brrrr. i keep waiting for it to get just a couple of degrees warmer, before i go on a little run.<\/p>\n
i\u2019m really just trying to avoid it. but this is going to be the warmest day this week (with a high, theoretically, of 35). but at least most of the snow is gone, and hopefully it won\u2019t come back at all this year.<\/p>\n
one of the things i was doing to try to avoid running yet is look for lapsang souchong tea online. it\u2019s a delicious kind of tea that we found when we were in arizona, if i recall. i don\u2019t know why we bought it; maybe it\u2019s because there was loose tea and we smelled it and it smelled delicious. it\u2019s very smokey. no, i know where we first had it – at Incredibly Delicious, downtown. we found a box of it here in spfld somewhere one time, but every time we go to the store we look for it now and can\u2019t find it anywhere.<\/p>\n
i found it online, of course, and it was a reasonable price, until they added in the shipping, which doubled the price and that seemed ridiculous, since of course the tea would weigh almost nothing. so i have to think of another way to get some of the good stuff. perhaps some other online tea store would have free shipping, or at least shipping that\u2019s not that expensive.<\/p>\n
as you can see, things are very very busy around here. <\/p>\n
i\u2019m looking forward to friday night, when we\u2019re going to take a sushi-making class at the pasfield house. it\u2019s an old house that a guy turned into a b&b, i think, except there was no breakfast because there was no kitchen, but now they\u2019ve added a fancy kitchen so lincoln land community college is having a few cooking classes.<\/p>\n
maybe i\u2019ll learn some sushi-making techniques, although i already know how to make sushi rolls but they\u2019re very messy and i bet there\u2019s a better way to do it, because i just learned by reading about it and lots of trial and error. it\u2019s not going to be a very hands-on class, but just watching somebody do it will be helpful. it\u2019d also be helpful to find out if there\u2019s anyplace in town where you can actually buy sushi-grade fish, so i wouldn\u2019t just have to use fake crab. but i guess, really, that if you can get sushi-GF, you\u2019d get it at robert\u2019s seafood because i think that\u2019s the only game in town.<\/p>\n
anyway, sushi, making sushi, it all sounds good.<\/p>\n
except deep winter isn\u2019t really the prime time for eating sushi. right now is more about hot soup. which i may make later in the day, if i can actually get around to doing other things.<\/p>\n
i really want to see some oscar-nominated movies. randy REALLY REALLY wants to go see some of them, and my desire isn\u2019t that great. i wish that more happy, entertaining, funny movies were nominated, because “the last king of scotland,” except maybe that\u2019s not the right title, and “babel” and that martin scorcese movie don\u2019t look exactly lighthearted.<\/p>\n
we did rent “anchorman” over the weekend and it was quite funny. written by and starring will ferrell, who is a very funny and silly man. at one point there was a big battle with different local news teams, and the group included ben stiller, luke (or maybe it was owen) wilson, tim robbins, and vince vaughn. funny guys.<\/p>\n
but that of course made me think about the dearth of funny women in movies. there are some of them, but when was there a movie with cameos by a bunch of funny women? <\/p>\n
but it was entertaining. but never nominated for any awards at all, i believe.<\/p>\n
no more excuses, must go out in the cold weather and run. a little bit. a very little bit.<\/p>\n
ok then,<\/p>\n
monday morning grace, feeling very productive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
