Last night was so much fun! I havent had that kind of fun in Adelaide for a long time! We went to Salt at Glenelg, and while the food was very nice, the atmosphere was a bit full on. There was a big wedding party in, and half the restaurant in a bar so there was a real night club feel to it as well. we just wanted a quiet space for a good catch up…. Never again will i confuse ‘intimate’ with ‘quiet’. Still, there was quite a bit of goss to go round….

Today im taking it slow, ive just been out to the supermarket to buy as many vegies as my little arms can carry, and tonight im cooking up a storm that will last me thru to Wed i hope: green lentil and brown rice pilaf with onions (oops, forgot the yoghurt), roast vegies with mint sumac and garlic (for tonight and for sandwiches), and pumpkin and spinach mild coconut curry. Yum. I think by the time its all done I will be full just from the smells!

On a different note, im having a bit of an ideas fest at the moment. I’ve always been interested in the way the brain works, and while i was surfing around in the latest batch of Ted Talks i found this talk from neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor and how a massive stroke helped her better understand brain function.

I love the way she uses her whole body throughout the 20 min presentation, and the description of the two personalities in us seems intuitively right. I found it quite amazing!

  Yep, Saturday night was fun! I called Andrew when I got in, and the party was just beginning at a neighbour’s house - so off I went until 6am… Well had the drinking won over the admittedly sexy shoes, I would have danced with you until then I’m sure!
