I think we can live out of our refrigerator and pantry for the next week or so. Despite eating nothing but leftovers Sunday and Monday there are still enough supplies inside to keep us in good food for a long while. I’m hoping that everything lasts as long as it takes us to get around to eating it.
Yesterday at work I brought some extra cookies that we got from one of our guests on Saturday night. They are ginger thins from IKEA, and so I thought I’d share with my students. The highlight was serving them to the Swedish guy who joined the company in April. He said they actually are quite traditional in Sweden, and people there love to make their own and eat them. The American guy serving Swedish cookies to the Swede in Japan – what an odd situation.
I’m hoping to get a jump on vacation planning soon – I need to pop the question to the HR department to see if it is OK to take a long(ish) holiday during the summer. I’ve just got to find the right timing to ask…
