thanksgiving

Most everyone is gone, so I don't have much off-hand to give thanks for. It's mostly people, anyway: Kiriko, Miyake-sensei, Pronko-sensei and his wondeful productions, the opportunities I've had, Yamashita-sensei and his amazing classes with their excruciating tests, my parents who almost always understand and make it all better...

So many other people that i'm not going to list because that would take up way too much space and time...

Tchaikovsky...

I love you all, people.

Yumness

Chicken is good. Rice is good. So are the right kind of vegetables.

Assuming I go to the store again tomorrow, I think I'll be making first apple, and then pumkin, pie. Spreading the season out over the days, you know.
