Present and accounted for.
I'm still here and alive. I made a tiny wristlet purse thing, embroidered and everything. Maybe someday I'll post pics. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Work is busy. I need a real vacation, though. I'm getting fed up with the paperwork and the bureaucracy. Home is good. We need to pick up the living room (still!), and the place might even be presentable. I'm not going out much at all, so having a clean house might be a good thing. I'm obsessively tracking my finances and food intake; this month I'm planning on getting all my crap onto Ravelry so I can have yet another obsessive tracking habit. And I'm still making dinner, oddly enough.
I read in one of my many many blogs (just hungry)that today is setsubun no hi in Japanland, and that's it's traditional in the Kansai region to eat ehou maki--a big fat uncut sushi roll with seven ingredients. So of course I had to make them for dinner. They were quite tasty. I used fried tofu, enoki mushrooms, sauteed button and birch mushrooms, carrots, green onion, skinny tamagoyaki (thin little sweetened omelette slivers), and long beans (really long green beans). Colorful and healthy, kinda. Woot!
