The semester is almost over!

This is just another set of updates. Nothing particularly interesting, but read it anyway if you like.

Today, I tried wild rice. I had it with some green lentils, butter, and salt. I shouldn't have done it. It has more flavour, a nicer texture, and is just better overall than every other rice I've ever had. The only problem is that it is 10x as expensive, even if you go to Bulk Barn on students'/seniors' discount day. I guess I can still eat the other stuff; I'll just save the wild rice for special occasions. What a horrible idea this was. I guess I just wasn't expecting it to be this awesome. Holy shit. I'm so sad that I'm full now because I want to eat more.

I bought an electric razor and I haven't looked back. It doesn't provide the best possible shave, but for the lack of razor burn, I wouldn't ask for more. I can now shave more than once a week! Next summer is going to be great.

Blue cheese is starting to grow on me. No, I don't mean that blue cheese is growing on some part of my body. I'm starting to be able to tolerate the taste of it. I made a tortellini casserole with spinach and blue cheese sauce. I already like the taste of blue cheese in a sauce, because for some reason it's amazing in a sauce and horrible on its own. When eating the casserole, sometimes there was more of a blue cheese flavour than others, and it didn't absolutely gag me. Maybe it helped that I used a very mild blue cheese for this sauce. Ciel de Charleviox, if you're curious. I was even able to take a small bite of it while cooking without having to set my mouth on fire. I might not end up liking the stuff, but might become okay with it.

I have nothing more profound to say tonight, so I'll wrap this up. Goodnight, world.
