Monday night – my peeps

Insanely busy day.. and it looks like it’s going to be that way for the next 3 weeks.. ugh.. I was on the phone or texting folks for work from 8am till about midnight.

Crazy start to the day, too. I set my alarm to 6L30 PM . instead of AM.. luckily Chai came in and scratched on the door at 7 askign for her food.. good dig !

I did take off   the evening to cook dinner wiht Gabe and Kristin.. we had a hard time firgureing out what to cook.. but we decided to go with a theme.. and tonights’ theme was ‘weird’

Gabe and I randomly bought a box of FuFu mix.. it’s some sort of African potato glop.. and thats exactly what it tasted like.. ..

On the back was a recipe for peanut butter soup.. so we made that too (it was delicious) .   We also made paninis which were great.

It was wonderful sitting ddown to eat like a human..

After dinner we decided to do a ritual sacrifice of an Easter peep.. If you haven’t tried this, you mist !

First put one peep on a plate..

Put it in the microwave and set the timer for 2 min or so..

turn the sucker on .. and watch !

It’s the incredible hulk peep !

But take it out.. and it’s hge ego deflates leaving a gooey slimy blob.. a cute one at least.

I feel like that peep right now.. so I’m going to bed..

Oh.. I had a great talk with Diane.. she’s really enjoying her program.. here’s anotehr dispatch from down south ..

Hi Everyone…

The program called “inner quest” started last night.  There are 32 participants from all walks of life….all yoga teachers although some may not be teaching at this time.  It is such an honor to be in Don & Amba Stapleton’s prescence again.  They are great human beings and totally compliment each other.  Don is this deep fun loving yogi who truly believes in finding the yoga within ourselves.  Amba is a kick ass yoga flow teacher who speaks her  mind (and swears!) and just the right moments.  The seem ageless to me however they are are probably in their 60’s.  Amba puts everyone to task when it comes to push ups.  Outstanding experience thus far.

 We begin with a 6-8 am class.  Starting tomorrow there is an optional meditation at 5:15.  We have break from 8-11.  Today we walked to town (10 minutes ) and got fruit and veggies from the veggie truck.  They come twice a week.  I have just finished breakfast of half a papaya with yogurt banana and mango on top.  Yum.

Our more active leaning session then is 11-2.  That happens next.  Another break from 2-6:30 then back to an evening session of 6:30-9:00.

I am happily into the heat.  It did take time to get accustomed.  Thank you Beckett for getting me here earlier.  I normally would not have done that.  Last night was warm and I moved me bed right under the fan.  Usually it is cooler and breezier after midnight.

Gary…called Garunda by Sho…is the animal/reptile repositioner.  Another roommate Lori arrived late last night.  She was greeted by a scorpion in her shower.  Gary did the honors of moving it.  Exciting.

Well…I am off to cool off in the pool before we return to class.  Kathy, I hope you get this email.  I did not have your email before.

Love to all!   …diane

that’s it for now..
