop sign" sign.
This is the street I will most likely walk down to get to my school. Go down til you see those cars waiting at the light, and turn right and go down a couple of blocks.
This is the street I look out of my apartment window down onto (my apartment is to the right in this photo).
And this is my apartment building.
King Towers, ta da!
Whew, okay it took me like an hour to get those pictures up. The picture part of this blogger doesn't like me, but it's done and so I am done! :)
