Just wanted to say hi. I don't have a lot to say this week, except that I have some very weird obsessions. Take yesterday morning for instance. I don't know why, but I was up at around 5:38 am and it made me start thinking about some dried thyme that I had been hankering for. No I didn't want to eat it straight out of the bottle, but I wanted to refill my bottle and on Friday, I was unable to find anything at the store. True, I didn't know what it was called, but honestly, I couldn't find a bottle of it. I was able to find the ground stuff, but I wanted the dried leaves. I had about a tablespoon left in the bottle that came with the spice rack I had gotten a few years ago.
So when I woke up on Saturday morning, I searched the internet to find what it was called, as I did not know what it was called. I knew that I didn't want the ground stuff, of which I already have, but I honestly prefer having the dried stuff, as the stuff smells amazing when you bake it with something like Shepherd's Pie. Anyways to make a long story short, I was able to find something and went to the store at about 6:30 am to purchase it, only to find it at the grocery store shelves that I regularly go to at about $2 less than what I paid for at the store that I purchased it at.
Reading wise, the week wasn't that great, although I got Doris Goodwin's amazing biography on Lincoln this past Tuesday and am looking forward to reading it. I am hoping that this coming week is much better than last week. And the blogging wasn't that great either...
