My first Earned Day Off in many years and I really am enjoying it. I booked in to get my hair cut, I wanted something different but not too different. It's now layered with a bit heavier bang/fringe and when i left the salon, it looked a bit Joan Jettish with the layers and she'd straightened it. Now it's gone flat again so you don't see that look so much. Still, it's cool and light and i like it.
I then went up to Pete's Frootique and spent a bomb. I always do when i go there because everything looks so nice and fresh and there's lots of different things to try. I got a bunch of different fruit, satsuma manadarins, cherries (red and yellow), mangos and plums. I was going to get strawberries but they were expensive and we're going down to my aunt's cottage tomorrow so we'll stop at the fruit and veg market on the way there and they'll be much cheaper. I got some lovely bread with cranberries, apples and currants in it, and some foccacia for sandwiches. Several different kinds of cheese. a ginger ale made with natural cane, (it was lovely), anyway... i spent a lot and i'll have nice things to nosh on.
I have to make pasta salad for tomorrow. I cooked up some macaroni this morning and promptly forgot about it until i could smell burning and hear a little sizzle coming from the kitche. you don't get desired results when you cook it for 45 minutes! Doh!. I had to make another batch. I got the things go to in it and i'll make it up later so it will be chilled overnight.
I was going to go to a movie but i had two very full bags of groceries and some of it would need to be refrigerated so i came home. I was standing waiting for the bus and my nephew Ryan walked by. He gets off work at 3:30 and we caught the same bus going to Dartmouth and had a nice visit :)
