Today's lunch was nice enough that I thought I would put off work a bit longer and type up the recipe: Green Soup of Yumminess )

In other news yesterday's adventure was going to a Really Weird Museum with an old friend, her partner, and his grandkids. My mother had told me that I really needed to go to this museum, and I told her I don't care for modern art. My friend with whom I did adventures on Sunday said that I should really go, and I considered it. When the person said "would you like to join us, we are going?", I said yes. I have determined that the venue is nice and I am not the target audience. I did like the little iphones programmed with the museum catalog they hand to visitors. Hit "update location" each time you enter a room and it tells you what art is nearby, who made it, and what the museum owner thinks of it, +/- whatever other information they decided to include. Pity that the only things in the building which had any beauty were the sandstone walls and some of the ancient Egyptian art they have. But it was great fun wandering around and visiting with my friend while I mostly ignored the stuff on display.

In the evening my apprentice came over and showed me her projects in progress. It was great fun catching up with her, and I would love to get my hands on some of that nice blue silk/wool blend she is making a Byzantine underdress from. While she was here I got a call from [livejournal.com profile] archinonlivesaying he has just dropped off the form that the migration office in Sweden asked him for. He got the request in the mail on Monday, and he could have turned it in on Tuesday, but their office is closed to the public on Tuesdays, so he turned it in on Wednesday, which is still way faster than if he had posted it back to them. Now we wait for them to read all of the pages and make the decision.

Tonight I will be joining some of the local SCA folk at a school demo/banquet/dance. We have been doing stuff with this school for many years--they do a section on the Middle Ages for one of the grade levels each year, and the program always ends with a banquet that we help out with. It is much fun, and I am looking forward to seeing a few friends there.

But between now and then I have work to do, so I had best post this and wash my soup bowl...

Today I am meant to be working
