I have a saved post that I began working on at the end of March, filled with nougat-y goodness and rich caramel, and I have my notes for it right next to me, but for as much as I thought about the material--big, wordly thoughts inspired by me sitting around in the apartment all day--I haven't really been able to get into it. I can't always concentrate too long on very much these days, what with keeping myself somewhat tense and stressed about the job search (and the economy), but getting back into writing could help that.
Here's hoping inspiration hits soon. For now, two five-item lists:
I. Good things I've made in the kitchen lately:
1. Flan
2. Strawberry-Sour Cream Ice Cream
3. Tonkatsu with SE Asian-marinated pork leg cuts
4. Chicken Saltimbocca
5. Pecan Tarts
II. Things that are keeping my sanity level:
1. The cats
2. Social time (in live, digital, and telephonic forms)
3. Regular sleep
4. Bicycling
5. Summer fruits (this week's selection: plum varieties)
Seriously, somebody give me a topic to cover before I start rambling about the poor A.I. in EA games... I'm academically institutionalized: I do well with assignments. Especially if you provide a structure and a deadline.
Here's to a bright future:
