Kale

First of all, I love grocery shopping. Second of all, Lisa and I went today. As I often do, I bought some kale. I know people (well, college kids) think that’s weird, but sautéed with some onions? Delicious. Or curried with rice? Or even just steamed with some plain yogurt on top - it’s yummy.

Cashiers don’t usually know what it is, so they mess around trying to find that little label. Sometimes when they’re taking a long time I just tell them. “Uh. It’s kale.” But today when the cashier lady got to my bag of green stuff she asked, “So... do you have pets?” And then much softer, "Or do you eat it?" I wish so bad I told her I had a herd of rabbits and that I decided to give them dessert tonight. You know, they’ve just been such good little rabbits lately. :)

Anyway. I'm hungry. I think I'll go eat some... some... pet food.

Stormy

Provo is experiencing a mini thunderstorm today. I like it a lot. First even-remotely-cloudy day since her highness arrived. That's me.

Anyway. I'm home "doing homework" and decide to take a picture of this glorious rain. I took a few actually. So I pull the blinds up and I'm pointing my camera at different angles right smack on the window - I'm all into this see. I was trying to do cool close-ups, I don't know. So then I put my camera down and some guy is standing there not ten feet away and looking at me. He's wondering why I'm taking pictures of him. Oh, hello!

But hey. I got a picture.

A Status Report

I haven’t been feeling all that fantastic (that word was amazingly hard to spell. Fantastastatic?) today. In other words, I think I’m getting sick. But don’t panic! I’m all arrayed in comfortable clothes, and I have a mug of delish tomato soup, Kleenexes, and a blanket to accompany me and my textbooks. Recipe for wellness if you ask me. I’m reading about the value and uses of primary sources. I’m also having a hard time getting excited about it. I mean, writing about not getting excited about it is much more exciting. Wouldn’t you agree? Anyway. I intend to snap out of this whole feeling sick thing.

Okay. Snapping. :)
