September sweeps by

Been fairly domesticated past one month trying to cook simple meals whenever I can. Definitely inspired to try out more dishes with an oven come October holidays. Other than that, work has been keeping me busy enough, close to 10 hours a day for three weeks is having me plop right into bed as soon as I'm home. The photo a day for a year project is sadly at a standstill, I'm not ready for such a committment heh...

All that is over and now the parental units are in town for 2 weeks. We're headed to Shaoxing this weekend for some needed nature walks and voraciously inhale fresh air laced with Osmanthus fragrance. Hopefully autumn will make herself comfortable this time so that we can scour neighbouring places for more nature walks. Yearning for a juxtaposition to my stormy moods.

Spanish lessons are officially starting in October 13! DL and I have a bet - any of us able to hold a Mandarin/ Spanish for 20min conversation earlier will buy the other person a Nintendo Wii! No problemo, comprendo!

More when we get back from Shaoxing! Hablamos luego!
