Progress report [summer goals]

    A good list of achievable goals! I especially like the goal of making a good vanilla frosting. I had a cupcake for my birthday that had the sickliest and sweetest vanilla frosting and it was simply revolting! Let us know when you have the perfect recipe!

    Where in Australia are you going to visit this year?

    Too sweet vanilla frosting is no fun. Let me know when you find some that works, 'cause I always make it wrong.

    Alla & Georgie - Definitely will let you know about the frosting. I need to get on that. Alla, I'm going to Perth, Sydney, Brisbane, and Gold Coast. Wish I were hitting Tasmania this time; I'd love to meet you!

    pinkapplecore - I think it depends on the context...I feel like most people would be flattered.

    Jamie - I read Othello and The Winter's Tale, and I picked Much Ado About Nothing for the third one.
