Well, there are several reasons for that. I’ve been sick for almost a week now, and although the constant nose-blowing, body aches, and fever are gone, I’ve still got a canker sore gone rogue that’s causing me the most immense pain. (Seriously, my mouth hurts so much I can’t even enjoy eating. And I can enjoy eating when I’ve got the flu.) So it’s been hard to concentrate on anything for longer than two minutes.
I also started a new job last week, and I’m still working at my other job one or two half-shifts a week. I might just have to give that one up though. That certainly wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world. Today the chef called me to ask why I hadn’t made the cheesecake more seasonal. Um, lemon in January is not seasonal? Okay, dude, whatever you say. (To be more specific, I made lemon curd swirled white chocolate cheesecake, with more lemon curd folded into the whipped cream on top. Delicious! And, yes, seasonal, if you can ever call lemons trucked in from 2000 miles away “seasonal”.)
Oh, and in other sad news, my favorite Indian place in town has apparently closed. Too bad, since they were the best place for kadai paneer and they had the friendliest servers at any restaurant I’ve ever been to. That spot must be doomed.
