More Holiday Food

Among the many yummy things we noshed on at my dear aunt's house was ambrosia, frozen in individual silicone cupcake molds, and brought out for several meals.

I suppose my grandmother would have called this dessert, but it's salad in my book!

Holiday Food


As is fitting for my family, a lot of the holiday centered around food. We were making some stops on the way home from the airport, and when we passed Rubio's, my aunt said we could pop in there.

And of course, Rubio's = Fish Tacos. Maybe not the best I've ever eaten, but still, I'm loath to pass up a fish taco wherever I find one.

Here's Mom at Rubio's:

On Holiday

Being on holiday means one has time to do things like eat a sliced nectarine for breakfast (shown here on my new Fiesta Dinnerware).


Of course, by now the holiday is only a sweet memory, but it's a good one.

Revelations

A couple of weeks ago, I learned three surprising facts all in the same day:
  • My dear friend M bought and moved into a condo this summer.
  • My brother A2 just finished playing a season of indoor soccer.
  • My coworker J knows how to both knit and crochet.
Granted, none of the three facts are that shocking. The surprise of the first two is just that I didn't know about them until after the fact. As for J, he's male, so the fact that he's skilled at needle arts is a bit unusual (but totally cool).

What else am I in the dark about?

Deep Breath

Back at work. Trying to take it easy (that's not hard to do). If I don't work too hard, maybe my mind won't realize I'm back at work. Or at least, that's the plan.

More about vacation soon.
