in order:
- the mountains on the drive home last week. yes, last week. the mysterious shiny sky orb has not been seen since.
- shitake mushroom, spinach and barley risotto (you can buy the mushrooms dried in the asian food aisle, just make sure you allow enough soaking time, like say.. three years). it was delicious.
- tulips on sale at supermarket.
- started "The Descendents" last night. We watched half. It's a two hour movie. We'll finish the rest tonight. So far it's compelling.
- have been dog tired lately. might be because we're not getting to bed until eleven at the earliest these days. in spite of telling ourselves that we'll get to bed earlier every night. whywhyWHY do we keep doing this I lament? to which K replies: because coming home, eating, then going to bed feels like slavery.
- lent feels like a good time to eat only out of cupboards. so we are trying this. I'm like the lenten iron chef. last night's barley risotto was a smash hit. tonight we're working with water chesnuts, saltines and some canned pumpkin.. :P
