Sunday Confessions! Knitting, books, banana muffins and vegan shrimps.
Hallo meine Lieben,
I really hope your weekend is going great! It is Sunday which means that I am linking up with lovely Alyx from Every Day Is A New Adventure and that I finally have some time to catch up with all your lovely blogs. The last days have been pretty hectic so I am excited to read what you guys experienced in the last days.
Confession #1.
I am a little scared that you might get sick of me because I am behind on reading your blogs and commenting. I am really sorry about that and I promise to get better. Don't leave me, please!
Confession #2.
I have only finished reading 2 books so far this year. I would love to read at least 50 books but I guess that won't happen. I just don't find enough time to read as much as I want.
Confession #3.
I found some vegan shrimps in a store yesterday and I am very excited to try them. I hope they taste great. I want to roast them with some garlic and olive oil and then eat them with pasta. I really hope I won't be disappointed.
Confession #4.
I will try to bake banana muffins today and I am a little scared that they might turn out like the last muffins I made. I guess I am just not a very talented baker.
Confession #5.
I got cotton wool and knitting needles and now I just need to have the courage to start knitting. And maybe learn how to knit. My first project is a scarf.
What do you have to confess? Have a wonderful weekend!
I love banana muffins!!! I hope they turn out well. :)
ReplyDeleteThey look fine so far! :) Thank you!
DeleteVegan shrimp? You definitely need to let us know how that tastes!
ReplyDeleteI will, Chelsea!
DeleteI'm behind in my books too. It's partially because Gone Girl was kinda tough to get into for me and now it's because I don't care about any of the characters in the book I'm reading. But I really want to get it done.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read that book yet but I have heard so many things about it! But I know what you mean, I always want to finish books too, even when I don't like them that much!
DeleteYay, on starting to knit! You can do it! Let me know if you need any help! Hugs xxx
ReplyDeleteYou are so sweet, Chrissy! I will probably start tonight and I'll see how it goes! I am sure it will be a mess and I need help! Thank you so much! You rock, my friend! Hugs!
DeleteI wont get sick of you!!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck reading, I am behind but the book I am reading now involves a lot of thinking so I dont mind taking it slow.
Thanks for saying that, Celeste! You are so sweet!
DeleteYeah, I can imagine how you feel about the book. Also sometimes it makes me a little sad when I finish a book too fast!
Mmm the muffins sound good! What books have you read so far? I too am trying to read 50 this year and am always looking for suggestions!

The muffins were really good!
DeleteI am currently reading the Carl Morck series bz Jussi Adler Olsen. Awesome crime novels!
Banana muffins are my favorite....
ReplyDeletesorry to say, I am not much of a reader. I like to skip ahead.
I looove banana muffins!
DeleteSometimes I am tempted to skip ahead too. :)
we could never get sick of you!
ReplyDeleteand I wished I read more too but I'd rather read awesome blogs like this!
good luck with the muffins!
Aww, you are so sweet, Meg!
DeleteThe muffins turned out really great! Thank yoU!
Good luck with the knitting! I know you will do great! :) And everyone gets busy... just happy to have you around when you are here! ~Stephanie
ReplyDeleteYou are so sweet Stephanie! Thank you so much!
DeleteAnd knitting is so much fun! It does lot look very professional yet but I am learning!
When I was learning to knit, the videos on http://www.knittinghelp.com/ were SO helpful when I'd get confused about how to do a stitch.
ReplyDeleteThat is so awesome, thank you so much! Knitting is so much fun!
DeleteI'm with you on #4 but then I am completely lost in the kitchen but at least you can try to make something.
ReplyDeleteI can relate to #1 very much. even when I have the time, I just don't know what to say. sometimes I think I write the same comments on different blogs and don't even know it. there is just some much one can say without sounding rude or offending but I always try to leave encourging comments, which I often get as well, even very brief ones could mean alot to someone.
so, hope you have success with your banana muffins. have a sweet day.
The kitchen is always a mess when I cook and most times it turns out completely different than I wanted to!
DeleteYeah, I totally know what you mean about #1. I always want to say something nice and encouraging but I also don't want to sound boring or anything like that!
the muffins turned out great, thank you so much!
Hi, my dearest Katrin! ;p First and foremost, let me apologize for not having replied your latest e-mail; shame on me! :/ You are in thoughts, though, that's for sure! ;) Hope you're getting my good vibes! Be happy that soon you'll be in David's arms and enjoying a well-deserved trip, hooray to that!
ReplyDeleteI wish I knew how to knit, haha, I tried a scarf years ago and my mom had to finish it because I messed up inexplicably.
And hey, I'll never stop following your blog! And even if you stopped blogging, I'd still follow you somehow ;) ... In a totally non-creepy way, btw, haha!
Lots of hugs your way! ;D And hope you have a wonderful week!
Hey Miki, don't worry about the emails. I know we all have stress! you are in my thoughts too!
DeleteHaha, I tried a scarf once too and my mom had to finish it for me. :)
Thank you for always following me, even when I stop blogging! >) You rock!
Lots of hugs and love!
I've been wanting to start knitting! There is an adorable yarn shop down the block from me and they give classes....ANOTHER reason why we SHOULD BE NEIGHBORS!!!! :)
ReplyDeletexoxo
WE REALLY SHOULD, Kari! I would love to knit with you! It would be so much fun!
DeleteUhhh yeah about being behind on blogging - you're probably doing WAYYY better than me, so don't feel bad! lol blogging takes so much time, and sometimes you just need to get other things done!
ReplyDeleteGlad I am not the only one! :) Thank you, Alyx!
DeleteGreat that you are learning how to knit! I taught myself about 10 years ago over Spring Break.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how you feel about wool, but it really is the best to knit with. Cotton yarn is actually harder to knit with!
It is awesome that you taught yourself! I have to admit that I am not very good at knitting so far. :)
DeleteI have tried cotton yarn and I guess you are right and it is pretty hard to knit with it!
