Domestic Goddess

The feeling of being done with school for the near foreseeable future is an incredible sensation.  It's like being weightless and carefree....I can snuggle on the couch for hours reading a book without the guilt of knowing I have homework to complete.  And I've lost my excuse for poor housekeeping. 

Before finishing classes I made a list of the things I want to do once I graduate.  A bucket list if you will.  It contains items such as reading The Hunger Games trilogy (and tons of other books), watching the entire Harry Potter movie series (I have yet to watch the final two movies), playing the piano more, and becoming a Domestic Goddess (involving activities such as cooking, cleaning, crafting, and other Domestic endeavors). 

Sickness thwarted my early efforts at being a Domestic Goddess but today I woke up and felt quite Domestic.  And so the adventures of Domesticity began.  I browsed Pinterest and found a recipe similar to one Rebekah had recommended.  Strawberry no-bake cheesecake.  Even the name makes me drool.  The recipe was a success and Reed seemed quite happy while licking the bowl. 

Hopefully he will like Domestic Goddess Meghan and not miss Stressed Out Student Meghan too much.  ;-)
