Staying in the Loop!

Alright folks, I'm trying Brooklyn one more time. I've got a few days of working by day and partying by night, and then I hit the open road (via Megabus of course).

I can't believe how busy I've been this summer, with good people, good food, and being productive in the most important areas of my life. I even gave my kitchen a bit of a makeover!

Look at all that CSA food! Last night was one of those meals that the rest of my meals should strive to live up to: corn on the cob with butter; baby potatoes with trader joes olive oil and rosemary from my garden; sauteed eggplant with tj's olive oil, on toasted tj's bread with pesto that I also made for dinner, the basil from the garden, arugula from the CSA, pine nuts from the depths of my cabinets, and cheese from tjs. (everything not specified, is from the CSA). Good gosh it was a delicious meal! And I have tons of pesto leftover!

I'm finally doing laundry at Andrew's today, and will make him some sort of lunch-dinner combination while I'm there in return.

I also bought a bike helmet yesterday. Total impulse buy, but I had stopped in the Bike Stable to scope them out, and I always forget that studio-mate Derrick works there, and was so helpful! And now I just have to fix the bike and grow a pair, and I have lots of people who have promised to bike around with me, and I'm really hoping to get comfortable enough for a bike ride to Manayunk with good people in the fall. (What more could anyone want?)

I've been reading some awesome books, and also have finally gotten some Artnews magazines in the mail. Its so important to stay in the loop!
