อูมามิ

Tonight I went to a free concert hosted by the makers of อูมามิ seasoning. Several of the actors from my favorite Thai sitcom แฟกทอรีที่รัก were on stage during the evening. I was reminded that laughing is a good thing.

Responsibility

Today one of my students from last year joined me for lunch. It kind of surprised me because usually his lunch is the next period. It turns out he was skipping class to finish an assignment on the topic of being responsible.

Pies

This evening I made a pumpkin pie and two pecan pies (without Corn Syrup). Tomorrow I get to taste them. I’m a little nervous. I was unable to use the recipes I was familiar with (due to a lack of ingredients), and it had been awhile since I’d done any baking.

Things didn’t go as smoothly as I would have hoped, not that anything went wrong. Navigating a kitchen not my own was trickier than I had anticipated. Things like opening cans and turning on the oven proved far more challenging than they should have.

The pies look fine and smell great. Oh, for tomorrow.

Ubon’s Autumn

It would be true to say I haven’t written for a while.

Recently I have been enjoying cooler weather (and three days off school). I have had the pleasure of some rather autumnal walks. I love long sleeves and cool breezes. I like stepping on dry fallen leaves (there are a few trees that seem to be shedding more leaves then usual right now). I like wide blue skies.

It is a bit of a bummer to know that none of this is a prelude to snow or other such frostiness.

In other news, the mother spider of Ubon is taking a leave of absence. She’s going stateside to support her parents in the various tasks that arise from her father’s weakened state. She will be missed for the season. God will be good for all time.
