We left early today. (All hail state jobs when you can leave at 3:30pm) So instead of rushing home to do my homework, I dwadled around the grocery store for an hour. I managed to buy predominantly healthy food, which doesn't always happen. Some chicken, beef, fish, mangoes, cilantro, limes, red and white onions, lemons, dried ancho peppers, rice, beans, pita bread, raspberry chipotle sauce, red bell peppers, orange juice, yogurt, and pasta. I splurged on some mint chocolate chip ice cream, and Girl Scout Thin Mint ice cream. Mmmm, minty chocolate goodness.

My oil warmer is working superbly well. I mix a few drops of BPAL goodness into the bowl of water, and let a tea light burn for about half an hour.

Drat. I wanted to buy flowers and I completely forgot.

I spend the training hours coloring my placemat chart with a half dozen markers. If I can do something with my hands, I can listen and retain more. Hence, the constant doodling or coloring. I have already turned one mat into a stained glass mosaic, and traded it to another girl in the class for her blank mat. Hah! I am now attempting a floral motif.

I really like my new icon. stickywicket makes neat stuff.

My palmiers never look as neat and perfect as they do in the cookbook. Sigh. the bottoms always look a bit scorched, because the sugar carmelizes and I worry people will think them burnt. Sigh.

... protect my balls!

Seriously, the Authethic Weapons From the Far East episode of Southpark is the funniest, most awful and delightfully wrong thing ever. If only for that super hilarious ninja theme song. Let's fighting love!
