Today I was creative in three different ways. I wrote, I worked on a mosaic, and I cooked. I also watched birds and walked to the post office. It was a good day, a really good day, especially because I finished the rough draft on the boat proposal.
I grouted my mosaic. I'm still experimenting with this new technique so the mosaic itself really is nothing special, just a random picture frame. I will take a picture when I'm done, if it works.
The new dish I cooked was supposed to be leeks and cheese in phyllo dough. But since I couldn't find any phyllo dough at the grocery store (what kind of a store doesn't have phyllo?) I had to settle for Pillsbury Pop-n-Bake crescent roles. It didn't turn out as I'd hoped it would--not at all flaky. But it wasn't terrible. (Okay, so I ate FOUR of them for dinner.) I've never cooked leeks before. In fact, I'm not sure I really, truly knew what a leek was until today, though I've eaten leek soup. (It's just a giant green onion.)
I'm off to check in on the barn owls, then I'm going to read more of Lisa Gardner's HIDE. Great book so far, one of her best, I think.
Thanks for stopping by,
