Experimentation

I am back to the normal life of doing laundry, cooking, & working hard…oh you know, the usual things when I have to be independent.  No longer do I have joy to eat delicious mommy’s food or watching her completely-mastered-clothe-folding-skills.  It just has been a series of dumb mistakes and avoidance of house chores since I’ve been back on Sunday.

Okay – I really have not been that bad.  I did do laundry.  I did cook.  I did work hard.  I have not made dumb mistakes, yet.

I’m still living the life of tornado warnings and awfully-quiet workplace [if you haven’t noticed, I work at a university…now we are on summer break].  I still miss  having people around me all the time, but my  friend Yolanda has been a great company these days.  I do miss you all though, Oh family! Ha ha.

Because I am anticipating Z’s arrival this weekend, I am experimenting with cooking.  Well, Z has always been a better cook than I have, but I’ve been trying my best to meet the par.  That will never happen, but we shall see. 

Since I moved to this apartment, I have become more interested in cooking.  Although, I come to realize that I am not a recipe-follower.  Just can’t do it.  So, I make my own version of everything.  Sometimes good, sometimes…eh.  I seriously cannot wait to make Z my guinea pig. :)
