Aside from taxes (I sent my check to the IRS) and Boston (I am still processing that) nothing much happened today. David was a little tired, and didn’t have much movement in his arm today. Yesterday was so good, but it really does come and go, and if he is tired or not all there, mentally, the movement doesn’t come as easily.
Siobhan came today, and they were talking about something, and she couldn’t figure something out that he was saying. I am hoping that someone who reads this might help. He was telling us about a crepe filling that he didn’t like much and said it started with the letters MO and was six letters. He said it wasn’t a fruit, but was more like a nut (we tried hazelnut and chestnut already). We searched online and looked in Mastering the Art of French Cooking but couldn’t come up with anything. Anyone who sends me the right answer I will send a surprise gift as well as my undying gratitude. WARNING: The letters and number of letters may not be right as well as anything else that I have written above.
I am trying to diet to lose some weight, which is a good thing. My approach this time is to cook different meals for me and David. David had ravioli with pesto tonight, and I had a few slices of pork tenderloin. I also skipped dessert, which might really make the difference!
Tonight, I read the blog and we listened to Julia. She and Paul have moved to Boston (well, Cambridge) and they filmed the pilots for The French Chef for WBGH. They seem to have settled into Boston (alright, Cambridge) like they lived there before, and I have to say, my first visit to Boston when I was in my late thirties (very late thirties), I felt like I had been there before. Everything just seemed like home. At the risk of sounding cliché, thinking of Boston tonight.
