sis is in the dominican republic this week for a getaway and i'm stuck here in old rainy virginia with nothing to do. i remember having this same feeling as a kid when sis would go to piano lessons and i would have to stay home.
i have the entire week off work and no sis to talk to, no blinking computer from one of her routine "morning sis" IMs, and no use for my speed dial #5. what to do?
in the absence of entertainment from sis, i've decided to make a list of things i plan to accomplish this week. they are mostly culinary. obvi.
- break bread (well not really, just make it from scratch)
- cook a fabulous dinner that reminds me of autumn
- make an apple tartlet
- stalk down the room # to the hotel sis is staying at, hoping she'd be as excited to hear my voice as i hers
- get brother to eat homemade pumpkin ravioli
- stir up a batch of lemongrass coconut soup for the neighbors (by their request)
- make these owl cupcakes for the trick-or-treaters
- find a halloween costume
- hop on a plane to the dominican and find my long lost sis
- convince peg to buy one of these pups
