Finishing objects

[legalmoose]

Slept for shit last night, between eating too much Chinese food and the knee still setting down. So today was lots of video game grinding, then I watched a couple movies while finishing a dish cloth I was working on to try out some color work before I tackle a blanket in a similar pattern. But first I need to finish a shawl I've been working on.

Was sorely tempted to take advantage of Brooklyn Tweed's going out of the yarn business sale, but I don't need to spend the money right now, and I definitely don't need any more yarn guilt.

Stomach's calmer, so here's hoping sleep will be easier. The husband is out of town with his sister to commemorate their Mom's passing during the beginning of the COVID pandemic, which leaves me plenty of knitting time.

In all honesty, authentic Chinese food is the way to go. But the authentic stuff is the hard stuff to find. I prefer sichuanese. Run these through google images and then google translate: Fuqi feipian, la zi ji ding, kou shui ji. These are not especially spicy but they are good.

Yesterday I had some good dimsum in singapore airport.

Regretfully I cannot get good Chinese food where I live now. I was spoiled for many years with three fantastic Chinese sit-down restaurants within ordering distance of my apartment, but here all it is is the really cheap stuff (the Chinese diaspora out of DC fled to the northwest suburbs and I'm more directly northeast of the city). I have a soft spot for Taiwanese cuisine, having lived there from 1992-1993 studying Mandarin (which I've mostly forgotten at this point).
