promise not to stop when i say when

Last night's dinner was eeeeeexcellent. Salmon fillet with a little bit of teriyaki and a lot of brown sugar on top, baked at 300 for about 25/30 minutes over brown rice with some sauteed brussel sprouts mixed in. The brown sugar covered salmon was a big hit with Nate. He kept asking if there was more! Alas, only about a serving and a half each. Gotta stretch that $5 salmon fillet, you know!

I'm thinking I really need to get some new lighting for my food shots.

I didn't take pictures of my outfits for Monday or Tuesday. I did look nice, but I wasn't wearing anything that I hadn't worn before. Plus, I was kind of busy, so I let the picture taking slide. It happens.

I'm back to it today, because even though I've worn this outfit (in pieces) before, I added my skinny gray belt to my green (rabbit hair) sweater, to see how I liked it on me. I'm not super pleased, but I'm also not horrified at where it sits. I do think that the sweater needs to be longer to really pull off the skinny-belt-at-the-waist look, personally. I also think I need to get a shorter white tank, so there isn't a foot of tank top peeking out from under my shorter tops. Personally.

CARA Award nominations were announced yesterday, and I am so proud of the FSU groups! From my former group, All-Night Yahtzee's Dave Girtman was nominated for Best Mixed Collegiate Arrangement for 'You Found Me' by The Fray (go to the Yahtzee website to listen for a sample,) and the FSU AcaBelles were nominated for Best Female Collegiate Song and Best Female Collegiate Arrangement (by Kristina Rodriguez): Monster by Meg and Dia and Best Female Collegiate Solo: Alone by Heart (sung by Lauren Barreiro - check out her blog, Acalosophy!) Unfortunately, the AcaBelles don't have clips of the songs on their websites (psst, you should get on that!) but you can listen to Alone. For Monster, you'll just have to buy the album!

It's a beautiful day here in Seattle. Wish I was outside to enjoy it. Instead, I just stare sadly from the conference room window. (isn't the construction lovely?)
