Though I didn’t spend quite as much time as
In making dinner last night, I’ve finally convinced myself that I really DO need some new knives, and it really wouldn’t be a frivolous purchase. (I’ve wanted them for a while, wasn’t sure I could say I needed them.) At a minimum, a new chef’s knife & a santoku knife. I’ve got a couple good paring knives and a good bread knife, but my current chef’s knife just isn’t doing it anymore. There is supposedly a great culinary shop in Old Town but I don’t know the name, nor can I find any kind of directory listing for it… So, I may end up back over at Sur La Table for them, but I’d rather support a non-big-chain business if I can. Guess I’ll find out whenever I can get myself up to Old Town and take a look around.
I’ve had folks ask if all the days tend to run together with the whole unemployed student thing going on. Actually, they don’t and I actually make a point of not letting the week/weekend blindly run together, and I have an amount of structure & routine in my weekdays that surprises even me. Weekdays are for getting stuff done and weekends are for sleeping in and not getting stuff done. (Well, other than laundry & dishes.) Granted, I can get more done during the week now than I did before, which helps the weekends stay “weekends”, but Friday night still has meaning to it in my little world.
