Good morning, Kittens!It's been a gray and dreary past few days. The kind of day thatmakes one want to curl up on the sofa under a blanket with hot tea and cheesy movies.
Yesterday, I managed to drag myself off of the sofa and to pottery studio in the afternoon. It was not a very successful day. I had an image of what I wanted to make, but couldn't quite realize it ...
Instead, I ended up with this juglikepitcherything:
On the way home, I met up with my friend, Mario (remember him, David?). He had taken a pottery class earlier in the year and had nearly half a bag of clay leftover ... which he gave me! Free clay! YAY!
Once home, I did laundry and made dinner: tofu and broccoli in a ginger, lime, garlic, and tequila sauce. Then, K-factor came down and we watched Rachel Getting Married ... which was really good (but about 15 minutes too long).
Today, I must do *more* cleaning ... and work on some government applications ... and, tonight, Eric from Baltimore is coming down! Tomokito will join us for dinner. Then, Eric and I will head into DC for a late night cocktail hour with friends.
Fun times! Have a wonderful day!
*smooches*
what, no shout-out for dr. mel's 40th birthday?
ReplyDeletesounds like you are going to have a great day/night! hoist a cold one for me!
I have to clean my room, make the bed, finish the babies' laundry, AND pack to go home. Boo to this dreary weather.
ReplyDeleteCocktails, yum! Happy 40th Dr. Mel!
ReplyDeleteMMMMMMMMMario.
ReplyDeleteBossy agrees about Rachel Getting Married. She felt like she had attended the actual rehearsal dinner, oh my.
ReplyDeleteI also agree that Rachel Getting Married was excellent -- Joe and I loved its high level of ambiguity. Am curious to know which part was too long -- or should each scene have been a smidge shorter? The awkwardness and versimilitude (word?) of the rehearsal dinner scene was the best, I think. The brother element was very very sad.
