eggplant and bananagrams

tonight, i took advantage of taylor's work-through-dinner schedule to make myself a spicy-as-heck meal.  he puts up with my over-spicing ridiculously well, and i've learned to tone-down the hot sauce... a little.  but tonight i went all out.  with my sauteed summer squash and greens, i added more than half a fresh jalapeno.  and salsa. of course.

yum.
reading animal, vegetable, miracle has me dreaming about heirloom seeds and fresh food.  i can't wait to decide what to do with the eggplant in my refrigerator.  even if life gets dull, food will never.

i took a long hiatus and now it's several hours later.  after spewing all the information i just learned about genetically modified foods onto my husband's plate, i've now filled my quota for the day's stimulating conversation.


also i want to play more games.  tonight was bananagrams.  chess and carcasone are on the upcoming menu.


the last few weeks have been a little rough in texas.  we've hit some unexpected speed bumps and the emotional tires are still recovering... or just adjusting, maybe.  but we've had good food (even if rationed).  and we've played good games.  and we're good company to each other, taylor and me.


tonight, it's time for bed.  tomorrow holds an early run, lots more job applications, the promise of an adventure in the fridge (in the form of an eggplant), and probably the repairs of the oven, the shower, aaaand the windshield.  finally.


all that calls for some good sleep.  may your night be restful and your eggplant as exciting as mine is.


'night!
