Milestone! :)

Well I am pleased with myself. I reached a milestone when it comes to my iTunes Music Library. Over the past 6 weeks, I have imported 2500-2700 songs into my iTunes music library, converting 251 audio CDs to the digital MP3 format. And in the process I removed songs which were burned with the wrong information or lost their formatting during the conversion previously. I also got rid of loads of duplicates imports. And for all of the duplicates I got rid of (when there duplicates, in most cases there were 2 copies for every 1 song) — I also got in a lot of new content.

So my iTunes stands at just under 7000 songs. Which is nice. I have a large selection of music all on one device 🙂 But since the search functions on the iPod are non-existent, I can’t take advantage of it the way I want to 🙁

But this is no time to rest on my ass. I have another case of CDs which need to be imported — about 80 more CDs before I can close my CD cabinet for a long long time. But not forever as some songs wouldn’t burn and I decided to skip them. But hey, you can’t have complete perfection. 🙂

Yummy Dinner :)

Yesterday I invited Markus over for the dinner. Actually, dinner should have been a week ago, but I was sick last weekend so it had to be this weekend instead. I made lasagne and there was a caesar salad and baugettes to to go along with it. And for dessert, an almond snickers cake.

I have to say that the lasagne turned out quite good. Even though I didn’t make a white sauce to go with and decided that the top of the lasagne should focus on blending the different cheeses I used together. And instead of red wine to the lasagne, I decided on a white semillon chardonnay. And it went quite well. So dinner to me was a success. Just next time I will make my own noodles for use in the pasta. It just feels better to make the pasta and the sauce myself.

And the company was nice too. I like Markus a lot. It is always relaxing to sit and chat with him. 🙂

I woke up this morning still full from yesterday. And I have 6 squares of lasagne left. Anyone want some?
