Icons and a sort-of recipie

I've been craving a good running icon, and so, like any good LJ user, decided to make some myself.

All images are from the Getty Royalty-free collection. Feel free to d/l and use as many as you want, but if you want to credit, that's probably where it should go. All I did was crop, cut, and level a bit. ;)

And after ignipies posted this a little while back, I have been craving butternut squash soup like a crazy thing. I'm not big on following recipies to the letter, but this soup turned out a-freaking-mazing (if I do say so myself), so I thought I'd try to reproduce what I did here:

( orange and curry and chili coconut goodness )

In other totally random news: GO PATS!! (evin if grrm slams them in EVERY single post he makes, I love that there's a really great team in the sport today. I love that it happens to be one of my favorite teams. And also, Tom Brady is hot and has the locker next to Randy Moss ♥ )

It snowed again last night. Seriously, it is JUST over my house. As I drive up the hill, it's rain/slush and then BOOM, within a mile of home in any direction: all snow.

Okay, off to school. Have a good Monday! (it WILL be good, short week for all those stateside.)
