And by "kind of ready" I mean that I have my summer syllabus versions mostly done, though I'm still trying to decide how to move things around so I don't kill myself or my students with the summer workload. One class runs from June 18th to July 30th, the other from the 18th to August 2nd. It's going to be wild. But it also means I'm not on unemployment this summer, so... yay!
We have continued to eat well. Rae has recently made us:
Chicken and cashew quiches
Spinach salad with currants and pine nuts (I think this was her own creation... it was really awesome.)
Cold shrimp and spinach soup (never had cold soup before... it was good. Nice and refreshing on a warm day.)
Crock pot mustard chicken. This stuff was fantastic. In fact, I'm about to go eat some of the leftovers.
And last night I pan seared some Mahi mahi with olive oil and one of tj's neat salt mixes. (I think it was the tropical pepper one... it was delicious, in any case).
And when lunch is done... I've run out of other things to do, so I guess I should really start reading A Storm of Swords... it's sitting on my bookshelf taunting me. I want to read it because I know there's all kinds of Lannister goodness to be had, (finding out that the very first chapter is a Jaime PoV chapter has been burning me up with curiosity) but I don't want to read it at the same time. ASoS is kind of like There's a Monster at the End of This Book. Except instead of Grover, it's There's a Wedding at the End of This Book. *sigh* I kind of wish I didn't know what was coming, but on the other hand, it's probably good that I do. I can prepare myself with Kleenex and other coping supplies.
