Here's a secret: Chinese take-out is the official 'food for thought.' It's rich and secretive and likes to hide various layers of taste in different spots on your plate. When you try it in the comfort of your own home, go slowly, allowing it to unfold its spices and strike up foreign conversations with your taste buds. For greater enjoyment, be sure to save some of it for a small feast the following day. Like great cheese and expensive wines, it ages well and will wake up the next day feeling slightly refreshed and exceptionally delicious.
Oh, and always watch out for food poisoning.
I'm in the middle of urging myself to take my stitching project to the next level. I got the basic pattern for the outline from www.feelingstitchy.com and was excited by the results (shown below). But then, unsure of the next step, I set aside the piece of fabric and have been actively ignoring it ever since. In fact, I took it out today to take a photo of it and I think the floss looked genuinely excited to see me. I quickly snapped a photo and put it away again. No sense getting its hopes up. I probably won't actually attack it with creativity again for several days.
The photo is unnaturally annoying to me as, in my haste, I neglected to set the correct white balance which is why it appears so blue in color. But can you really blame me? I needed to avoid that feeling of guilty neglect that projects often throw your way when you see something you haven't worked on in a while. Ah well!
