Je suis malade

I was viciously attacked by some sort of cold last week. I decided to stay home from the Glendalough trip to recuperate. Sorry, no pictures. Of Glendalough or the cold.

It's my turn to cook this week, but we'll be eating tomorrow on account of me being in Galway until Sunday night. I've decided to do beef stroganoff and corn tomorrow. For dessert, I'm showing everyone how to make s'mores (unfortunately, we'll have to substitute something for the graham crackers.)

I've actually been getting some hardcore studying done lately. It's all for French though, not really for any of my classes. It's almost been a month since school started and I've had to do one homework assignment the whole time. There are also zero tests or quizzes in class, except for finals.
Not that I'm complaining, of course.

Clubs are starting to pick up. I have my first fencing meeting tonight and my first equastrian meeting tomorrow. I'm particularly excited for these two - I guess they seem more European. Unfortunately, the karate club doesn't seem to be doing anything at all. I might go to the self-defense classes then, since they use some kenpo.

I had Supermacs for the first time this weekend. Their cheese-flavored sauce was delicious. They definately rank above McDonalds and BK, maybe just behind Wendys.

I don't keep too much of a stock of food around. I go shopping every two or three days and just pick up enough for a dinner or two. It's kinda fun. Plus, I can pick up fresh bread everytime I go out (If you ever have a chance to try "Wheaton Farls", take it.)

  1. Josh -- I just googled "Wheaton farls" and guess what the first result was -- this blog! You're famous!

    Whatever wheaton farls are, it would be nice to bring some home to your family for Christmas.

  2. Apparently, it's wheaten farls. Now that Google knows about this mistake, I won't be able to change it.

  3. Whichever it is, what are they?

  4. Perhaps you could learn how to make it and earn your keep when you're home for Christmas.

  5. Have you ever ridden a horse before? Great fun that! Saw the Irish wheaten bread available at an Irish store online. We'll try it when you're home so you can rate it. God bless!

  6. Josh, Uncle Tom can give you some little tips about the places you plan to see in Ireland. No, no money is coming from him but lots of free advice, most of which you don't deserve. I do have Skype and will call you one of these days. Love you and miss you. Don't know why, however.

  7. I've never ridden a horse before, so I'm looking forward to it. I'll be jousting before you know it.
