A Whole Wack of Recipes

Yesterday I took the milk run up to my parents. I was nice enough to take my neice, Christin, up to Meaford, unfortuntely it is miles out of my way and took forever. Sorry to say, but I don't think I'll be doing that again any time soon. I don't think it would have been as bad if we could have left earlier in the day. We left at 2:30 and the traffic on the DVP and the 401 was already starting to get bad. Though I have to admit the traffic on the 400 was no where near as bad as I thought it was going to be, except for the cop who was tailing me for 20 min(and no I was not speeding - for once), there wasn't much of a hassel. Earlier in the day I managed to get down to the school and drop off my form so that I can take my Anthropology 100 exam in the accessiblity office where I get an adjustable desk, can use my Obus, take breaks and even take drugs...(Advil or Tylenol you guys). The only real downer is that the exam is on a Tuesday night, from 7-9pm but shouldn't be too hard as it is all multiple choice... mmmmm 1st year courses.... and if anyone is wondering... no I haven't been to anymore classes and don't plan on it in the future... I'll be going to my two tutorials and the exam thank you very much. Michelle also came over before I headed out for town and we (here it comes - as Michelle pointed out I always mention something about the d o g) took Murphy out to the park, stopping at the Tim's to get much needed coffee on the way there. Between the 2 of us Murphy played with his frisbee, which Michelle was returning as she managed to take it home with her on Wed., for half an hour. I have to admit that my dog is quite comical. While we were playing he would take the frisbee to Michelle even though I had the frisbee glove and was throwing it for him, and of course when Michelle was throwing it he would bring it to me. He does love his crack, I mean frisbee. And of course he is just so hard done by. The play wore him out a bit and he was very well behaved in the car on the very long drive up north. Today I managed to get some errands done. Picked up some new coaxial cable for my TV, new printer cartridge and some new fleecy pants... mmmmmmm fleecy....... tomorrow before I leave I'll pick up some groceries to take back with me. Í really need to do groceries... especially now that I have just copied a bunch of recipes from my dad's French and Italian Light cook books. Lots of yummy things, lots of things with garlic in them... mmmmmm garlic..... I guess one of these days I will have to get ambitious and invite some people over for dinner, might have to wait until I get a new couch, so I have somewhere for people to sit. Of course I don't know if people would want to come for dinner if they knew I was cooking ;ppppppp I can cook believe it or not. I think this week I might try Michelle's recipe for Irish Stew, my mom gave me a great tip for this sort of thing. Instead of leaving it on the range (since I don't have a slow/pressure cooker) I could put it in the oven with a lid and do it that way. It won't be any faster but it will work just the same and it will not stick to the bottom of the pan. So we shall see if this works or not.
