it’s official! becca and i are going to visit karen from september 6 until september 15. we fly from houston to london heathrow via chicago. from there, we’ll take the train to cranfield, meet up with karen, and pile into the little purple car for a road trip into scotland. the only definite stops so far, i believe, are edinburgh and the orkney islands. but seeing as how those two are not exactly next to each other, there will be other stops along the way.
last night my apartment hosted its first dinner party! i say my apartment hosted because, well, i wasn’t the one doing the cooking, i was only the one offering the kitchen and eating space. nick came over after work and made a lebanese dish called majadarrah (sp?), salad, pasta, and even some chicken for those who didn’t like majadarrah. becca, julia, debbie, curt, and sara all came over to eat, and it was great fun. i felt so adult-like. 😉 i even had all the right pots and pans and dishes and everything, even though i don’t really have enough places to everyone to sit. we just sat in the chairs i had and on the couch.
i’m being paged for lunch.
