Digging for treasure?

My offer is up at
help_haiti! If you've ever wanted a plush thing made by me, and want an excuse to donate to the Haiti relief effort, this is the perfect opportunity ;) (So nervous, omg *_*)
While you're there, feel free to take a look around the community as a whole, or consider donating something yourself. There's a bunch of people offering all sorts of different things, from BNFs with offers of fics and/or art, to Little Kuriboh of YuGiOh! Abridged fame offering a video with vocals. Check it out :3b

Still working on cleaning my room. I've made considerable progress since when I started, but there's still a ways to go.
Among the piles, I managed to find some of the flashcards I made for myself in the one semester of Spanish I took. I've got eight verbs, fourteen adjectives, and one-and-a-half seasons(?). They're completely adorable, if I do say so myself :)
I also found the Zatar bread recipe I thought I'd lost forever ago. I'll be sticking it up here, in case A) I lose the paper it's written on again, and/or B) someone else is interested in making it.
The recipe is as follows:
Zatar Bread
For the Zatar:
2 T sesame seeds
3 T thyme
1/2 t salt
1 t sumac
Mix together.
For the bread:
2 t yeast
2 T olive oil
2 1/2 C water
5 C bread flour
2 T gluten
3 t salt
1/4 C Zatar
Put in a bread machine on "dough" cycle (or just mix yourself, I guess?)
Line two cookie sheets with olive oil; spread the dough on them, then flatten it out.
Bake at 400°F for about 18 minutes.
This stuff is quite tasty, IMO, so consider giving the recipe a try if you're not allergic to any of it/can find all the ingredients (the sumac can be a total pain to find).
I'd best get to distracting myself, now; otherwise, I'll just end up staring at my computer screen, waiting and hoping for my inbox to become un-empty.
