Jun. 23rd, 2016 10:01 pmLast night, I made congo bars. That recipe is AMAZING (although it needs some more cook time than the site says - it was raw in the middle after 30 minutes). Five thumbs up, no doubt.
On Saturday, I'm going to a Regency dance demo out at Cape Vincent! And I'm being social and carpooling! Double success, triple when you count not having to drive. Going to wear my thesis outfit because of the heat, and because my proper Regency corset and evening dress are a bit too small in the bust. I'm also getting myself involved with sewing a dress for another person ... I know, I know, it's a bad idea, but she has the pattern and material. Her pattern is modern, though, and she wants to adapt it for Regency. I'm going to talk to her some more about it and find out if she has an historical one around (she says that when she's used them in the past they came out too big, so I'm hoping that means she has one) that I can use instead, because this sounds really tricky. I don't know, maybe I should turn her down, I don't want to do a really stressful "simple" project.
