Waiting
Yesterday I thought I had a lot to do, and in the end almost everything planned fell through. But the good thing was that I didn't know that would happen, so I got up early (or, at a decent hour) and did my laundry and some cleaning. Then as I waited and waited to get an email, I started cooking. I ended up spending the whole day in the kitchen, using only thing I already had on hand. I made:
-cranberry bread
-apple sauce
-pumpkin purée
-butternut squash purée
-pumpkin spice blend (including grinding up a few of the spices)
-lunch and dinner
I was pretty impressed with how much I got done! Now I must do a big grocery haul to get the rest of the ingredients for healthy butternut squash muffins, and a nice dinner.
Last night I also went to see the people I lived with when I moved here 4 years ago. They have changed somewhat, in a good way, and I am now their queer instead of their American. I kind of like it.
