We were going to ride bikes to some place that involves cows and outside pubs but the weather is a little tempermental. Instead we had a nice big english breakfast and walked around town. I picked up a cross stitch book, because lord knows I need another craft in my life. We went to a museum at Jason’s college that had cool illustrations of ships and really amazing book bindings. It inspired me to think about pirate treasure maps and gold leaf and cross stitch.<\/p>\n
We came home and I made some pizza dough for dinner then went out in search of groceries. It’s very difficult to get simple ingredients here. For instance, there doesn’t seem to be a drop of liquid form canned or cartoned broth, they only have boullion or powder that you mix with hot water. I went into a korean grocery store. I found really good looking fresh noodles, but what do you do with them if you have no broth? I’m so confused. I also had trouble finding mozarella. Anywhoooo, we will be having pizza. One will be a nice, simple margarita with fresh basil and mozarella, the other will be kale and carmelized onions with feta. Yum!<\/p>\n
I had a nice, long walk today and got to enjoy a mint chip ice cream in the park. I think this afternoon I will work on a painting that will involve cross-stitch. Or I might take a nap. Oh, speaking of napping, I had a full night’s sleep last night and I finally feel like a normal human being today. We had a fancy dinner at Jason’s college last night wich involved a gin and tonic (no ice), a healthy quantity of red wine, and a port. After dinner I took sleeping pills, I really wanted to make sure I’d get some sleep once and for all. Boy, it really worked. I woke up once around 3:30 but was back asleep and woke up again at 7, which at this point, is a very respectable time to wake up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
