I firmly believe something my techie sister told me several years ago, and that is that calories you eat outside your own country don`t count. I would add that fried foods don`t clog your arteries and Clorox used overseas doesn`t hurt the environment because these are all things I`m doing now that I wouldn`t dream of doing at home. My clothes are dingier, my food is never fried and I hardly ever eat things made with cheese at home. Here, what isn`t made with cheese, and darned if I`m going out with grey looking whites next to all of those spiffy looking tourists on the beach. I`ve even bought a box of Mac and Cheese, which I don`t think I`ve ever done, period, let alone in Dayton NV. I`ve not gotten up the nerve to actually cook it, but I will.
We`re eating a lot of seafood, and I mean fresh seafood. It doesn`t smell at all, so you know it`s fresh. I got some little scollops for some silly price the other day, which made me smile. When I run out of seafood, then out comes the Mac and Cheese.
I`m really enjoying my art class. It`s outside, under the portico roof, which is so enjoyable. I think I´ll try and get some plein air, or outside painting classes going when I get back. People come through selling very good cookies, we can buy tea and tacos from the resturant next door. Mark, (my Carson City art teacher), why can`t we expand our menu to include some cookies as well as popcorn? Not that there`s anything wrong with popcorn, you understand.
It`s time to climb the 78 steps up the hill home. I`ve found a place to get my hair cut and now I just have to get up the nerve to do it. Richard keeps making comments which make me believe it`s past the time when I should take the big step. That`s 65 steps and another hill down the other side so maybe I`ll make that appointment tomorrow. Mañana, you know.
