Winter is here!

I don't even know how to describe my feelings for winter. Maybe you mistook my Winter is here heading as positive, you'd be wrong....not only am I not cut out for cold weather but I detest being so pale and seeing no sunshine. Sunshine always brightens my day and my basil that I'm growing...and my poinsetta that I still have! So today, it started snowing at like 12 while we were at lawschool. It started out light but definately accumulated more than I could expect and apparently more than the city did because when we got out at 3:45 the roads were horrible. I couldn't see the lanes, I couldn't get out of the parking lot, and when I finally got on the road I inched forward little by little. What normally is a 5 minute drive took me an entire hour! An hour...really? Oh boy, by the time I got home, I was actually hot from setting in my car in my hat, scarf and gloves....uh oh Gilmore Girls is on....I'll be blogging later!

My cooking

So, last night I decided to cook, because well frankley I hadn't cooked for a long long time. So anways...you wanna know what I made? Well of course you do! Well I was going to make osso buco sometime--but I thought it was lamb and it's veal...opps! So anways, I made grilled lamb chops. I'm guesisng my family wouldn't really like this because ...because it's lamb. However, I also made some great mashed potatoes. I saw some of the laughing cow cheese in my fridge and added two traingles to a stick of butter and the taters. They were smooth and I didn't even have to use my hand mixer! I also made prosciutto peas...what this entails is garlic in olive oil for like 5 minutes then I added the peas until cooked through and then i added some diced prosciutto. YUM! If you really do like lamb I could give you the paste I made...it included 1 TBS fresh rosemary (which I started growing but only have 1 spout), 1/2 tsp sea salt, 2 TBS olive oil, a pinch of caynne pepper, a tsp thyme leaves, 2 cloves of garlic. Then I cooked them...

I can't wait for the weekend! So ready because I feel like I'm sleep deprived and running on little to no energy. I did send out some resumes and cover letters today ---but still need to send out more....Any ideas? Well...my head is tired of thinking and frankly typing takes too much concentration....Can't wait for Jesse's fried fish!
