this post might be evidence of my inner fat girl because i feel like i have a lot to say about food. :]
last night, our friend mike asked me what i want to do in hawaii, and i replied "eat pineapple and have lots of shaved ice."
ha.
then i told him i want to go on at least one good adventure, so we discussed a little trip to manoa falls for some hiking.
anyway. today when james and i were at costco, i almost bought a pineapple, but then i remembered how good the last pineapple that mike brought back from hawaii for me tasted, so i passed. i knew it probably wouldn't live up to the last one i had. plus, i wasn't kidding about the eating pineapple while in hawaii thing. i'm planning to have several meals of pineapple, so i think i can hold off for the good stuff.
i bought strawberries instead, and promptly ate a bunch of them when we walked in the door. ha.
this week has been a busy one, but that's to be expected since the semester is coming to an end.
i had my presentation in micro on tuesday. it went pretty well. i always get so worried about presenting, but i need to just remind myself that i have a tendency to hold myself to a higher standard than most other people. everything always turns out well no matter how much i stress over it, so i need to learn not to stress so much.
i also had my last lab. it's just a weird feeling. i got a little sad that i won't see some of the people anymore. i don't remember feeling like that perviously. i guess i'm getting weak in my old age. ha. but there were a couple girls who were just really nice, and i sort of regret that i didn't get to know them better during year. sigh.
even though i had a lot going on, i made time to make cookies on monday night. it had been a while, and i wanted to try out a recipe. i know that i've mentioned one of my favorite local restaurants is the sup. well. they always put a little cookie on your plate, and they are so yummy. so deepa and i were telling the lady how much we love the cookies and she gave us the recipe! so cool. so i tried it out, and the cookies are sooo good. :] they are even a hit with james, which says a lot since he doesn't tend to like sweets at all. i think my mixer was happy to be taken out of the cupboard and put to use again too. ha.
i was supposed to update about the weekend with erin.
we had a lot of fun venturing all over the place downtown after deepa's party. we had tea at seven, made a few stops into imperial, went on an epic search for food, visited with old friends, and had a little dance party at tonic.
and we had the best breakfast.
it had been too long since i'd eaten at peg's for sure. definitely worth rolling out of bed after three hours of sleep to go eat there. :]
it was really nice to spend time with erin again. and she might be getting a job in reno soon, which would be awesome.
anyway. i have a long day at work tomorrow. i guess that means it's time for bed.
