Shana Tova to all who celebrate. May we all be blessed with a good, sweet new year.

If I have done anything to hurt or offend any of you in the past year please forgive me, and please tell me what I did so that I can try to fix it.

I made a really awesome experimental carrot-sweet potato-apple tsimmes (turns out it's hard to screw up when making tsimmes) for a shindig tonight and it was cancelled. So now I have a lot of tsimmes. Tsimmes is totally dinner. And desert. But I still need to make pasta to go with the tomato-zucchini sauce I made earlier in the week. So many veggies!!!

(I take great joy in feeding my British housemate yummy Jewish foods. He's never had any of them before and he likes them a lot. Plus, he needs some meat on his bones.)

And now begins the week where I listen to Who By Fire a lot. I heart Leonard Cohen.

It was ridiculously warm out today. 70s in early April. Oh, MA. So of course I took myself and my new boots and I walked all the fuck over Camberville (with plenty of sunscreen on). I went to the bank and then I poked around a bit in Davis and then I hopped on the T and went to the Fresh Pond Whole Foods and the whole time I was listening to Rhett Miller/Old 97s and mouthing along to the words and tapping my feet and being a huge dork in public. So...typical me.

At the Whole Foods I got lots of fresh fruit because I am going to a seder tomorrow (random seders are kind of fun, yo) and I am making a green salad with lots of fruit in and I think it will be super yummy. Also: I totally did the flaky thing and got myself a sandwich with bread for lunch and I bit into it and then was like "you dummy! no bread! oh well. thank you god for freeing me from slavery in Egypt that was awfully thoughtful. and also thank you for the wonderful egg salad sandwich."

And then I came home and my feet hated me (new shoes + my eleventy billion plantar warts = ouch) and then I realized that what I really needed was a nap. So I slept from about 3pm to 6pm and that was kind of...nice. And then I woke up and drank a lot of water.

So...how's by you?

Dear Friday:

I love you. Even if I did wake up at 4:22 in the morning freezing cold and with cramps. I have a space heater and...who needs sleep, really?

somewhat exhausted love,
