New Year's Resolutions

I have like 5 or 10 resolutions for the new year. Last night, as I sat down to write out my goals, I thought to myself..."if I have this many resolutions, does this mean I stink at life now?" HAHA, oh well. I'm me. But, I do have a few things I would like to do this year!

1. I want to learn to knit. My mom and aunt are really good and I would like to make something cool--- like a scarf or fingerless gloves! -Although I don't see a huge point with those, but some are kinda cute! Maybe I will start with leg warmers for tights or a cute hat!

2. Another resolution is have is to learn how to cook! I have a BRAND NEW Kitchen Aid mixer (wedding gift!) and 2 new All Clad pots/pans (which is the BEST stainless steel cookware- gifts from Christmas and wedding!) Yet, I still can't cook. I have been keeping up with Lauren David's blog for yummy recipes! She seems to have it together! And I still burn things in the microwave. Oh well- At least I have nice kitchen stuff!

All Clad Stainless Steel- never buy another pot again!

Kitchen Aid- mine's silver!

3. I want to be less frazzled... I want to take more bubble baths, read more books, and just spend days learning to bake cookies while watching movies.
