Monday, 22 July 2013

I got up a little late this morning, so I only took the time to take out the plastic bottles to the recycle bin. If my count wasn't off (I was, after all, counting in Hebrew), I put 56 bottles in there!

I taught only 4 units today: 9:00-10:30 and 5:00-6:30.

We ate lunch at 9 Bar today, the mostly meat (but definitely NOT kosher) restaurant located next to Café Greg at Ice Park. We split a vegetarian pad thai, and I also ordered their "nacho chips", just to see what they'd be like. Let's just say that they definitely had NOTHING to do with anything similar to nachos. What they were were barbecue-flavored corn chips. The dips that came with them were a little weird, too: some kind of soft cheese instead of sour cream, guacamole that was almost right but a little bland, and salsa that was vaguely Mexican but with the wrong spices, probably more Mediterranean. Oh well, I just had to know!

We drove up the Arava as far as Samar and then back after lunch.

I started the process of orchestrating my setting of Eli Eli today. I didn't get very far, but I'm sure it will be good in the end. And the most important thing is that I'm getting back to working my my orchestra album, which I've been neglecting for some time now.

After my last class we went over to Ice Park again and had frozen yogurt. When we returned, we sat for some time on the bench by our building, enjoying the pleasant summer warmth and giving lots of love to T'hila, our neighbor boy's wonderful cat. She is so nice!
