Early post today because I'm not sure I'll be able to get to the computer in the evening.

Here is the place to tell us about your daily success (or the lack of it)!

May the magic be with us all!

Got stuck (almost) finishing a writing assignment yesterday--I'm winding down my work and not taking new assignments. But this was a favor, it seemed simple: copy editing and proofing for a new website, and of course I ended up having to do a lot of re-writing... anyway they're paying and I'm almost done.

Still looking for the right prompt for my Easter story. There's one that's so ridiculously bad , I mean really unusable, that I've been thinking about grabbing it and turning it into a tongue-in-cheek epic (short epic) poem based on "Der Zauberlehrling" (Sorcerer's Apprentice). I dunno though, maybe I'd better sleep on it, this could just be a result of cabin fever. Where is my spring????? We're supposed to get snow tomorrow.

Off to get groceries now, progress report tomorrow.

Isn't that the way it always is? You think it's going to be easy and it turns into an epic task.

Good luck with your Easter prompt.

At least Easter is late this year, I have a bit of time to figure out what I want to do!

I'd be love to see that Zauberlehrling-inspired poem come to life. *g*

I'm leaning towards it--though god knows very few people will have a clue what's going on :)

I'm all uptight and tense about the snow we're supposed to get Sunday too.
It's made me think of something to write about though.
So what are you planning on cooking once you're safely back home? I'll put it into my story...

I don't love cooking, so I look for easy dishes with a lot of flavour. Last night we made this Yakisoba:

I used mushrooms instead of pork though and added some red pepper. I hardly ever have mirin, so I just use a little white wine with a pinch of sugar. Totally inauthentic but excellent taste :)

If it doesn't work for your story, any pasta dish will do!!

The sun is shining right now, I guess all the excitement will start at 4 PM :(

Yakisoba works for me!
I've long wanted to try that recipe--I'm glad to hear that it's a good one.
