To do list meme

I am amazingly behind in posting again because I have been so busy--but I have cooked a lot, so keep your eyes peeled (possibly the most disgusting metaphor ever) for new posts (which will be backdated like always).

As most of you know, I almost never do meme's on this blog because it's a food blog and I figure you don't care. But I really adored this list and I would love to know what the rest of you have done. (I stole this from http://littlestorydesigns.blogspot.com/ )
