Laundry. Breakfast at home: my favorite breakfast, mixed in some frozen basil with the eggs. Recently I bought some Dorot spices from Trader Joe's. I like the spices, but I dislike the packaging because it's not easy to open and close and it's not easy to remove the spice cube. I added a frozen cube to a hot frying pan and the moisture in the cube made it spatter small bits of basil all over the range and wall—a big mess. So now I know these might be better defrosted in the microwave or on the counter before using for frying. They are very convenient especially for single people who cannot use large bunches of herbs before they rot. Web work for Recharge. Edited and uploaded photos from Asia trip. Lunch: tortilla chips with hummus with roasted pine nuts, leftover veggie pizza, hot water. Read more from Patrick's draft of a new novel. Folded laundry. Nap. Dinner at home: mostly organic rice noodle soup with cabbage, broccoli, trumpet mushrooms, miso, soy sauce, black sesame seeds, sesame oil, ginger, garlic. Watched Cazwell videos from Watch My Mouth on DVD. Edited and uploaded photos. Read more from Patrick's draft of a new novel.
