I held her...

I've been playing with my hammies everyday in hopes of taming them, and Mochi let me pick her up a couple days ago!! That's not to say that they aren't scared of me, cause they still are very cautious. But hey~ I'm a few steps closer! So far I'm able to: pet them, have them walk unto my hand, and have them eat off my hand. *beaming* I feel like a little girl who has just learned to tie her shoes!
They are so lovable. I've been so sad after losing my two syrians; these girls totally brighten my day! And they are a delight to watch on the wheel.

I've also been in a cooking mood this week and I managed to take pictures. Most of the time, I end up cooking during the mid evening so I don't end up taking pictures cause the lighting is horrible. But this time I managed to get it done during daylight. I really can't wait to get a new camera. I've been eye-ing the nikon d40... now I'm just waiting for a hunk of cash to fall upon me.

I've been craving spaghetti, so that might be on the menu sometime soon. And I love waking up the next morning to have some the leftover spaghetti sauce on some toast. It's yummy!
