I often eat soup from the PSU food court because it is the only meal you can buy for under two dollars. It's usually pretty good; they have stuff like pozole and split pea with ham. So one day after class last week I went to the food court with Randi May and got beef and vegetable soup. She chose vegetarian sushi. As I was eating, I started noticing little sort of pale rubbery bits in my soup. I assumed it was just fat, and kept eating. Then I got a big chunk of it in my spoon, about the size of my spoon. It was too big and chunky to be fat. I held it up to examine it. Not fat. Blood vessels. Two or three little macaroni-sized tubes jutted out of the mass of greyish tissue like the arteries of a tiny heart. I looked at it. Randi looked at me. She said, "You got a heart for Valentine's Day!"
For Valentine's Day, my sweetie fixed up my bike, made me a wiener dog out of erasers and thumbtacks, and gave me an excuse to bake a cake. This guy is far out!
I made a pink strawberry cake from a box. Kevin helped. I made a rectangular cake and cut it in two to make layers, and frosted and filled them with chocolate frosting from a can. I decorated it with conversation hearts and boston baked beans. I am still amazed when I try to do something like bake a cake and it actually works. Cake is good for breakfast.
And now I have a rain bike that isn't totally gimpy. Kevin replaced the giant Pee Wee Herman cruiser bars on my Stumpjumper with regular straight ones, and replaced my stupid dork locking skewers with quick release normal ones. I feel so much better about myself now.
