*This morning began with a VIPKID workshop for new teachers. It was very informative, and gave me some direction on how I can be spending my time while I wait for students to sign up for my class slots.
*I enjoyed spending time outside today, finding lots of squash, and seeing new flowers blooming, like the gladiolus. These flowers always remind me of my Grandma West. I don’t specifically remember them in her yard, but I remember being told they were one of her favorite flowers. I can see why. They are very unique. Grandma West lived in Orofino, Idaho, and each summer we would go there and spend a week. It was usually in August. More than her flowers, I remember her vegetable garden. The soil in Orofino had a very distinct smell. I also remember the smell of her tomato plants. It was always fun being at Grandma’s house in the summer.
*What a joy it is to prepare meals with vegetables from the garden. For dinner, I prepared lamb chops, Paul grilled some zucchini with the butter and herbs, garlic and Parmesan cheese that was delicious. We also had a fresh tomato and avocado salad.
