The HungryandFrozen List

Will write an impassioned preamble when I get the energy.

List, so far, of things to achieve by June 30 2012 (list to be finalised by Sunday October 8 2011)

1: Triple my Twitter followers to around 1800.

2: Read ten books that I bought from the last two Bookfairs. List here when done. (1: Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit.)

3: Make a recipe from every single cookbook I own and at least ten of my many Cuisine magazines.

4: Learn conversational Te Reo

5: Keep our room tidy for two weeks.

6: Keep our room tidy for a month.

7: Practice the splits every day till I can do oversplits again

8: Leave for work five minutes earlier for a whole week, then forever.

9: Set in place some bookings for a trip to New York and New Orleans with Tim.

10: Write letters to Susan Blackwell and Idina Menzel.

11: Continue developing video tutorials on YouTube, at least one per month.

12: Something to do with dancing, but I can't think what. One time in an insomniac daze I scrawled in the dark what in the readable morning light turned out to be the rough outline of a one-woman play based on my dancing non-career, but I'm thinking something a little more...simple. Will ponder.

13: Work on developing enough recipes - or at least recipe ideas, as I don't have a lot of spare time - to realistically fill a cookbook.

14: Get a book deal. (Why not? I feel like I'm immensely publishable. All I need is for someone else with a basket full of book deals to feel that too.)

15: Wash my face every single night, instead of falling asleep with makeup on.

16: Do a guest round at the music quiz that I go to every week. Sub-goal: for our team to win, just once.

17: Try making bacon ice cream

18: If I end up in Australia, or she in New Zealand, orchestrate a much-needed meetup between myself and Hannah from Wayfaring Chocolate.
