so, although i thoroughly enjoyed teaching this summer session, i am looking forward to a week of re-centering my body and clearing my head. given the aforementioned schedule, the fibro has been an ever-present companion so the more fluid schedule will be a wonderful period of rest and rejuvenation. i am also looking forward to preparing for next summer session and getting back into my research schedule.
today was study day, giving a little taste of what is to come. although it was a day filled with work, i had the delicious opportunity to do it all cuddled up at home...how i miss those graduate school days of working at home in my pink chair...
the day also afforded me the chance to work on my rice paper roll project. i have for some time been determined to make something with rice paper, and after finding this recipe on gluten free scallywag i was doubly inspired! so with only a fleeting sense of confidence, i embarked on this new adventure.
it was very fun and turned out well, especially for my first try. the hardest part was wrapping the rolls in a visually appealing way...and not eating all of them in one breath!


some gluten-free peanut and sweet chili sauce drizzled on top, and all was right with the world...
