like a boy

I can bike standing up!!!!! I can PEDAL MY BIKE while standing!!!!!


For the first time ever, I can bike like a boy. That rocks. I feel so good right now.

We had a tomato/onion/basil salad and a beef/roasted pepper/pasta/pesto salad last night for dinner, and I have them again for lunch today...

And we got up at 5:30 (Malaka, I REALLY respect you for doing this every day!) and went swimming. Joy to swimming! I actually felt cold on the bike ride to the pool. It was awesome. It was really great to watch the sun rise while we swam, and I feel pleasantly tired as a result.

This Kamut hot cereal is GOOD. We had it with peaches today. Tasty.

The loop on my belt broke. :( It's lasted really well for a cheap belt from Kensington Market, though.

I'm having a DINNER PARTY on Thursday!!!! I'm so excited. It's a small one (the best kind), just us and another couple. I'm making Asian BBQ wings, cold tofu/veggie/mint spring rolls with a sweet chilli sauce, and mango/passionfruit sorbet.

I'm actually making the sorbet, too! I've never made it before, so this is exciting.

We even went out yesterday and bought new place mats for this special occasion. Eventually I'm going to make my own place mats (I envision quilted multi-oriental-stlye-fabric brightly coloured mats), but we've been waiting until we get back to Canada (and I get a sewing machine). These are nice, though, and will do in a pinch.

Life is good. It feels TOO good. Like - manic good. I'm afraid I'll fall even farther down next time.

haha.. 5:30 is easy, try 4:45 ;) (now you understand why 9pm is my bedtime!)

So glad to hear you say that life is good :D
