Monday - Sunny and warm

I went to bed rather early last night, so managed to get up on time this morning quite easily. I had a quiet morning, I had breakfast and then got dressed. I was ready when the taxi pulled up so went off to work.

My class went well today and it was a little sad to say goodbye to the students.  I caught my taxi afterward and I got back to the house. I said hello to K and then went upstairs.

I mostly relaxed this afternoon, apart from doing a little paperwork. I did watch a Kenneth Branagh film, All is True. It was a little slow, but okay.  Around 5:30 I went downstairs to start getting dinner underway. I had already taken out the eggs earlier to warm up. I was making a quiche. While I was gathering things up, I noticed the empty milk carton sitting on the side of the sink. Oh no! Sure enough, K had drunk all of the milk. I fired off a text to F asking him to pick up more milk. He called me back a couple of minutes later and said he would do it for me. 

I got on with the making. I precooked the mushrooms and the bacon, chopped up the spinach, and even beat the eggs. I just needed F to bring me some milk!

He arrived and he did bring us some milk.  He went upstairs to rest and I got back to work. A few minutes later I had the quiche in the oven. The pan I used was bigger than the space in the oven, so it was banging on the sides for a bit, but I turned it around so it was better. Of course, I had to open the oven to do that.

I got the rest of the dinner ready while it was baking. I put things on the table and when the quiche cooked in the oven, I did dishes and cooked the rest of the mushrooms. 

I texted F to come down and got the table set.

Dinner was quite good. We had quiche, salad, fried mushrooms, and some beets, plus miso soup. We all had seconds on the quiche, just not as much as the first time.

After dinner, I cleared the table and did the dishes. It didn’t take too much time. I had time to listen to Canadian news and a chapter of Pride and Prejudice. When I finished I just went upstairs. I didn’t say bye to anyone, I just needed to relax longer.

At 11 pm I watched The Good Wife. We just started season 6 and it was quite chilling. I haven’t seen these episodes yet.

F went to bed a bit earlier. I’m up later than I should be, but no worries. I do work tomorrow but in the evening.

I’m now blogging and watching a little bit of YouTube. I’ll go to bed soon and start all over again tomorrow morning!

So, please come back later if you like to read all about my day. Until tomorrow….
