summer summary

1. Got back from Hong Kong on Jul 26. Long trip--almost 30 hours. A 3-hour delay with the flight from Chicago to Lexington...so annoying. Luckily, gotta buy a manga magazine (which came with a free clock) while waiting for the connection flight in Japan.

2. Helped to host the LKS Regional Meeting here in Lexington. A pretty neat 3-day event. Gotta meet lots of nice girls from different states (and 2 guys from Canada). Sold >50 t-shirts with my design on them (slightly modified from the designed I posted here earlier).

3. Drove to St. Louis with my family last week. Stayed there for 2 nights in a very unique hotel (old English decor). Gateway Arch, river cruise, zoo, art museum, history museum, brewing plant tour, farmer's market, bowling museum. Very nice.

4. Learned to knit last weekend. Still working on a scarf. Too many scarves in my closet now...

5. Tried to make tiramisu today. Just used FF cream cheese, FF cool whip, lady fingers, instant coffee, cocoa powder, hot chocolate mix, and powdered sugar. Tasted pretty much like the real thing but a lot less fat. Gotta make that again.
