In the past few days, I have made: guacamole, a big pot of lentil soup with coconut milk, homemade naan, ghee (whee! cooking butter is fun, if also a little intimidating), a bit batch of egg salad for sandwiches. Dinner last night with B. and K. was lamb chops with a balsamic glaze; buttery, fall-apart-y carrots; and a ton of peppery broccoli. On the agenda still are a veggie soup (recipe for getting-over-illness/immune booster soup extraordinaire), and I’ve been craving a creamy soup, so I’m pondering potato-leek. Also accomplished: bills paid, money transferred to savings, bathrooms cleaned (tub scrubbed, too), draft of essay finished and sent to Hillary for feedback. And yesterday I spent about forty minutes reading a book while reclining in the sun on a lounge chair in my backyard. I’d say the weekend is going well.

About

I'm a twentysomething MFA grad enjoying life in a state of flux, dreaming of Paris and San Francisco while loving the warm summer evenings in North Carolina. I'm a little irreverent, a little mercurial, with an uncanny knack for putting my foot in my mouth.
