The last sentence of my last post was supposed to read, "Also, Matty and I have a coffee date...Night!".  But I don't think it came out that way.  I did wake up before noon (11:58), and around twelve-thirty Shmoo and I were walking toward downtown Atascadero.  Matty was wearing my favorite of his newsie caps (I really don't know what they're called, but 'newsie cap' gets the point across) and using his walking stick.  Yep, he has a walking stick.  It's handle is a lion made out of German silver (we named him 'Luven,' a spin off the German word for 'lion'), and it has his initials monogramed on it.  I know, he really is too cool.  He took me to The Bru, which we've now decided is our coffee house.  We'll be spending plenty of time there.
     So cool bloggers post photographs...so I took some photographs!

Melt some butter in a pan. Add sliced red onions; cook until softened. Add some corn and green peas; cook a while longer. Add a few spoonfulls of sour cream; mix. Add cooked pasta; cook until heated through. Put in a bowl, sprinkle with parmesan, and grind pepper atop it. Matty and I were listening to "Saint-Saens Piano Concertos 1-5 Klavierkonzerte" while I concocted this dish. It came out quite delicious, so I'll call it 'Pasta Camille" after Camille Saint-Saens. As a side note, when Matty first heard a portion of these concertos on the radio, he declared it the most beautiful music he had ever heard. Needless to say, I would highly reccomend it.

This is my good, long-time friend Corey Solberg modeling his two-by-two rib wool scarf. Obviously, a strip of my nasty carpet look good if it were tied about Corey's neck, but we'll just keep that hushed, and say that my scarf is an exquisite example of the sheer mastery of a fantastic knitter. I love going Dickens with my adjectives!

     I should study some now.  No, it's 12:57 in the afternoon, not the morning!  I would never be up at so ridiculous an hour...

Wow Sara! That pasta dish looks sooooo good!! Beautiful scarves also! I can't believe that was Corey Solberg! He's a hottie! (yes, I am incredibly aware how inappropriate I am...I gotta be me). :). Love you and love catching up on your blog! What a wonderful gift you have for writing!

Hi Aunt Jenny! You'll have to model your cravat for me next time I see you! By the way, I finally used that exercise video you sent me a couple days ago, and have been slinking and wincing ever since! It kinda feels like my legs are in a constant state of pre-spasm. But I certainly got a workout! Now all I need to do is...(guiltily glances at plate which, up until a half hour ago, held nachos)...yeah...

Hi RaRa!!
I'm listening to this artist that Uncle Jeff and I went to hear live. Her name is Rachel Platten and her song "54 Steps" is a song I think you would like. I don't know why, but as I was sitting here listening to her, I was flooded with thoughts of you :) Love you and hope to see you soon!
