Garlic Hands
Nov. 2nd, 2007 10:12 amThink I've figured out why I keep thinking I'm hungry. Did prep work for crock-potting French herb chicken this morning, which included smashing a bulb of garlic and peeling it. Even after washing my hands, the aroma still clings faintly to 'em. ^_^ And, hey, dinner will be ready, all the dishes are already washed and put away, save for the rice cooker, the bowl of which I forgot to soak overnight so it's soaking now. All I have to do is wash it, measure a couple cups of brown rice in, and click that at 6:45 and dinner will be ready at 7:30. ^_^ If I'm good I'll mash up the browning bananas and make 'nana bread and muffins too.
Last night my parents had my dad's aunt and uncle over for dinner. It was kind of amusing in that, as Wonderful Husband and I rent from my parents, they showed up at our place first. We're about two miles away from my parents' home, and they still had that as the address. ^_^ So I drew them a map and they got there okay. Wonderful Husband and I, meanwhile, had our hurried curry dinner and went to our dance class before heading over to my parents' for dessert and socializing afterward. Dance class was... deserted. There were the two of us and one woman who comes singly. It was low-key and rather nice. ^_^ Practically a private lesson, but enough not so that it wasn't uncomfortable.
Brought in the remaining Halloween candy today and dumped it in the communal candy drawer. Was amused to hear my coworkers exclaim over it. Maybe they don't have trick'r'treaters in their neighborhoods?

May I request to translate some of them (Hook Man, especially) into Chinese and post in either of these two forums: TFslash (http://lunfanchai.uu1001.com/) or um, LFC (http://lunfanchai.uu1001.com/)? I fully understand if you rather not. Thanks in advance and hope to see more great fics!
