Envious of those RAs, TAs, they have their own places in the school, a desk, a chair, a desktop, they can just leave their stuffs there, unlike me, have to carry everything to school and carry back. I still like to go to school every day, although I don't have classes every day, it makes me feel like part of something.
One of signs that we have grown up is our own time become more important, you can't ask for too much company from others, otherwise you would feel guilty, at least for me. I remember in high school, I could just ask my friends' company for a bathroom trip, a candy-shop trip, or even more simple, just a walk. But now, we can't do that, I can't do that. The other day, Xiaodandan and I went to gym together, but she finished earlier than me and had to wait for me, so our gym plan trial wouldn't work. My Mom often wishes it would be wonderful if she had twins thought it would be weird to have a twin sister. But now, I do wish I had someone as same as me, I want to cook, she would cook with me, I want to run , she would run with me, I want to go shopping , she would go shopping with me. When I feel cold, she would give me a big hug. Yesterday, when XGs was here, he asked what he could help with cooking, I told him, maybe he could just talk with me, it felt very good to have someone around listening to you , answering your very clueless questions. then I laughed, because I know there is a kind of job for accompanying old people, talking with them . Does that mean I am already old?
This guy was basically failed yesterday. It is true how much attention you pay to food, how much taste it gives back to you. So today, I re-made it, very carefully, very patiently.
For vinaigrette, I added some sugar, I used to use sweet stuffs( like sweet corns figs) for my salad, so it's OK no sugar added in vinaigrette, but if no sweet ingredient, it's good to add sugar. Also I removed Dijon mustard , use sherry vinegar instead of balsamic.
For bread, I increased the rate of butter and bread, carefully saute garlic in butter, not let it brown, mixed parsley afterwards before bread go into the oven.
For salad, add thyme, red onion( marinade it in vinaigrette ahead), as well as bacon.
For grilled tomato, carefully removed the seeds.
And it has to be served immediately after mixed with vinaigrette.
It is SOOO good, buttery crispy bread with juicy warm grilled tomato and bacon surprise. sK's comment on Bacon is ' everything is good with bacon' :)
Zhaozhao just called, I thought I would end up keeping silent for the whole day, I am often worried I would get aphasia if I didn't talk for long enough.
Boston's fall is such a beautiful season, I guess most of the love stories start in fall, here. Tomorrow, when it stops raining, I decide to start a relationship with myself, seriously.
