a strange mood and a revelation

I am in a very strange mood today. I have been working on the same damn project all day and I am about to lose it. I am trying to come up with something positive to write about, but it isn’t easy. I love writing about happy things, but all I can think about is the stupid people I have come in contact with in the last few days. Ugh. My one vent will go as follows, because I actually thought of something cheerful:  Why do people pin pictures of chinchillas on Pinterest?  I just don’t understand it, and I am pretty positive I never will.

Anyhoo, I have been trying to figure out how I can organize my recipes, because I have a meltdown every time I open my folder - and it became very clear to me yesterday. Positive Discovery #1:  Martha has teamed up with Staples and makes products that are made from interesting materials, come in beautiful colors, and will help better organize one’s life. I am going to opt for a 3-ring binder for the recipes. I was very against it, but I have come to grips with it being the smartest choice; not to mention I can put all of my recipes in a protective clear cover, so they will not get muddied-up any more than they already are. I am on board for a red binder and the plastic dividers pictured. I was going to opt for her signature blue-ish protective covers, but they are taxed and I think clear is the better way to go. Plus, if her Staples line gets discontinued (sorry Martha, but times are tough), I won’t have a problems buying more clear covers because I am pretty sure regular Staples is going to be around forever. Now I just have to figure out my five sections.  I was thinking; hors d’oeuvres, dinners, breakfast-like desserts, desserts, and drinks. Sounds good to me!
