Today is March 27, 2015

No one will read this because no one will know that I've started writing again (maybe only this once, who knows).  In any case, write I will.

I have been working for almost two years now at PS174 as a school secretary.  I still cook, and we go out to eat and now we also go on vacation.

There are days when I have absolutely no desire to go home and cook, so I don't.  I go home, but no cooking.  Lots of naps. Really need the sunshine and warm weather to come back.  Need to plant on my terrace and feel the sun on my face.

Last night I made Spring Carbonara.  Linguine, leeks, garlic, asparagus, fresh peas, pancetta, eggs (6 wow), pecorino romano, salt and pepper.  It was good.  I brought leftovers for lunch today.

Tonight will be Honey Bourbon wings.  Funny story about honey bourbon:  Visiting Mike and Margo in Ithaca, drinking Barenjager Honey Bourbon (not their honey liquer), Michael gets up-we think he's gone to the bathroom, he comes back 20 minutes later (not been in the bathroom) from the liquor store with 6 or 7 airline bottles of all the honey bourbons he could find and we did a taste test, passing the glasses around the table.  We like Barenjager the best! 

I am also going to try my hand at dumplings with a filling similar to roast pork buns.  Desserts will follow:  Banana's Foster Pudding and Monkey Bread (or Pull-Apart Bread).

That's all for now.  Who knows if I'll be back any time soon. xo
