The flat people promised to wire us up to the outside world today, so we can operate this project from home, instead of the hobo lifestyle at the library.
No wierdies today, so far
I made us our first cooked meal last night, a pasta sauce, exactly as I would in the UK. The US version tasted nothing like it.
Chorizo
Fennel
Brown onions
garlic
paprika
s&p
splish of red wine
tomatoes
basil
I had to swap brown for white onions, used elephant garlic and the chorizo was a bit dry and not too flavoursome. We have a bunch of places to find good ingredients so I can try again. Everything here has high fructose corn syrup, I must find a dentist!
If you ever have to live here, avoid shopping in Safeway. It is one shelf after another of TV dinners, processed food, poor fruit and veg and lousy bread
People here of all ages wear their shorts just above the knee, with belts and WHITE socks pulled right the way up and WHITE trainers. They look like they fell out of a '70s Freemans catalogue. I tried to buy shorts. I'm still trying.
