A weekend of dealing with minor chores & a trip to IKEA. It wasn't all that bad. The trip to the Swedish Mafia proved to be pretty straight-forward. We found what we needed and brought it home without going crazy.
I made marshmallows this weekend so we have been having lots of cocoa and hot buttered toast. It helps to make winter pass more easily.
Right now I am reading La Bella Lingua which is a sort of love letter to the Italian language and culture. It is written by a woman who has been studying/speaking the language for years. She attempts to explain all the subtle aspects of the language and what can be communicated with few words. It is definitely an irrational language and culture at times yet there is a rhyme & reason to things. One that might not make sense to some but seems to work in its way funny way. It is fun how certain words sort of unfurl on the tongue and are rather song-like.
