eleanorjaneHaven't done one of these for a bit. Oops. :)
1. I have discovered that you can make quesadillas very quickly in a sandwich press. This is awesome news, because I love quesadillas, but I do not love cooking them because they flop everywhere. This is a total win, and means I just had a cheese-and-corn quesadilla for breakfast. \o/
2. For her 70th birthday last year, I gave my mother an IOU for two business-class plane tickets to New Zealand - four years of a transpacific relationship gave me a lot of frequent flyer points. ;) She and dad are there right now, and by the sounds of their last email they're having a lovely time.
3. My parents will be away for my birthday, so they gave me my gift early: it's a framed panoramic photo of London, taken in about 1957 from the top of the Natural History Museum. (Dad worked there before he went to University.) They have a larger version of the same photo hanging in their living room, and they got a smaller copy framed for me. This photo doesn't do it justice, thanks to the light leaking in from the adjacent window, but it's lovely.
