Ain't No Sunshine
I hate daylight savings day with a passion I usually save for manicured lawns. Last week it was so nice go to to work as the sun was going up. Even when it was raining and foggy, there was still that light in the air. And the sounds of geese and some kind of songbird. It just helps me start the day on the right food. Puts a little of the Giselle 'Happy Working Song' in my heart.
Now it is dark and dreary again. Boo.
This weekend I went to the Portland Indiana Fiber Fest, and got a bunch of yarn. I missed the sheep shearing, but I did get to pet an angora bunny. My Japanese coworker made me promise to take pictures (he's a fabulous photographer) and I'm glad he did, because I'm pretty pleased with the shots I got at the festival and of my new yarn. Which I put up on my Flickr.
Sunday was mostly spent cooking. Well, no, a lot of it was spent thinking about cooking, and very little effort was spent on the actual. But I did make scones, egg salad and some kind of chicken that looks nothing like what was on the sauce packet. I do love egg salad. But it has to be made with Japanese Kewpie mayo. It makes all the difference for some reason. I think maybe it's got a higher egg content than American mayo, so it really just makes the egg taste even eggier. Or maybe my inner weeaboo is showing. Man, is it lunch time yet? I'm hungry all of a sudden.

Another month to wait on the Sun. Yay for a better day tomorrow. Don't fail me, nice weatherman!
