blodeueddThe day I went to Ome to see the plum trees this year happened to be the 14th of March, which is White Day, and also the anniversary of my divorce. In a happy coincidence, I had some coupons for 50% off a large dessert at Coco's (the family restaurant, not the curry place!), so Kimberly, Jamie and I decided to go stuff our faces after having admired the natural beauty of the blossoms.
Here I am, proud divorcée of one year! (It's so odd to think of it like that; it seems so far removed. Like, I was married? Really? Me?!)
According to the menu, this was a mud pie, except... there wasn't any chocolate involved! There was hot caramel sauce to drizzle over it, though, and a whole lot of ice cream. And marshmallows! Yum. <3
Even after that huge pile of sweet stuff, Jamie was still hungry, so she broke open the jar of wasabi pesto she'd bought in Ome. I also bought one, but have been using it sparingly. It's really tasty on plain pasta!
In other news, I almost succeeded in doing all of Inui-sensei's exercises correctly this evening! I was doing so well, until I screwed up on the last glissade-assemblé bit. But still, it was a victory for me to managed those passé jumps. For once, I didn't look like a spastic frog doing them. XD Also, Inui-sensei has stopped trying to pull my ribcage up past my shoulders, so presumably my posture has improved to his satisfaction. Now he comes around mainly to re-angle my hips and to poke my lower abdomen, to get me to tighten the muscles there. Mada mada da ne...
I've just eaten a slice of the blackberry pie Jamie and I made the other day, and it's time to get myself to bed. Sweet (blackberry) dreams, everyone! ^_~
