vivienToday was the Multicultural Festival at school - I'm still picking confetti out of my hair from the cascarones. These are traditional Mexican party tricks in which you fill an empty eggshell with confetti and smash it over people's heads. Much silliness. I also have a really, really cool henna tattoo - nearly the entire staff does. One of our Sudanese moms came with her henna supplies and gussied us up. Here is mine:
She did it in about three minutes. The others got much more elaborate ones, but I asked for something small ;) Looking at the picture, I am seeing how well the exotic tattoo goes with my oh so vanilla blue cardigan sweater.
Right now the Westminster Kennel Club dog show is on - watching it is an eleven year tradition for P and me. We cheered when no poodle one last night. I don't recall this ever happening. Like Miss Texas in the Miss America pageant, there's always a freaking poodle in Best in Show. So far we are rooting for the Pyrenees - gorgeous dog. But tonight is our favorite night - the hounds and working dogs. We are such geeks.
I wrote something over the weekend that I am really proud of. For Mways, of course, but done with research and leaps of imagination that made me, well, gleeful. (I was writing about New York City Below). Sometimes stuff works. Even if I don't like my writing because it is clumsy and sad in comparison to others, I have good ideas sometimes.
I did not eat anymore cupcakes today.Just honey almond cakes from Sudan and a brownie.
