Goal 15 - Watch top 100 movies. I've watched The Searchers, Pulp Fiction, and Goodfellas. I'm watching A Place in the Sun as I type this. I've liked all of them so far. Pulp Fiction I'd seen already but I didn't need an excuse to watch it again. :) It seems I've passed over The Apartment and it's not on Netflix so I'll have to see if the library has it.
Goal 17 - Read top 100 novels. I finished Doctor Zhivago and really liked it. I think it helped that I had been in Russia - so I sort of had a picture reference in my head when I was reading. I have just started the first few chapters of For Whom the Bell Tolls. Not bad so far.
Goal 32 - Make meals from 30 different countries. A week after we did Turkey, I was looking up recipes and realized I had everything we needed to make the next country; Zimbabwe. I made Dovi (peanut butter stew) and sweet potato cookies. I also tried to make cornmeal cake but it inedible. I baked it for hours and it still was runny. :/ Oh well.
Goal 80 - Go to the Jelly Belly Museum in Kenosha, WI. Last Sunday I went there with my son, mom, sister, and niece. It was great fun and I ate too much candy. :)
Goal 86 - Make 50 best cookies. I've made the Petit Lemon Curd Cookies, Chocolate Chip Cookies, and today the Heath Bar cookies. It's not really helping my weight loss goals, but they taste so good. I try to make them before going to a party or somewhere so I can bring them all along to share. :)
I think that's about it for now. NaNoWriMo is coming up soon but I'm not sure I'll be able to this month. I suppose I'll try anyway tho.
