This weekend’s been so good, it’s impossible to not have the Sunday blues a little bit. Sunshine. Crisp, cool air. Uncharacteristically blue skies. No where to be. Nothing to do for a change. There’s a warm, autumnal vibe in London. It makes me happy to be here.
Here’s a summary of some really happy things that I’ve enjoyed these past few days. Reading through them I see they mostly revolve around food, but no surprises there….
- Made my first batch of homemade soy yogurt with soy milk and a spoonful of dairy yogurt - the results were successful if, that is, you don’t mind the taste of soy yogurt
- Enjoyed the arrival of apple season by indulging in a few of my favorite apples, the Egremont Russet
- Went to a gastropub for some fairly average tall food with some way better than average people
- Decided more or less that I want to move on from London before Christmas 2009
- Started a soughdough starter with water and rye flour
- Enjoyed some of the sunniest (and coolest) weather of autumn by walking around Clissold park a few times, cycling to the pub, and sitting on the couch by the window
- Cooked two recipes from the Rasa cookbook, a mung bean curry and savoy cabbage - both dishes made us go “mmmm”
- Rethemed the SmarterFitter blog, with the addition of a few monetizing features, plus a couple blog posts
- Listened to Neil Young’s Prairie Wind
a few times in a row
- Decided that Wordpress is “the business” and set up a DB for the wordpressified spacekadet blog of the future
- Watched the Science of Sleep
- Started A Million Little Pieces
- Took a few pictures
- Decided no more chores on the weekend
