elfie_chanIt's been a good day.
This morning, I went to class. My first class was boring, as usual. My second class meant that I got my midterm back. I got an A. I am pleased, though I am still going to talk to my teacher about some points she took off. I mainly want to know why so I won't make the same mistakes on the final. Still, As are quite acceptable.
After class, we went off to Gray's and bought a couple of trees. One is a Japanese Red-Leafed Maple that just glows. The other is a Redbud. Both will probably get planted tomorrow.
After that, Alex and I did a little grocery shopping, and then we came home and relaxed for a little while. Then, we made dinner. Stew and garlic bread, plus a glass of very good red wine. I haven't gotten the stew yet (we got started late, and stew must cook for at least two hours), but it smells more delicious every time I lift the lid to stir it. The garlic bread has been delicious.
It's so nice to be able to cook dinner together. We've been cooking at home a lot more often lately, and I like that better than going out in most circumstances. Cooking together is definitely a bonding experience. Also, I didn't have to chop the humongous shallots that went into the stew, so no teary eyes for me! Mwaha.
Stew in ten minutes. I can't wait.
