parathas and lifeplans

I totally forgot about this today, Gah.
I actually studied today! Now I just have to post three times in the discussions in my class online, then move on to the next chapter. Problem is, I keep falling asleep whenever I try to study.

I didn't cook anything today, besides making myself a kabab roll paratha for breakfast, loaded with yummies: Labne, shami kabab, tomato, olives, green chilli and Monterey jack cheese. I could barely get the paratha to wrap itself around everything. How I ate it is a totally different story.

It was yum, Alhamdulillah.

I'm waiting for Black Friday sales to see if I can find a good deal on a DSLR Insha Allah. I've been saving up for it, so I hope I finally get to buy it! So exciting.

I'm just really sleepy right now.
I actually got out of bed to write this post.
Appreciate it. Thanks.

I'm going to write Tankas one day, and compile them into a book. Someday.

nablopomo and hydrating. yippee.

I registered my blog for NaBloPoMo - for November 2011. That basically means I'll be updating my blog every day for a month, which should be fun! I probably won't be posting about food everyday though. Maybe a little bit of crochet and life in general. Speaking of which, I really need to start working on Newbah's blanket again; it's getting cold now. We could use it for her stroller when we're out Insha Allah!

I have about two cups of cooked black beans sitting in the refrigerator. Gotta think up something creative that I could do with them for dinner, perhaps. Really not in the mood to cook today though. Let's see, they might just turn into burgers, yum!

In other news, I'm going to really start working on drinking more water every day. Apparently, most of us live in a dehydrated state. If you feel thirsty, you're already dehydrated. The trick is to drink water before you even feel the need, and keep drinking regularly. Lack of water could lead to all sorts of problems, from muscle soreness to water retention, digestive complications and obesity. Let's drink more water!
