- Three inches of my hair have been trimmed off and now it's layered again and looks like a normal person's hair instead of a crazy moor-roaming woman's. I don't live anywhere near a moor, but that's what I'd like to imagine how it looked at the time.
- I'm behind in all of my reading! What else is new?
- Today consists of making a raw blueberry tart with a pretty lattice covering, as well as a Christmas-eve-eve dinner with my mother's family and a lovely lunch with Meg.
- Have I mentioned how much food I've eaten since I've returned? Even though they don't like to openly admit that they're extremely Italian in their ways, my mother's family force feeds you if you look skinny. "Oh, you look so good! Eat this entire shovel full of vegetables and bread--it's gluten free, I bought it just for you, honey--and oh my, look I guess I made some dessert!" Or, in my aunt's case, "Look, no one's around," and commence pouring a very healthy glass of wine. Not that anyone cares, we just pretend it's like sneaking around. As much as I love cooking, I do enjoy having meals prepared for me.
- I need to go on a run after lunch.
- And also take photos because this is getting ridiculous.
- There's a lot of snow outside, finally. And I heard of that storm in the midwest that I missed. Really?
Author's note: This was from awhile ago, I guess rereading it brought some laughter to my empty apartment. I'll post an update from Rome in a little while. Meaning tomorrow, most likely, or later today. --Fallon
