A bit of adventure...

... but not too much.  Mostly it's just been work around here.  I'm going to present a paper at a conference in Nairobi next week.  So I've been busy getting things finished up here so I can go, but also getting my paper and presentation ready.  Plus, I feel like I've been engaged in a lot of domestic chores lately.  I cooked a lot of meals last week.  And even baked some cake.  I think I'm starting to get a bit bored of the usual "garlic bread and tomato salad" fare that we generally eat around here.  So I've had to work a bit to get other things cooked so I could eat something different.  And not that I'm complaining, but I tend to get hungry faster and care more about what I eat than my housemate.  So when 6:30pm comes around, my housemate is still poking around doing whatever, and I'm so hungry I feel like I could eat a horse.  So guess who starts cooking...  And then since I'm cooking already, what's a little more food to feed Sean and Richard, too. 

Last night we invited our new neighbor over for some food, and it was really quite a nice meal.  It's just good to share food with good friends.  I'm feeling like it's about the only thing I do for fun around here anymore!

Other than play my Wii Fit since I've been doing all this eating...

It's also been raining quite a bit, so it's rather humid and muddy around.  Not too conducive to wanting to get out to walk or anything :( 

Right. On that note, it's 6:15, my belly is growling, and there's nothing being done about supper.  So.  I'm off to the kitchen.  I'll let you know how it turns out.
