More Shopping and Cooking (1 Comment)
We shopped for four (count them- 4!) hours yesterday. I didn’t whine, nor whimper. I was a trooper.
Trying on clothes is not for the faint of heart when you don’t have a perfect body. I do not and it was terrifying. I prefer baggy to cover the flaws but I am told that is just not how it is done these days. Of course, when it’s someone else’s body we tend to make allowances and I had to place my trust in my Friend- hoping she wasn’t making me look like a teen wanna-be but a sophisticated stylish 40 somethingish. What is it with these low cut pants? She says they are here to stay (for awhile at least). I wore some and it felt like my pants were falling down all day but they wouldn’t come up any farther when I yanked on them. Oh, the indignities of fashion.
I don’t have the prerequisite number of shoes but I am way over my money limit so that will mean I will have to go without. I have TONS of sandals/ heels that she is giving me anyway. It remains beyond me why one has to have so many but that is a subject for another post.
I made General Toa’s Tofu Stir Fry last night. It was yummy. I have not cooked with tofu before or, to my recollection, eaten it before. So it was a whole new experience. It was good so I may have to try more of it. A must with this recipe is to double the sauce. There simply would not be enough of it otherwise.
Today is the pedicure. I’m looking forward to it.
…and my question is, why do most shirts not make it to the top of said pants, even when you are only of average height? I try to look reasonably up-to-date, but til recently it has been hard to avoid flashing 162 undergrads when I reach up to point at something during a lecture.
