a peek inside the fishbowl

These are some of the shells I brought back from my trip to Jamaica. I keep them on my kitchen windowsill. It’s nice to hold a piece of the beach in my hand, and to see it every day.

I’m feeling rather uninspired today, as I did yesterday and the day before. It was the funeral. It knocked the wind out of me.

Mark has been flat-on-his-back-sick for the last few days. I’m just about to take the girls skating, in hopes of cheering myself up. I have a feeling it’s not going to work.

All I really want to do is curl up on the couch under a heap of blankets and read until I can read no more.

Gah.

So, how did they turn out?

(You get to hear my kooky laugh too. Wow. Do I really sound like that?)

This recipe is from Jessica Seinfeld’s cookbook, Deceptively Delicious. Here’s a link to an interview with the author, and the recipe is here. It’s a keeper for sure. (No matter what Emma says.)

I would love to get my hands on the book. Who has a copy? And do you like it? (More importantly, does it work?)

Heh heh. I will let you know how they turn out. ;)
