It was rather cold today. Not frigid by any stretch, and in fact a beautiful winter day in Davis. The temperature stayed around fifty all day, with occasionally gusts that were strong enough to draw away all my body heat, and frequent enough to keep me from ever warming up completely. My classes are warm, however, which helps me enjoy going to class... Or at least pretend to.
I will be cooking a beef and vegetable soup tonight. I have never done this, but I think I managed to glean the general idea from my mother. I guess we'll see how it comes out. I picked up another cabernet sauvignon whilst shopping for vegetables. A 2002 napa valley, if that means anything to anyone out there. I've been keeping a little journal of the wines I've tried, but my palate is untrained, and the terminology is esoteric; mostly I'm keeping a list of names for future reference, so I don't buy the crappy ones again. Self teaching will always be one of my main modes of education, no matter how lofty my education may (though probably will not) become.
That's all for now. I need to begin dicing onions and browning beef.

I'm doing the same thing with the whole journal bit. Lofty expectations and discriptions bely and entirely utilitarian purpose.
