Lazy Weekend

July 15th, 2013 at 03:34 am

It's been a good weekend so far. The only money I spent was on paying for my glasses (will be ready in two weeks), groceries, and $4 at Kohl's (was using a gift certificate there).

I also resisted the temptation to gamble. I wanted to, but I resisted, and it went away. I hope I am successful every single time I try to resist.

It was quite a social weekend. On Friday night, my best friend took me out to a belated birthday dinner. We spent an hour and a half talking at the restaurant, and then went for a walk around the neighborhood. On Saturday, we hosted a potluck. I made some Indian food with ingredients I already had at home - no extra money spent. My partner (henceforth to be referred to as "D") got some wine and beer. Everyone brought lots of food, and we have lots of leftovers for the week. The plan this week is to eat up everything we have in the fridge before we go out of town on Thursday.

    I would love to learn how to cook Indian food. If you were near Sacramento I would pay for lessons!

    Thanks, Kiki. Indian cooking isn't as intimidating as it might seem. It's quite easy and there are lots of easy recipes on various websites. If I lived in Sacramento, I would be happy to give you lessons for free. It's always more fun cooking with someone else. And eating with someone else too. :-)

    Rob - thanks. I know - I want to keep doing it!

    You should post some of your easier Indian food recipes. I've made Naan, paneer, and tandoori chicken and would love to increase my knowledge base of Indian food.
