The List of Awesome

Originally Uploaded here by kuriakonz
- I went to Bishop's on Friday for my grandmother's birthday. I had local prawns with a creamy dipping sauce and chips for an appetiser, five spice roasted duck breas with sweet potato purée, roasted parsnips, and apple emulsion with a side of mixed herbed and purple gnocchi, and vanilla rooibos crème brûlée for desert. FOODGASM! The other nice bit was that I think that all the food on my plate travelled no furter than 50 kilometers to get to my plate and was all organic. I love that man.
- I went out for Ethiopian cuisine at Addis with Erin, Graham, and Tillie on Saturday. It is very cool, no cutlery, you eat with the bread and, in the end, eat the plate. OMGz.
- Sin City this month was possibly the greatest Sin City ever. Not only that, but within ten minutes my dancing was complemented, which is the fastest ever. It did help that it came from a well-built, attractive man, with a positively intoxicating accent. Then, it happened again later in the night. Groove I was in, much awesome dancing was had.
- Cello is going well. One of the strings broke, but the humour value of the fact that the cello needs a g-string is, in many ways, worth the expense.
- I actually have direction and focus for my thesis now, this makes me giddy. I'm redoing someone else's research with a new data set, I'm officially a real academic now :P
- I know it is far away, but I am soooo excited about Shambhala this year.

I have the best Shambhala idea ever! Who has the tipi? We need it for the festival.

Fah, no roiboos or vanilla is grown locally, even assuming some other kind of sweetener. ;)

I would have been able to keep pace with you last night had it not been for the sharp pain alike to a knife in between my shoulderblades starting at 11:30. But my oldboy skills kept me going despite, I'm glad you appreciated the lift 'n toss.

To Erin:
Good point, I was trying to think of something on my plates that came from far away and I didn't come up with any. The sweeteners and infusion ingredients would do it though.

That is an awfully good idea, I will chat with Angus about it (I have access to all the tipi parts).
