    I guess that's consolation for last night, eh?

    Today is a mishmash of small town rituals for me. Looking forward to it. It's always fun.

    I love it when I can track a flight and know Tt made it safely to his destination, even before he calls.

    I think I need to come to terms with the fact that coffee consumption is an unavoidable occupational hazard.

    Super Baba (Great grandmother) is in the states. I am sooooo excited to meet her. I don't speak Japanese and she doesn't speak English. We're still going to have an AWESOME time.

    Baba and Super Baba are picking up BabySquirrel from daycare this afternoon.

    Whoa...a serious misapplication of a metaphor. This is why you hire an editor.

    Guinness chocolate cheesecake for Thanksgiving potluck tomorrow -- done.
    Deep-fried Sous-Vide 36-Hour All-Belly Porchetta for Monday night's dinner -- in the water bath
    Green Curry paste for Monday night's dinner -- done

    Still to do: Buy coconut milk and fish for the curry.

    It's good to be in the kitchen again.

    Passing my morning reading tweets of the Great American Beer Festival's award ceremony. It's like the Oscars for beer. I've got my fingers cross for some of our local entrants, as apparently just getting beers into competition this year was exceedingly difficult.

    I think I'll spend a bit of time writing this morning before football starts and I feel motivated to clean the house.

    My days have become "the things I need to get done before I can watch more episodes of Once Upon a Time." (Don't judge.)

    When my friend's mother came to visit from China last year we used a translation app. It was fun, we laughed a lot. :D

    Japchae Very Tilted

    No running water this morning. No idea why. It's in the mid-50s, I just finished yoga and have about 30m to get ready for my first day of post doc... And I really hope we have running water when I get home. I didn't wash my hair yesterday. *sigh*

    Another great thing about living in Toronto? I can order a book online late Friday night and choose the free standard shipping option, and it will still arrive before midday on Monday.
