did somebody die?

Mike’s been busy and is working long hours. I don’t cook during the week. To alleviate the problem that this presents, we spent the day cooking comfort food for the week. We’ve made the 100% switch to brown rice, which makes me feel even better about our choices for the week
1) green smoothies for the week (Spinach, Banana, Pineapple, Orange, blueberry)
2) mujadra (lentils, brown rice, caramelized onions)
3) vegetable fried rice
4) yellow rice and chicken (thanks for the recipe Mayra!) – the one non-vegetarian dish :-p
5) red beans and potatoes
what luck

On my flight to China over the summer, I barely slept at all. I spent most of my time looking out the window and watching the map on the seatback screen with our location. At one point during this time awake, I observed an incredible lake. I loved its extremely contorted shoreline, the super blue color and the complete lack of any evidence of human involvement. I wanted to parachute out right there and explore. Anyway, since then, I’ve been fixated on the idea of finding out where that lake actually is in hopes that I’ll have some random opportunity in my life to see it. Well, today, bored at work waiting on some stuff, I popped open google earth and voila!

Every now and then, I browse through my library of photos and for one reason or another I feel regret for not having put one of them on my blog. It’s as though once a certain amount of time passes, or if I have already blogged about related photos, it’s impossible for me to post it. Time to get over that.
Here’s a few shots from my time in China that I hadn’t posted:
