I made chocolate covered strawberries again tonight. This time I used a slightly darker chocolate. It's not quite as smooth, but it's more firm when you bite into it. I also dipped some of them in chopped almonds. *Sigh* I know that chocolate-covered strawberries aren't, strictly speaking, good for you. But there's something about them that's like baking. There's something deliberate and patient and sumptuous about them.
I've been here two months now, and all I can think is: "Wow, it feels a lot longer than two months. " (c:
The drama classes I taught for the last two months finally had their performance on Saturday night. Afterwards they made me go up onstage and get my picture taken with all the classes and then with all the kids and their parents. I don't really have words for how awful it was. I did reflect that maybe it serves me right - it probably doubled the number of photos that exist of me. It's funny how much I just feel like a white performing monkey. Oh well, it's passed.
I cut my hair today. It came out okay. Miriam did a really good job of giving me a base to work with, so I've just been trimming it periodically, but the ends were really dry and driving me crazy, so Alex (one of the other teachers) cut off about three inches today and then I layered it. I think I'm going to use this time to grow out my bangs and see how I feel about it. Input is always welcome.
Goodnight, please remember how much I love all of you!
