Between soccer, volleyball, guitar lessons, x-country skiing, spending time with the fabulous R, and new projects at work (we're takin' over the government, arrr.. which, put this way, will only make sense to Fel, MB, and MB's brother who laughed when I put it that way), life's been fairly busy. Perhaps a little too busy. I ended up taking yesterday off with a cold and working from home today so as to avoid spreading my cold. It's hard not to think that all that activity was perhaps a little too much and the cold was a way for me to take a little time to slow things down a bit. Tonight, I listened, and took a little time to prepare a simple dinner of Bhuna chicken (ok, from paste), saffron rice, salad with romaine, onion, walnuts, mint, and capers and an olive oil, honey, lime, cayenne pepper dressing. And of course, a classic martini to sip as I enjoyed this. Ah, now that's better.
