I did a bunch of errands yesterday, including laundry which always feels like a small accomplishment, and paying bills and things. Went to the bank to deposit some cash, and worked not quite enough on school work. Dinnertime rolled around as it tends to do, and I realized that I was virtually out of food.
I rummaged through the fridge and found a big portabella cap that somehow I forgot to use. There were a couple green onions in there too, and on the island table thing there was a sweet potato and a bunch of garlic. Bam.
I've been making quinoa in different ways recently, but I like it as a sort of grain-salad side. So I made some:
Threw in some toasted almonds and dried cranberries and a little olive oil and it turned out pretty well. While I was making this, I roasted one of those heads of garlic in the oven.
That portabella went in the broiler with a little cheese and the entire head of delicious roasted garlic. Oh, yeah. It was awesome.
Other things:
-School is more difficult than I remember, but probably good for me to catch up and get with it.
-That, finances, and living situation are stressing me the fuck out right now. It's weird, because I feel like I'm usually pretty cool. Right now though, not so much.
-I'm a little obsessed lately with the take away videos here: http://www.blogotheque.net/-Concerts-a-emporter-?lang=en They're really well done, sound fantastic, and are only a few minutes long. Click on a couple. Be wowed.
