I finished two things in August 2010:
1) Learn to pickle something, like green beans
I pickled jalapenos from the garden using Michael Symon’s recipe, and also pickled and canned escabeche!
2) Turn the area by the back fence/arbor into a garden with wildflowers
Dug out a big area, edged it, put down landscape fabric, a drip hose, and mulch. Planted 6 perennials, rhubarb, and wildflower seeds. It looks awesome!
Items currently in progress:
1) Visit the three states I haven’t been to yet: NH, VT, ME (Bought a ticket to Syracuse with Matt in November so I can visit Vermont!)
2) Be 100% debt-free
3) Rebuild 404lab to increase ad revenue (new WP template in place… just need a few tweaks and graphics.)
4) Enter something in the state fair every year, 2010-2012 (Submitted my 2010 entry!)
9) Have date night with Matt once a month
10) Visit 20 new local restaurants/bars (Heartland in St Paul, Thom Pham’s Wondrous Kitchen)
13) Take new photos of every place I’ve lived (9/17 – photos here)
14) Put $20 towards debt payoff for each completed task on this list ($40 for the 2 items in August)
Here’s the full list. I’m updating it regularly!
