Bah, I'm pretty sure I messed up on the presents by overestimating reading levels. Good thing there's still a couple of days left - back to the bookstore tomorrow. Today was clothes shopping. Meh. If such a large percentage of Americans are obese and it's a terrible crisis(tm), why is it that every mall has at least 30 clothing stores for skinny people only and 1 segregated Fat Woman Store with a lousy selection?
I have hopes for eshakti later, as their catalog looks quite fetching. (Neither cheap nor quick, though, oy.)
Dinner: salmon baked in hoisin-soy sauce plus roasted fingerling potatoes with rosemary and garlic. Verdict: tasty but sauce somewhat overwhelming. Try with rice next time. My attempt to pan-roast garlic was a dismal failure, all the cloves were burnt and bitter. Not sure what I did wrong.
Trip and I watched the first three episodes of Adventure Time, and we are, well, baffled. What is the appeal? Everyone on Tumblr was burbling about the show for months, so I figured it must have clever storytelling, but... (To be fair, I was slightly baffled by Steven Universe for the first few episodes too. But not this much.)
